Conspiracy Game is the fourth title in the Ghostwalker Series of paranormal romance by Christine Feehan, published in 2006 by Penguin Group.
Jack Norton, one of a group of Navy SEALs that were psychically and physically enhanced by Dr. Peter Whitney, called Ghostwalkers, is on a mission to the Democratic Republic of the Congo to rescue his twin brother, Ken from rebel forces.
Briony Jenkins takes a walk in the jungle, despite the danger of encountering rebel forces.
Briony in turn is amazed that even with his numerous injuries, she cannot feel his pain nor hear his thoughts; it's the first time that has ever happened.
She is also surprised to learn that Jack knows her older brother Jebediah, having served with him when Jeb was a SEAL.
When it is time to leave, Jack coolly informs her that he doesn't want to continue their relationship.
The story told to her adoptive family is a lie; she is not the daughter of a man whose wife died in childbirth.
She is one of several orphaned girls who have been psychically and physically enhanced by a man named Peter Whitney.
When Briony and Jeb appear on the doorstep of Jack and his twin brother's remote cabin, he is stunned by her revelation that she's pregnant.
As they spend time together, Briony realizes that Jack is not the “badass” he purports to be, but a man shattered by an abusive and painful childhood.
