Former special ops agent Nick Harper thought he had buried his past beneath classified files and government silence. Living a quiet life in Tulum, Mexico, Nick spends his days off the grid—surfing, fixing boats, and trying to forget the blood on his hands. That is, until the CIA drops one name into his lap: Farouk al-Damir, a tech-savvy warlord turned cyber-terrorist, who has re-emerged with a weaponized AI capable of crippling global infrastructure in seconds.
There’s just one problem: Farouk was presumed dead. And the man who allegedly killed him? Nick Harper. When a rogue black warrant—an off-the-books kill order—is issued under Harper’s name, he realizes he’s been set up. The agency wants him silenced, and Farouk wants revenge. With no one to trust and every law enforcement agency now targeting him as a traitor, Harper is forced to team up with an unlikely ally: Rina Kade, an ambitious Interpol cyber analyst who discovers a digital fingerprint in Farouk’s AI linking it to secret U.S. black-ops technology.
What follows is a high-octane chase across continents—from the neon-lit backstreets of Istanbul to an off-shore server fortress in the Arctic Circle—as Harper and Rina fight to expose a conspiracy buried deep within the intelligence community. Along the way, Harper is forced to confront his own past sins, the blurred lines of justice, and a haunting truth: the “black warrant” was never meant for Farouk—it was meant for anyone who knew too much. As Harper pieces together the puzzle, he uncovers Project Eclipse, an abandoned operation involving mind-hacking nanotech and predictive warfare. The true enemy isn’t Farouk—it’s the people who built him, used him, and then discarded him. Betrayals mount, bullets fly, and the countdown to a global digital blackout begins.
In a final showdown aboard a hijacked satellite command vessel, Harper must make an impossible choice: take down the corrupted system from within, or walk away and let the world burn. With Rina’s help, he uploads a virus that destroys the AI, but not before broadcasting the truth to the world. Black Warrant ends not with clean victory, but with revelation. Nick Harper disappears into the shadows once more—his name cleared, but his soul forever marked. Rina returns to Interpol, now a rising star known for taking down the most secret operation no one was supposed to know existed.
