Chapter One

Agent Celeste Zhao left it all behind two years ago. The Green Berets, the military life, everything. If she worked behind a desk analysing numbers for the CIA, then she wouldn't have to ever see conflict again. That was the idea.

Enter Task Force 141. With a new terror threat on the rise involving a biological weapon and shady transactions, the CIA sends Celeste as part of a joint task force between American military operatives and the 141. What lies in store for Celeste is violence like she's never seen, high stakes, and a mysterious man behind a mask.

Will she be able to heal old scars, tend new wounds, and find herself again?
