Book Overview
John Angstrom is a decommissioned CIA field operative, damaged goods from a mission gone awry. He's placed into DARPA, a branch of the Pentagon charged with maintaining the technological superiority of the U.S. military. It's a landing spot for him-a career transition-someplace safe for a man who can no longer do what he loves, and what he is trained to do. His placement coincides with a groundbreaking event in DARPA's history: the crowdsourced design of a next generation Marine Amphibious Vehicle. Massive in scale, the effort pulls together top experts in the field, and submissions from the largest defense contractors around the world. Amongst all of those submissions, there is something significant-something that no one can see for what it truly is-not even Angstrom. His new role takes him in an unexpected direction, far outside the realm of DARPA. This description may be from another edition of this product.
