About this listen
He was trained to protect America.
Now he’s the reason it might fall.
After a covert mission in the Iraqi desert, Delta Force operator Vann Jackson returns to the US embassy in Baghdad—infected with a deadly, bloodthirsty virus.
When he snaps in the embassy chow hall, the violence is brutal—and the contagion now unstoppable. As the infection spreads, turning military and civilian staff into mindless killers, panic erupts, command breaks down, and the embassy descends into chaos.
Cut off from the outside world, the survivors—Marines, diplomats, and Delta Force operators—prepare to make a desperate last stand. But they’re not just fighting the infected.
Back in Washington, power-hungry politicians have already decided—there can be no rescue, no witnesses, and no survivors.
For those trapped inside the world’s most secretive embassy, the choice is simple—Escape the compound. Or die inside it.

Story
In the freezing night sky over Nazi Germany, Harry Wakefield faces a terrible choice - jump from his crippled RAF bomber without a parachute or burn to death as it crashes to earth. Harry jumps...and survives the long fall with barely a scratch. Twenty years later, a powerful earthquake rocks the Berwyn Mountains in North Wales, waking Harry and his family from their sleep. Convinced that a plane has crashed on a nearby peak, Harry races up the mountain, only to discover the wreckage is not an aircraft. It’s something else entirely. And there’s a living, breathing survivor.

When you have to kill the same terrorist twice in one week there’s either something wrong with your world or something wrong with your skills - and there’s nothing wrong with Joe Ledger’s skills. And that’s both a good and a bad thing. It’s good because he’s a Baltimore detective who has just been secretly recruited by the government to lead a new task force created to deal with the problems that Homeland Security can’t handle....

America is under attack. Thousands lie dead after simultaneous strikes across the country. The day will come to be known as Bloody Monday. Jason Trapp, codename ‘Hangman’, was a covert operative whose feats became the stuff of legend. He was the tip of the spear—the man his country unleashed when all hope was lost. Six months ago, someone sold him out. The Agency listed him as killed in action. He lost everything—and everyone—he held dear. But Trapp’s not that easy to kill.
