2019ril. Una missione che si trasforma in strage. Un complotto ai vertici del potere. Un eroe nascosto nell'ombra per portare a termine una terribile vendetta. Nel corso dell'ultima missione in Afghanistan per le forze speciali Navy Seal degli Stati Uniti, l'intera squadra del tenente -James Reece viene sterminata in una catastrofica imboscata, così come accade ai membri dell'unità inviata in soccorso. Ma quando anche le persone a lui più care vengono uccise il giorno stesso del suo ritorno a casa, Reece scopre che la scia di morte non è opera di un nemico straniero, ma di un complotto che ha radici ai più alti livelli del governo americano. E ora che gli hanno strappato via tutto, nessuno potrà fermarlo. Rimasto solo al mondo e libero da ogni vincolo, Reece si trasforma nell'incarnazione del detto «Non esiste uomo più pericoloso di chi non ha più nulla da perdere». Impiegherà tutte le proprie forze e le lezioni apprese nei dieci anni di missioni in territori di guerra al solo scopo di vendicare le morti dei compagni e delle persone più amate. Ma per raggiungere i suoi bersagli ai gradini più alti del potere, non potrà avere alcun rispetto per le leggi o per il codice militare.

2021br. Giulio Malacorda, imprenditore di successo, cade sotto i colpi di un sicario. Sonia, compagna ambigua e affascinante, è la prima sospettata ma non l'unica. Malacorda intratteneva rapporti con un sottobosco politico-affaristico e la sua azienda è coinvolta in un imponente traffico di rifiuti. Il vice questore Matteo Caserta vuole dare un senso a questa storia ma annaspa insieme alla sua sgangherata squadra. L'investigazione è un percorso accidentato su cui si affaccia una varia umanità: un questore morente, un assessore disinvolto, un ex senatore corrotto, un reduce della guerra cecena, un PM affetto da narcolessia. Difficile per Caserta fare chiarezza nelle indagini mentre si allunga l'ombra di un tempo antico che non lascia scampo. È un passato da cui neppure gli uomini eccellenti possono affrancarsi. E intanto lunghe file di camion attraversano una Brianza notturna e spettrale col loro carico di veleni: tutto può essere sepolto, tutto può essere bruciato.

2016br. James e Steve, i due operativi dei servizi segreti, questa volta ci condurranno a Ottawa, dove dei terroristi di Al Qaeda sono penetrati nell'Ambasciata americana e tengono in ostaggio l'Ambasciatore, la moglie e otto impiegati; minacciano di ucciderli uno dopo l'altro, se il Governo americano non scarcererà un gruppo di prigionieri talebani entro la mezzanotte. Toccherà ai nostri "eroi", giunti appositamente da Washington, liberare gli ostaggi, eliminare i terroristi e trovarne i complici, prima che scada l'ultimatum. Ci faranno partecipare da vicino anche al loro lavoro, alle esercitazioni durissime delle reclute e, James in particolare, ci trasmetterà le sue emozioni per l'attesa del primo figlio. Conosceremo quindi i due aspetti di James: uno, quello che abbiamo visto fino a ora di rude e talvolta spietato soldato, e l'altro di tenero marito e padre. Insomma, ci immergeremo nella storia e ci faremo coinvolgere, quasi coprotagonisti, nelle loro missioni e nella loro vita privata.
