Mason Briggs and his team of special agents have been contacted to apprehend an art forger. Art is being stolen and copies put out to unscrupulous buyers. They learn that head of the operation is operating out of Hong Kong, so a team is sent to bring him in, alone and without any bodyguards.The plan is progressing nicely, but a double-cross and a moment of carelessness bring an unexpected and serious threat to the mission, the team itself, and their very lives.

Mason Briggs heads a specialized group of experts. They are the group the government calls to execute missions that simply cannot be handled at the public level. If they are caught, they will be disowned completely.Always before, the group has completed the missions to which they are sent.Recently, they have been hired to cause the downfall of a dictator in a former Russian state. They are on track to be successful again, but then things begin to get complicated. The team faces struggles beyond anything they have trained for. Personal loyalties and professional obligations clash and there are choices to be made that might affect the future of the enterprise and of the the team itself.
