Driven by his professional code of duty and honor and a vow to avenge his fallen comrades, Scot Harvath, ex-Navy Seal and surviving agent doesn't believe the Fatah is responsible for the attack. His search for the truth raises the blood pressure of his superiors...and casts hisown life in mortal jeopardy. Framed for murder and on the run, Harvath goes for broke and takes his own brand of justice to the unlikeliest place of all--the mountains of Switzerland. There he finds an ally, Claudia Mueller of the Swiss Federal Attorney's Office. Together they brave the temperature and heights of Mount Pilatus and enter the den of the most notorious team of professional killers the world has ever known. 20250925.
