Dodging bullets was never part of the deal.

Max Kline thought he had retired from the battlefield, but when negotiating the sale of his friend's tech company, he's thrust back into the line of fire. Literally.

The company's powerful new software has the potential to upend the global economy, or worse, if it falls into the wrong hands-- and it's missing.

Now Max must recover the code, but he is not the only one searching. A mysterious fanatical group has their own motivations and they're playing for keeps. Whatever the risk, he knows that he can't let them win.

When the architect of the code turns out to be an old flame and she get's caught in the crossfire, his only exit strategy might cost more than he is willing to pay.
