When satellite communications start failing worldwide and a kinetic strike destroys a Los Angeles skyscraper, Dave and the Agency team discover a Cold War relic called SOKOL has awakened. This Soviet-era orbital warfare platform, capable of hijacking satellites and turning them into weapons, appears to be under the control of cybersecurity expert Elena Baranova, who demands billions in ransom.
As Dave’s team races across remote deserts and frozen mountains to neutralise SOKOL’s ground control stations, they discover the system is more sophisticated than anyone imagined. With each facility they infiltrate, they learn that SOKOL wasn’t just designed to control satellites - it was built to evolve, adapt, and eventually operate autonomously, potentially unleashing catastrophic global strikes.
With time running out and satellites positioning for coordinated attacks on critical infrastructure worldwide, Dave must use his extraordinary abilities to reach the hidden master control facility. But as the true mastermind behind SOKOL’s activation is revealed, Dave faces a devastating threat even his invulnerability might not withstand.
