Man of Honor
by Chris
Malburg
GENRE: Cyber Thriller
BLURB:
There is a unit buried within the Chinese People’s Liberation
Army. Unit 61398—the cyber warfare unit. Li Yong prepared his entire life for
command of Unit 61398. Li Yong believed this was the ultimate honor and service
to the State
Then America’s airliners started plunging from the sky. There is
no honor in being the world’s worst mass murderer. How do you right the most
terrible wrong? How do you prevent the State from slaughtering your entire
family if you fail? How do you balance a moral imperative against a lifetime of
homeland allegiance? How does Li Yong stop the unstoppable?
From Chris Malburg, author of God’s Banker, comes the
Enforcement Division Series’
next riveting installment--Man of Honor.
Excerpt:
“You,”
Jack said pointing to Li Yong, “get to work. You now have less than two hours
to insert your disarming instructions before the next attacks launch.”
Li
Yong did not move. “Where is my family?”
Helen
stepped into the confrontation. “In The FBI’S custody. I’m establishing a com
link with them right now.”
Crypto
jumped in, “If the attacks launch, the Department of Justice will put your
parents on trial for terrorism.”
“They’ll
never see the light of day again,” Jack said. “But that’s just our criminal
justice system. I don’t have the restriction of law. So let me be clear. If you
don’t stop these attacks that you created I will put a bullet in your brain.
Understood?”
Li
Yong dropped his head. “You are no better than the Chairman. He also took my
parents. He threatened to kill them if I do not engineer these attacks. We all
are just hostages to you—”
“Okay,
look,” Helen said and held a hand over the telephone handset she was talking
into, “too much testosterone here. Both of you just stand down for a minute. Li
Yong no one is going to shoot anyone. I have the FBI on the line. They’re
patching in a video feed for you to see.” She pointed.
On
the wall, one of the video screens went blank for a second, then reappeared.
This time it showed the image of the General and Mother sitting at a table in a
stark, windowless interview room. Across from them were two agents in dark
slacks, white shirts, blue ties, their suit jackets were carefully draped over
the backs of their chairs.
