The future of war is here. The soldiers are children. And the game is murder.
In a forgotten Venezuelan valley, a drug cartel is erased with terrifying, surgical precision.
The assassins are not men.
They are the Tin Men-the next generation of warfare: remote-controlled, unstoppable robotic soldiers.
The problem?
The operators are a squad of elite gamers in suburban basements across America, teenagers who believe they are beta-testing the most realistic first-person shooter ever created.
They don't know the blood is real, the screams are real, and their high scores are a body count.
When the "beta test" spills onto the streets of a crowded city, causing an international incident, the US government needs to bury its catastrophic mistake.
They need a ghost.
Enter Brill Wingfield.
A deniable operative sent to clean up messes that don't officially exist, Brill is deployed to hunt the hunters.
But his mission is compromised from the start.
To the gamers, he's not a rescuer; he's the ultimate boss level, a high-value target with a million-dollar Bitcoin bounty on his head.
Hunted by the very machines he's trying to stop and the unwitting teenagers controlling them, Brill must use his analog skills to fight a digital war.
He is a ghost in a system designed by a paranoid inventor, a man willing to kill to protect his deadly creation, and manipulated by a shadowy contractor who sees the massacre as a business opportunity.
For fans of Lee Child's Jack Reacher, the high-tech combat of Mark Greaney's Gray Man, and the raw, unflinching action of Vince Flynn,
TIN MEN is a blistering, high-concept thriller that explores the terrifying consequences of dehumanized warfare.
In a war with no rules and no consequences for the killers, the only way to win is to crash the system.
But what happens when the game is real, and you're the one set to Game Over?
