Summary
An Islamic extremist is on a quest for vengeance after his only son is killed, and it is up to Op-Center to stop his lethal plot. / General Bob Underwood, a special presidential envoy for The Global Coalition to Counter ISIL, is en route to the Syrian city of al-Bukamal when a rocket-propelled grenade strikes the side of his Humvee and the heavily armored convoy comes under attack. The general's bodyguard is murdered brutally, and Underwood himself is kidnapped. The president and top officials watch in horror from The Oval Office, hours later, as the general is beheaded viciously by an ISIL leader; broadcast on live television through a direct feed from Al Jazeera. The world is stunned by the bloody scene, but even more so because this supposedly loose-knit terrorist organization was able to orchestrate a lethal attack on the world's most powerful military. American forces go into high gear on land and sea to retaliate, but when the son of the ISIS leader is killed in an American bombing raid, his rage knows no bounds, and he determines to wreak vengeance on the American homeland itself. With everything in the balance, Op-Center must assemble both its domestic strike force, as well as its international intervention force ---- built around a seasoned squad operating out of the secretive unit that captured Osama bin Laden ---- to stay one step ahead of a ruthless enemy. --
