Independence Day
Dewey Andreas is back... and the clock is ticking!
Cloud, a high-level Russian hacker, perhaps the best in the world, has acquired a nuclear weapon. It's an older bomb from the USSR's Cold War arsenal with the power to devastate a major city. Fueled by a dark and personal vendetta, Cloud has put it onto an anonymous trawler, piloted by jihadists, headed straight to America.
Dewey Andreas, former Delta working as an agent for the C.I.A., is still drowning in grief after the tragic murder of his fiancée. Dewey has lost his focus, his edge, and the confidence of his superiors.
Learning of the missing loose nuke and picking up chatter about an impending terrorist attack on American shores, the best and most talented C.I.A. agents are now chasing both Cloud and the bomb. Acting on credible intel, two highly trained teams are sent into Russia in a two-pronged mission to grab Cloud. But it's a trap, and now America's last hope of stopping the bomb is an unofficial agent gone rogue-Dewey Andreas.
With only three days left, Dewey Andreas must find the elusive Cloud. To do so, Dewey will risk everything to find the most dangerous and skilled enemy he's yet faced. For if he fails, American will suffer its most deadly terrorist attack on the Fourth of July-Independence Day.

Ben Coes
Ben Coes grew up in West Simsbury, Connecticut, with a curiosity for both the mechanics of power and the pulse of the world beyond his hometown. That curiosity carried him to Columbia College in New York City, where he honed his storytelling, earning the Bennett Cerf Memorial Prize for Fiction. Yet Coes’ path to the page was far from linear. Early roles as a White House intern and a speechwriter for the U.S. Secretary of Energy during the Gulf War offered him an insider’s perspective on political strategy and the shadowed corners of international affairs, experiences that would later shape the tension and authenticity of his novels.
