A Hunter Kade Thriller
Hunter Kade broke the system once before.
Now the system is hunting back.
After exposing Black Flag and surviving the collapse of operations buried deep inside the intelligence community, Kade thought he understood the battlefield. He was wrong.
Because this time, the enemy isn't a rogue agency.
It's a living network.
Across Washington, hidden systems begin adapting in real time-tracking movement, predicting behavior, and coordinating kill responses before targets even know they've been seen. Entire city sectors become weapons. Surveillance becomes strategy. And every move Kade makes teaches the machine how to hunt him better.
Alongside Wolf, Harland, and Echo-the evolving AI that may be humanity's last advantage-Kade launches a brutal counterattack against the network's infrastructure before it fully awakens.
But someone inside the government is already preparing for the next phase.
Vice President Caldwell.
Ethan Cross.
And a classified program known only as Kill Chain.
As the city tightens around them and the rules of the hunt begin to change, Kade realizes the truth:
This war was never about stopping him.
It was about replacing him.
Perfect for fans of The Terminal List, American Assassin, and The Gray Man, Kill Chain Protocol delivers relentless tactical action, near-future espionage, AI warfare, and the next evolution of the Hunter Kade universe.
He taught it how to hunt.
