Mercury Rising (A Blake Barrett Thriller) - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

Blake Barrett thought he was done being someone else's weapon.

Operating under a stolen identity for months, the former covert operative has been hunting the shadowy Echo Syndicate—a conspiracy that reaches into the highest levels of American power. But when Iranian President Hassan announces nuclear disarmament in Tehran's Azadi Square, Barrett realizes the syndicate's true plan was never about smuggling or assassination.
It was about starting World War Three.
With a nuclear missile locked onto New York City and less than an hour before impact, Barrett and his Mercury team must infiltrate a hidden launch facility in the Iranian desert. But the deeper they dig into Echo's web of betrayal, the more Barrett discovers that some of America's most trusted leaders have been playing a deadlier game than anyone imagined.
Racing against a countdown that could reshape the world forever, Barrett faces an impossible choice: maintain his new moral code, or become the killer he swore he'd never be again. Because this time, the price of failure isn't just his life—it's the survival of civilization itself.
When patriots become traitors, who can you trust to save democracy?
