Matt Drake left Syria alive but broken. His last mission ended in disaster, costing innocent lives and crippling his closest friend. Now, haunted by guilt and determined to stay in the shadows, he is pulled back into a world he swore to abandon.
A Pakistani scientist working for an extremist group has built a weapon capable of mass destruction. He will defect only if Matt is the one to bring him out. To save thousands, Matt must return to the place that nearly destroyed him and face the ghosts waiting there.
Don Bentley’s Without Sanction, the first Matt Drake novel, is a taut and explosive thriller about redemption, loyalty, and the brutal choices demanded by duty in a world without mercy.
