FROM AWARD WINNING FILMMAKER OF \"FALLING OUT\"

& THE AUTHOR OF \"IMPLODING TOGETHER\"

In 2014, a terrorist group known as the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria—ISIS—emerged from the remnants of Al Qaeda. Rapidly gaining influence beyond Syria, ISIS now commands global followers, dividing into sects that even welcome non-Muslims, so long as they share one belief: that the United States must be destroyed.

Operating in secret across nearly every country, these factions set aside their differences to pursue one goal—dismantling America and replacing it with a new world order.

In response, President Brodrick O'Connor authorized a covert black ops initiative known as The Mercenary Project. Its purpose: to infiltrate ISIS from the inside. Seven unknown recruits were chosen and subjected to the most brutal mental, physical, and spiritual training imaginable. They were prepared for anything—whether it be the torture of discovery or the hellish trials of ISIS initiation. The project was considered highly classified.
