The US military is in a panic when drones are unexplainably seized mid-mission. Unable to get direct information the military contacts the National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC). Adam Dekker, their special operator, is sent to discover the source of this strange attack.
Dekker recognizes signs of his old enemy, Abaddon, he defeated in Germany. He finds that the spirit of Abaddon is still in the world and has found a new host in an Egyptian mystic, Kamenwati.
Dekker and his new partner, British SIS agent Hannah Ahmed, must follow slim leads to find Kamenwati, the man Dekker believes is the source of the drone seizures. Through a series of trials and escapes, Dekker and Hannah find a mutual attraction that surprises them both.
Dekker and Hannah follow a trail of clues from Egypt to Ft. Bragg in North Carolina, central command for US drone operations. Kamenwati is there as well and in an effort to protect his plan pitting West against East, he fabricates a supernatural Merlin Box to entrap Dekker.
Dekker’s friends must search for a way to penetrate the Merlin Box and free him before Kamenwati’s scheme is realized. There is only one problem: the Merlin Box and its captive are invisible.
The tension grows as Dekker becomes less likely to escape the Merlin Box, and Kamenwati’s plan to plunge the world into war approaches a frightening reality.
