An all-new novella in the New York Times best-selling Net Force series, created by Tom Clancy and Steve Pieczenik and written by Jerome Preisler.

In Munich, a renowned computer scientist dies. Then, his daughter vanishes. Both under mysterious circumstances.

Kali Alcazar, a master hacker, wants to know why. As she delves deeper into the suspicious events, she spots something in the sky - a rare, advanced drone - and realizes she's a target herself. A group of mercenary assassins has been assembled with just one goal: to stop Kali from exposing a dark, world-changing secret. Stop her at any cost.

They're not the only ones who are hunting Kali. CIA man hunter Mike Carmody and his elite special-ops team are hot on her trail. Their task - bring her to Washington as an internationally wanted cybercriminal. But that simple mission suddenly becomes a lot more dangerous than they bargained for.

In this thrilling novella, the lines blur between hunter and hunted in a battle for tech dominance whose explosive outcome ultimately may decide the future of international security.
