Tier One

The newest gut-wrenching, high-stakes thriller of covert operations by Andrews & Wilson-the Wall Street Journal bestselling authors of Tier One. After a surprise assault on Task Force Ember's secret compound in Virginia by Russian covert operators, John Dempsey and his teammates are mourning their dead and trying to put the pieces back together. But in the ever-evolving world of shadow warfare, there is no respite for heroes or victims. Russian spymaster Arkady Zhukov, the mind behind the attack on Ember, is at it again-directing false flag operations to destabilize Ukraine and enable Russia to seize control of the Black Sea. The American President designates Arkady and his Zetas a clear and present danger to the United States. Dempsey and his team are tasked to systematically eliminate each and every Zeta agent around the globe. But when American and Russian covert operations collide in Kiev, the "new Cold War" goes from a simmer to a boil. Escalation ensues, bringing America and her allies to the brink of world war. Unless Dempsey and Task Force Ember can derail Russia's secret plans, the collateral damage could bring the world to its knees. Collateral is the sixth installment of the Tier One series-the highest-rated, most authentic, pulse-pounding covert operations thriller series on the market today. Tier One follows the life and operations of former Navy SEAL John Dempsey and Task Force Ember and is written by the WSJ, Audible, and Amazon bestselling coauthor team Andrews & Wilson. Perfect for fans of Tom Clancy, WEB Griffin, Robert Ludlum, Mark Greaney, Brad Thor, Jack Carr, and Tim Tigner.

The world is more volatile, unpredictable, and dangerous than ever before. To stop the architect of this chaos, Dempsey is given the most dangerous tasking of his career... a mission only he can complete against an adversary he must face alone. After Task Force Ember's successful intervention in Ukraine, John Dempsey disappears without a trace-with no notice or explanation given to his teammates. Spotty intelligence eventually places him in Russia where he is rumored to have been captured by the Russian FSB and is now presumed dead. Mourning his loss, Ember is forced to pick up the pieces, restructure, and continue their mission of keeping America safe. As the president's "go-to" black ops asset, Ember is directed to find and finish off the Russian spymaster Arkady Zhukov and any last remnants of Zeta cell. Unbeknownst to his teammates, Dempsey is very much alive and on mission. At the behest of Vice President Jarvis, he is deep undercover, in the heart of Russia's nexus of organized crime and politics. For his mission to succeed, he will have to team up with a man who has been his adversary, the one man in all the world he most wants dead. The risks are higher than ever as Dempsey pursues a high-stakes plot of Russian regime change. And if he fails, the Kremlin's retribution will be swift and terrible and certain to drag the world into World War III.
