   Summary

   After losing the arms operation to Richard Roper and the city to civil war, Jonathan Pine escapes with Teddy Dos Santos and the remainder of his team. Jonathan and Teddy escape to America and slowly begin to plan their next move to take down Roper and dig deep into the entanglements of government involvement in plans that suggest something bigger than Richard Onslow Roper and his weapons deal. As the final game draws to an end, Jonathan and Teddy must come to terms with their own past trauma and find new beginnings in the aftermath and in each other.
