From the New York Times bestselling author of STORMING INTREPID, Payne Harrison straps you in for a thriller unlike anything before!
Army Major Ross Jessup is at the tail end of his tour as commander of the Delta Force Sabre-Black Squadron. But then he receives orders recalling him to the Pentagon from Afghanistan. Perplexed by the summons, he reports to the lower basement of the building’s D-Ring; and there he meets a ‘retired’ three-star general who works directly for the President. The general offers Jessup the post as commander of an elite team. A team that deploys over the globe on singular missions – at the behest of the President. Missions that are astonishing, bizarre, unexplainable . . . and frightening.
Jessup accepts and takes command of the small but extraordinary unit – a group known only as ‘The Jedburghs.’ Shortly thereafter, they are deployed to the roof of the world in the Karakoram Mountains – along the disputed zone between India and Pakistan. There they confront a situation that is beyond belief and reason. For at 18,000 feet, entrapped in ice on the ledge of a snowy massif, lies a World War Two warship.
