Book details
Overview
The towers fall. A ghost rises.
On the morning of September 11, 2001, America’s most classified operation is triggered. A former Special Forces soldier — haunted, hardened, and living off the grid — is pulled from the chaos and given a mission that will erase everything he ever was. His target: Osama Bin Laden. His cover: death.
Partnered with an elite CIA operative as dangerous as she is brilliant, Scott Walsh crosses into a world of shadows — from the shattered streets of New York to ancient capitals and unforgiving deserts where one wrong move means oblivion. Their pasts are landmines. Their mission is impossible. And somewhere between survival and sacrifice, something neither of them planned begins to ignite.
Operation Hawk’s Nest is a thunderous, globe-spanning thriller about what happens when one man’s ghost becomes America’s last hope.
Description
The armies will come. The politics will follow. The window will close.
So they send one man.
September 11, 2001.
The Twin Towers are still burning.
As America watches in horror, a decision is made deep inside the United States government. Before the armies mobilize, before the speeches begin, and before politics takes over, a covert operation conceived years earlier for a moment no one could predict is quietly activated.
Its objective: find Osama Bin Laden, kill him, and disappear.
Scott Walsh was supposed to die that morning. He didn't. To the rest of the world, he is another survivor of September 11. The CIA sees something entirely different—an opportunity unlike any they have ever seen: a man who can disappear, and no one will ever question why.
Within hours, Walsh is offered a mission no government will ever acknowledge. If he accepts, he must surrender his name, his past, and even his children. Scott Walsh will cease to exist. The Hawk will take his place.
He will move alone through the world's most dangerous places, leaving no trace that he was ever there. No army can do that. One man can.
His only contact is a brilliant CIA operative whose own secrets are buried beneath layers of classified files. As the hunt for Bin Laden stretches across continents, Walsh begins to realize that the greatest threat may not be the terrorist he is pursuing, but the powerful people determined to shape the war from the shadows.
Some missions are designed to succeed. Others are designed to disappear.
Operation Hawk's Nest is the first novel in The Hawk Series—a geopolitical thriller that imagines the hidden mission behind one of history's defining moments and introduces the covert operative known only as The Hawk.
