Jake Danner never wanted to lead a federal team—until he had no choice. When his former director vanishes and a smuggled drone nearly kills his partner, Jake is pulled into a covert mission involving deepfake weapons, military ghosts, and a threat bigger than anything he faced as a street cop. Now promoted to lead the Federal Threat Response Division, Jake must call on old allies—including a retired Navy operator and two cyber-intel legends—to stop a silent war being waged on U.S. soil. Packed with suspense, loyalty, and brutal consequences, Rogue Directive is the explosive first entry in a gripping new action-thriller series.
