==Synopsis==
On The opening day of the new baseball season, a small model-kit airplane flies down from the stands and buzzes the mound, where a decorated vet pilot is about to throw out the first ball. The toy plane is a replica of the one flown by the war hero. Everyone laughs, thinking it's a prank or a stunt. Until it explodes, injuring dozens.
Seconds later, a swarm of drones descends upon the panicked crowd, each one carrying a powerful device. All across the country, artificial intelligence drive systems in cars, commuter trains, and even fighter planes go out of control. The death toll soars as the machines we depend upon every day are turned into engines of destruction.
Joe Ledger and the Department of Military Sciences go hunt for whoever is controlling these machines, but every step of the way they are met with traps and shocks that strike the very heart of the DMS. No one is safe. Nowhere is safe. Enemies old and new arise as America burns.
Joe Ledger and his team begin a desperate search for the secret to this new technology and the madmen behind it. But before they can close in, an enemy virus infects Air Force One. The President is trapped aboard as the jet heads toward the heart of New York City. It has become Predator One.
