Takedown cover

In a gripping narrative, Scot Harvath faces a deadly enemy after a catastrophic attack on America in Takedown, racing against time to uncover the truth.

In Takedown, readers are thrust into a fast-paced and gripping narrative that follows the journey of Scot Harvath, a former Navy SEAL turned covert counterterrorism agent. As the story unfolds, America finds itself facing an unprecedented threat, having inadvertently attracted its most dangerous enemy to its shores. The stakes are high as the nation grapples with the aftermath of a meticulously coordinated attack on the 4th of July weekend, resulting in the destruction of critical infrastructure in Manhattan. With thousands of lives at risk, the urgency of the situation escalates dramatically.

Amidst the chaos, while domestic efforts are focused on search and rescue operations, a lethal team of foreign soldiers infiltrates the city with a singular goal: to locate one of their own. This man is so powerful that the U.S. government is willing to go to great lengths to keep him hidden from the world. As the tension mounts, Scot Harvath emerges as the last line of defense against this formidable threat, navigating the burning streets of Manhattan in a desperate race against time.

Takedown is a thrilling exploration of courage, loyalty, and the relentless pursuit of justice. As Harvath battles through the turmoil, he must uncover the truth behind the attack and confront the shadows that threaten to engulf the nation. This adrenaline-fueled narrative promises to keep readers on the edge of their seats until the very last page.
