One secret could destroy a city…A covert operative is murdered on the streets of Tokyo, hunted down by a masked assassin and silenced before he can expose what he’s stolen.

With his final breath, he delivers a message that crosses continents: Get Jack Morgan.

Private detective Morgan arrives in Tokyo to find a city on edge.

As the investigation unleashes a chain of deadly events, it’s clear he’s stepped into something far bigger – and far more dangerous – than a single killing.

Could he be the next target?
