Jamie Tulloch is a successful executive at a top technology company, a far cry from the tough upbringing that propelled him to such a rapid rise.
But he has a secret… Since the age of 23, he has been aided by Project Legend, a covert intelligence effort that prepares undercover agents with impenetrable backstories. Real people, living real lives, willing to hand over their identities for a few weeks in exchange for help with good jobs, influence, and opportunities.
When he finally tapped his shoulder, it was followed by a thump on the body. Arriving at a French airport to hand over his identity, Jamie discovers that his main contact is dead, the agent who was supposed to break into his life is AWOL, and his escape options are non-existent.
On a deadly mission in hostile territory, Jamie must contend with rogue Russian generals, arms dealers, elite hackers, CIA tactical operations, and the discovery of brewing war plans. He must convince skeptical mission leaders that he can do the job of a highly trained field agent, while using his life story as a convincing cover that is dangerously beyond his capabilities.
Can Jamie pull off the feat, avoid being killed, and avoid a deadly global conflict?
