Insurrection The Machine: Book Two - Hardcover

by Philip Nicholas Rogone (Author)

Michael Angelino is supposed to be dead.

But he isn't. Haunted by the loss of his wife and scarred by battles that began decades ago in Vietnam, Angelino survives in the shadows, a ghost moving through a world that believes it can negotiate with those who only understand blood. Once a covert operative, now an unacknowledged weapon known only as The Machine, he is drawn back into a war that operates beyond law, politics, or diplomacy.

When jihadist mastermind Aqeel Gabany escalates his plans, Angelino discovers the next strike will not make headlines, it will be a mass grave beneath London, with another catastrophe taking shape for America. From jungle camps to international hotels, from the streets of London to the corridors of power, Angelino moves alone, dismantling enemy networks, sending chilling messages, and confronting threats that no government can or will stop.

Meanwhile, Tess Lamia is pulled deeper into the machinery of power, chasing a killer who should not exist while protecting secrets she cannot reveal. As bodies fall and pressure mounts, Angelino realizes the danger is not just overseas: something is rotting within the system itself, and those sworn to serve may be part of the attack.

In Insurrection, the second installment of The Machine series, readers are taken on a relentless, globe-spanning thriller filled with covert operations, targeted killings, and moral ambiguity. Michael Angelino must do what governments cannot hunt the enemy without permission, without backup, and without mercy, standing between civilization and chaos in a war that can never be acknowledged but must be won.
