When his brother is murdered investigating Isla de Cinque, a criminal island-state beyond the reach of any government, retired black-ops legend Joe Wylde must return to the world he left behind and battle cartels, assassins and rival intelligence agencies to stop a mysterious tech visionary from plunging the world into chaos.

SYNOPSIS:

Following years of black-ops missions, Joe Wylde has finally built the life he never thought possible—a family, a home, and a future away from violence. But when his younger brother Ben is murdered investigating Isla de Cinque, a criminal island-state beyond the reach of any government, Joe is forced back into the world he left behind.

On Cinque, cartels, mercenaries, intelligence agencies and warlords operate side-by-side under the watch of the enigmatic Mantegna Reyes, a masked tech mogul preparing to unleash Cerberus, a revolutionary cyber weapon capable of holding entire nations hostage. Determined to uncover the truth behind Ben's death, Joe finds himself caught between competing factions all fighting for control of the technology.

As old allies resurface and deadly enemies close in, Joe discovers that Reyes' ambitions extend far beyond profit. With Cinque descending into chaos and the fate of the world's critical infrastructure hanging in the balance, Joe must confront the ghosts of his past and the cost of the life he abandoned. To stop a global catastrophe, he'll have to become the man he swore he'd never be again.
