In the year 2013, the United States faces a dual-front crisis involving high-stakes cyber espionage and physical sabotage. Net Force, the specialized FBI division tasked with securing the internet, must track a elusive group of hackers who have infiltrated the global communications infrastructure. At the same time, regional tensions in the Middle East escalate as a faction utilizes advanced technical weapons to disrupt military logistics and civilian safety. Commander Alex Michaels and his team utilize network forensics and field operations to identify the breach points within the virtual backbone before the disruption leads to a large-scale international conflict.
This book serves readers who follow technothrillers and military fiction centered on the intersection of national security and digital vulnerability.
