He was trained to protect America. Now he’s the reason it might fall. After a covert mission in the Iraqi desert, Delta Force operator Vann Jackson returns to the US embassy in Baghdad—infected with a deadly, bloodthirsty virus.

As the infection spreads, turning military and civilian staff into mindless killers, panic erupts, command breaks down, and the embassy descends into chaos. Cut off from the outside world, the survivors—Marines, diplomats, and Delta Force operators—prepare to make a desperate last stand. But they’re not just fighting the infected. Back in Washington, power-hungry politicians have already decided—there can be no rescue, no witnesses, and no survivors. For those trapped inside the world’s most secretive embassy, the choice is simple—Escape the compound. Or die inside it.
