Breaking the Net

A tightly paced, professionally grounded modern national security counter-espionage novel. Centered on Liu Zheng (codename 'Night Eagle'), it depicts a silent war unfolding simultaneously in bustling cities and hidden borderlands. From using innocent college student Zhao Liang as a 'signal probe' to subverting a senior engineer at a military enterprise; from tracking the cunning headhunters codenamed 'Soldier' and 'Castle' to identifying a network core technician disguised as a cryptography professor; from psychological battles on an urban golf course to life-and-death pursuits in the southwestern border rainforest... Liu Zheng, along with national security commander Lin Nan and technical expert Xiao Su, forms a temporary team, peeling back layers, conducting reverse infiltration, and engaging in a thrilling contest of intellect and will against a ghost network codenamed after chess pieces. It constructs a credible national security battlefield, integrating high-tech intelligence warfare, complex human struggles, and the grand theme of national security.
