Robert
O’Leary is a family man now, happily living in Thailand with his two
sons and wife Mina – and his extended adopted family. Fishing and
teaching the boys baseball occupy most of his leisure time.
It’s been several years since he found
himself in the middle of a bloodbath to avenge the mistreatment of his
wife, and later to take down a psychopathic serial killer. The ghosts of
his past rarely make an appearance in his dreams now, and the killing
beast has not overtaken him in a long time. However, when his friend
Bruce Broderic calls on him for assistance in a new mission, despite
Mina’s objections, Robert feels obligated to at least hear Bruce out
before he refuses his request.
Bruce’s plan to declare war on the Muslim
extremists increasing their attacks in Thailand seems legitimate.
However, Robert can’t help but distrust his friend, even though they
fought side by side to bring down the German and Romanian presence in
Bangkok to deliver justice and closure for Mina, and to take down the
vicious Angel of Death. Robert knows that Bruce, a former CIA operative,
keeps secrets from everyone and never tells the whole story. To get
involved in another of Bruce’s schemes would mean getting in over his
head and destroying the trust he has built with Mina. He’d have to let
loose the beast inside him to kill again, and he knows he can’t afford
to do that. It almost took him down in a death spiral last time, and he
has too much to live for now. He has promised Mina the beast will never
come out again.
But then Bruce gets in serious trouble
when a rogue CIA agent double-crosses him and puts a death sentence on
Robert and all those he cares about. Robert knows he has to come to
Bruce’s aid and protect his family. No matter what his friend is mixed
up in, he owes him a debt of honor that must be paid, and in the process
chances losing his family. The stakes have never been higher, and
failure is not an option.
