A high-octane tactical thriller from veteran pilot and bestselling author C.W. Lemoine.Clint "MAKO" Lee had every reason to stay in the airliner cockpit. Long-haul 787 routes paid mid-six figures and kept him safely above the fight. But for a former F-16 pilot still haunted by the crash that took his fianc嶪, the routine felt more like a prison than a career.
When his old mentor recruits him to fly sheriff's helicopters along the Gulf Coast, MAKO jumps at the chance for real flying again. The quiet patrol work vanishes the moment a deadly wave of high-tech attacks begins targeting officers and infrastructure.
Drafted into a shadowy joint task force, MAKO is taken to a secured hangar and shown a sealed container. Inside sits a game-changing secret: a covert, ultra-classified rotary-wing prototype designated
AIR ONE.
Engineered in absolute secrecy to fight the next generation of aerial threats,
AIR ONE is the most advanced-and most dangerous-aircraft the task force possesses. But with MAKO still battling deep-seated trauma and an elusive enemy closing in, taking the controls of an unproven gunship may be the hardest mission of his life.
