A software scatter-bomb planted in the trading software at the New York Mercantile Exchange. A software security engineer is killed. And the price of oil is dropping like a stone.

A helicopter pilot operating between the rigs in the Gulf of Mexico, Sam knows how the game is played. But this time, the stakes are life and death.
