When the Hammer Falls

A new super weapon, called a Direct Energy Weapon (DEW), is stolen. This weapon can fire a beam that can not only go through any armor known but can also shut down electrical and mechanical objects (Cars, planes and even watches). Shepherd has to go undercover, in Germany, as a buyer for the weapon to get it back. To make things worse he has to do so using the alias of a CIA agent (who was also undercover), who has gone missing and was supposed to be the original buyer.
