A tale from Jason King’s brutal past, told at breakneck speed in this page-turning novella from Matt Rogers, million copy bestseller and ‘the most successful writer you’ve never heard of’ (The Story).

Florida, 2010.

Three years into his tumultuous career as a black-ops wrecking ball, a young Jason King’s superiors mandate a week’s rest between assignments. But three days in, his vacation is nixed, and a mysterious CIA spook puts him on a plane to Chile for a training camp atop the highest volcano on earth.

Ojos del Salado sits twenty thousand feet above sea level – within hours of arrival, the workload threatens to destroy him: physically, emotionally, spiritually.

But there’s a reason they want him crippled by altitude sickness.

Christian West, ‘The Golden One’ and shaper of nations, has reached the limits of his patience with King’s secretive division. West orders its dissolution, and King is the first in his crosshairs.

With frighteningly little oxygen, at the very edge of his limits, King must mow through enemy after enemy as he tries to guess who, if anyone, to trust.
