Mika Vance used to protect presidents from a thousand yards away.
Now she is a disgraced former Secret Service counter-sniper, blamed for a tragedy that destroyed her career and left her unable to forget the one life she failed to save.
Then Geneva calls.
Hired to protect a climate-data whistleblower during a tightly secured international summit, Mika expects one difficult assignment and a quiet exit. Instead, every protection team in the city receives the same authenticated command:
Execute your principal.
Within minutes, trusted bodyguards are turning their weapons on presidents, ministers, and diplomats. Secure communications fail. Motorcades become traps. Security systems begin working against the people they were designed to protect.
And Mika discovers that the attack isn't coming from an ordinary terrorist network.
It is buried inside the allied security infrastructure itself-a forgotten continuity protocol designed to preserve governments after catastrophic attacks, now repurposed to destroy them from within.
With Geneva collapsing into violence, Mika must keep the whistleblower alive while navigating compromised agents, a mysterious former security chief, and a conspiracy that appears to have anticipated every move.
The clock is running.
Six minutes may be all she has to stop the first kill order.
