Donovan Cross is the NIA’s legendary secret agent. He has been sent on dozens of missions in every corner of the globe and will stop at nothing to achieve his goal. Originally from Hawaii, Cross has not returned home in nearly 30 years. The unexpected death of his parents altered the course of his life. Instead of attending a prestigious college on a scholarship, he chose a path of spying and espionage.

When the Agency ordered him to return to his birthplace, he anticipated confronting painful memories of his parents’ passing. Unbeknownst to him, his presence on the island is crucial to addressing a sensitive global crisis: China’s imminent invasion of Taiwan. Hawaii is being used, shrouded in secrecy, to facilitate this invasion. The skills Cross has honed over the years and his knowledge of the island’s secrets will lead him and his newfound ally, the beautiful Jade Viper, on the thrill ride of a lifetime.

What if paradise wasn’t just a destination, but the frontline of the next world war?
