When the dust settles, Jack is one of the few operators still standing, and the Campus's de facto leader. But the fight is just beginning. As tensions escalate, Jack's mysterious adversary executes a brilliant campaign to paralyze the American government, even as China inches closer to invading Taiwan. With the odds stacked against him and no help in sight, Jack and his shattered team must stop the world's two remaining superpowers from stumbling into war. Every operation has a cost. This time the bill might just be too high to pay.
