After three decades in counterintelligence, Brad Trasker is retired, disillusioned, and dealing with a tragic loss. Spy games are behind him until he attends the launch of a next-generation aircraft. When the project of innovative aerospace CEO Kylie Connor explodes on the tarmac--nearly killing her in the process--Trasker is pulled back into the line of fire.

The mystery of the sabotage quickly deepens. All Kylie's data has been wiped from the server. One of her engineers has disappeared. A seed investor has died in a suspicious car accident. And a cold-blooded murder raises the stakes even higher.

To discover who's pulling the strings behind a dangerous conspiracy, Trasker needs to find a motive. Corporate espionage, revenge, or something he can't yet see? Targeted by assassins, he finds himself overmatched when he realizes he can't trust anyone--including Kylie. Too long out of a game he no longer understands, Trasker must adapt or die.
