Publisher Description
Logan West returns in another break-neck military thriller as he uncovers a global conspiracy that threatens America's position in the international balance of power
'Crackles with authenticity' Matthew Reilly
'A brilliantly conceived thriller' Clive Cussler
Logan West and John Quick are sent to Alaska to investigate the possible presence of a Russian black ops team on a mission to steal American next-generation technology. The violent confrontation that follows triggers a global search for the stolen assets and threatens to pit the United States against China in a looming shadow-war and technology race.
As Logan, John, and Cole Matthews - the chief of the CIA’s Special Operations Group - battle their way through Spain, the Mediterranean and Sudan, an imminent threat arises at home that FBI Deputy Director Mike Benson must face: is it part of a deadly global conspiracy?
'Betley turns the screws with the relentless action, unbearable tension, and terrifying threats. One of the genre’s new stars.' Kyle Mills
'A high-energy tale that unfolds at a machine-gun pace … Betley has become essential reading.' Booklist
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Betley's exciting sequel to 2016's Overwatch takes series heroes Logan West and John Quick, investigators in a specialized FBI task force, to the Aleutians. They are hunting down members of a Russian black ops team. The Russians are seeking to steal technology code-named ONERING, a new U.S. weapons system that has the ability to hijack any space satellite. The theft is the plan of Namir Badawi, the head of Sudan's internal security division, who's determined to humiliate the United States and bring about glory to Sudan as part of a new world order. From Alaska, Logan and John pursue the bad guys around the globe, always one step behind Namir and Maj. Gang Lau, his Chinese spy henchman. Betley's fight scenes are among the best in the genre, but overuse of internal dialogue and unfunny banter between the principals slow the pace and add a cartoonish character to the writing. Still, readers willing to suspend some disbelief and put up with all the wisecracks will find the action diverting enough to look forward to future installments.
