The mission: to protect the country and its allies from terrorist acts by secretly enabling a hand-picked man to emerge as the most powerful leader in the Middle East. But when Tristan Nazir double-crosses Washington, and uses the program for his own violent ends to create ISIS, America finds itself facing its greatest risk yet. Elite operative Dewey Andreas is sent to Syria to retrieve details about the source of ISIS's funding--until his cover is blown and chaos erupts in the streets. He manages to send intel just in time to for the U.S. to cut off a final arms shipment before it reaches ISIS...but Nazir's plot is far from finished. Soon a terrorist cell takes over a college dorm in New York City, taking hundreds of students as hostages. Now, in a situation with a powerful traitor and few allies, there remains only one option: Dewey Andreas. If only he weren't already trapped by the enemy who's about to launch another bold strike. . . <p/><b>This edition of the book is the deluxe, tall rack mass market paperback.</b></p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p><b>Praise for the thrilling novels by Ben Coes: </b> <p/>"Ben Coes has created a hero who ranks with the protagonists in a Vince Flynn or Brad Thor thriller... <i>The Last Refuge</i> is a winner and will keep readers turning the pages." --Associated Press <p/>"Terrific!
