Her very first mission is a code red: to take her team into the unaffiliated zone just outside InTech s borders and retrieve a stolen hard drive. It should be quick and simple, but a surprise attack kills two of her colleagues and Tanta barely makes it home alive. Determined to prove herself and partnered with a colleague whose past is a mystery even to himself, Tanta s investigation uncovers a sinister conspiracy that makes her question her own loyalties and the motives of everyone she used to trust.
