Trapped behind enemy lines. Brutally tortured and threatened with death. And the worst is yet to come. . . .
Marcus Ryker has spent his whole life protecting others, first as a Marine, then as a Secret Service agent, and finally as a clandestine CIA operative. But this time it's his own life that's in danger.

When a routine advance trip along the Israeli-Lebanese border goes horribly wrong, American operatives are ambushed and captured by a rogue Hezbollah special forces team.

For the White House, it's a nightmare scenario. If Marcus and his colleagues are tortured and executed on live television, the president will have no choice but to embroil the American people in yet another war they have no stomach for and likely can't win.

Marcus now faces a life-or-death battle, and the odds of survival are narrowing by the hour. Escape seems impossible. Rescue is a quickly fading hope. All Marcus has to rely on is his training, his experience, and his faith.

The odds of survival are narrowing.
Escape seems impossible.
Rescue is a quickly fading hope.
With time running out, he must fight with every instinct he has, because if he can't save himself, he can't save his friends.
