Code of Conduct, published in 2015, is the 14th novel in Brad Thor's Scot Harvath series of thrillers. It is Thor's 15th overall novel, including The Athena Project, which was spun off from the Harvath series. The storyline involves a terrorist plot that starts out in Africa and is uncovered when a video clip showing the effects of a mysterious illness appears. The plot involves releasing a new virus worldwide to start a global pandemic and kill off a vast chunk of the world's population, and of course, Harvath has to try to stop it.
The hardcover version of the book is about 360 pages long. The storyline starts out a bit slowly but picks up as the book goes along. The last third of the book is very suspenseful and action-packed and has a bit more political intrigue than most of Thor's other books. Most of the characters in the book are already established. There are a handful of new characters in the book, some of whom could appear in subsequent novels. The storyline is fairly self-contained so you do not need to have read the prior books in the series to follow what is going on, but it does help a bit to know the background of the main characters. It is worth reading for fans of the series or just fans of the action/thriller or spy novel genres.
