The Devil's Ransom A Pike Logan Novel By Brad Taylor

In Brad Taylor's latest thriller, Pike Logan finds himself thrust into a high-stakes race against time to thwart a devastating attack orchestrated by a cunning adversary with a deep understanding of America's vulnerabilities.

As Pike conducts what should have been a routine mission in Tajikistan, news of Afghanistan's fall sends shockwaves through the region. When tasked with extracting a crucial asset from the chaos, Pike uncovers a chilling revelation: his covert organization, along with other key entities in the Taskforce, has fallen victim to a crippling ransomware attack with ties to the Taliban.

As Pike delves deeper into the investigation, he realizes that the ransomware attack was merely a precursor to a much larger and deadlier scheme orchestrated by a former NSA specialist with a dangerous agenda. This turncoat seeks to plunge the world back into the era of the Cold War, using hackers from Serbia and Russia as his pawns.

With the clock ticking and the balance of power at stake, Pike must navigate a treacherous landscape of deception and betrayal to thwart the specialist's plans before it's too late. But as the adversary proves to be one step ahead, Pike's determination and resourcefulness are put to the ultimate test in a gripping battle for survival and national security.
