“...heart-stopping scenes of intrigue and action…” —Indie Reader
Mathieu James, a respected journalist with a secret life as a CIA operative, carries the weight of tragedy. Orphaned by the 2005 London bombings, he's haunted by whispers of an elusive fifth bomber the world has forgotten.
A decade later, a chilling clue surfaces, linking this hidden mastermind to the devastating 2015 Paris attacks. Driven by an unquenchable thirst for justice, James plunges into a high-stakes, covert investigation that spans continents. Joined by fearless colleague Ana-Marie Poulin and seasoned MI5 veteran Conan MacGregor, he races against time to unravel a conspiracy determined to strike again.
From the sun-drenched streets of Los Angeles to the corridors of Amsterdam's airport, the shadowy alleys of Paris to the cobblestone streets under Edinburgh’s imposing castle, James navigates an unraveling mystery destined for mass destruction. With each heart-pounding step, the line between his dual identities blurs, and the stakes skyrocket. A ruthless terror mastermind with seemingly unlimited resources closes in, forcing James to confront not only external threats but his own deep-seated demons.
As Scotland teeters on the brink of chaos and the body count rises, James faces an impossible choice: Will he finally unmask the evil that shattered his world, or will his relentless pursuit lead him into a trap from which there's no escape?
In this pulse-pounding international thriller, time is running out, trust is a luxury, and the truth might be the deadliest weapon of all. Perfect for fans of Vince Flynn and Jack Carr.
