“Raiders of the Lost Ark meets Tom Clancy…an over-the-top, bullet-ridden good time.”—Scott Sigler, New York Times bestselling author Buried in the Peruvian desert, sealed beneath a Greek-inscribed stone, lies a legendary relic which may hold the key to life itself. By extracting its DNA, Richard Ridley of Manifold Genetics hopes to bio-engineer the ultimate weapon—an army of soldiers who regenerate and continue to fight without stopping. The perfect killing machines…“all of the danger, treachery, and action a reader could wish for.”—Steve Berry, New York Times bestselling author Enter Special Forces commander Jack “King” Sigler and his “Chess Team” of highly trained operators.
