JASON BOURNE: THE LEANER, MEANER JAMES BOND FOR THE 21ST CENTURY
From the explosive world of Jason Bourne emerges a new hero.
Adam Hayes has stepped away from the field for the very last time. He's promised his wife that he won't put his life on the line any more, and nothing will make him break that promise. Well... almost nothing.
With America withdrawing from Afghanistan and the Taliban closing in, Abdul Nassir reaches out to his old partner, Hayes. Ten years ago, Nassir saved the American's life, and the time has come for repayment. Nassir is desperate to get his family out of the country. He is scared of the Taliban... but he can't trust the Americans either: his daughter witnessed a massacre committed by rogue CIA contractors. That only leaves one man who can get them out of the country: Adam Hayes.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Set in 2021, Hood's hard-hitting fourth contribution to this spin-off series from the late Ludlum's Jason Bourne franchise (after 2022's The Treadstone Transgression) finds Adam Hayes, no longer an operative for the CIA unit Treadstone, working as a private security contractor in Mumbai, where he gets a call from Abdul Nassim, the Afghan army captain who saved his life 10 years earlier. Nassim has evidence—a photograph and a thumb drive—that an American CIA paramilitary officer, Dominic Porter, has been selling American weapons to the Taliban, but Porter is on to Nassim and will kill him and his wife and three children if Hayes can't get them all out of Afghanistan fast. Hayes heads into the chaos of the Afghanistan war's final days on an against-all-odds rescue mission. Because he's no longer allied with Treadstone, he's on his own, and it's a long grueling battle from beginning to end as he's pitted against the treasonous Porter as well as the deadly commander of the Taliban elite Blood Unit. Treadstone fans will get their money's worth.
