Cole Strider

Mankind has had many heroes. They're about to need a new one.

The most lucrative business venture in history has civilization teetering on the brink of cataclysmic transformation. And nobody sees it coming. Anyone posing a threat to the venture's success is being targeted...

A man plummets to a gruesome death. A scientist vaporizes. A brutal sadist enslaves a young woman.

Smart, adventurous friends – Aspen, Sequoia, Fox, and Breeze – share a colorful history. Back in their teens on the Ronopo Reservation, they swore a secret oath. That oath now compels them to seek the truth behind the recent, disturbing events. Dangerously unaware of what they are up against, they become entangled in personal and political intrigue across America and spanning the globe.

An unconventional champion will rise and strive to halt the disastrous venture; but no hero could possibly prevail alone. Will a highly covert Special Forces team emerge from the shadows to help? Or will a broken and dispirited world helplessly watch as a fallen hero is carried home?
