Ex-Navy SEAL Adam Weldon tracks down kidnappers who have the San Francisco Bay Area teetering on the brink of societal collapse. In this wild, white-knuckled ride—much of it via sailboat—Adam teams with an Oakland cop, child hitmen and FBI agent Tripnee to battle a tech billionaire, a faux-spiritual cult, Bay pirates, a brutal cartel—and moral rot extending into the highest reaches of the US government. As this gripping drama unfolds, Adam comes to understand his extraordinary uncle—and himself—as never before. Could his kidnapped Uncle Peace, a cantankerous ex-Zen monk, be a key not only to saving the Bay Area—and America—but also to sparking a civilizing cultural and spiritual renaissance?
