"An action-packed thriller that barrels along at an astonishing
pace, and one that will keep you guessing until the very end!"
Goodreads If they move you, they will kill you. When Kate Foster
secures a lucrative new job, her boss insists that she undertake a
pre-deployment security and hostage survival course - a course
that's not meant to be easy, and one that Kate almost fails, to the
consternation of her instructor. Six months later, Kate is working
in Istanbul when a simple day's task goes horribly wrong. Kidnapped
and held hostage by a group of violent criminals, Kate must recall
the lessons she learned during her security training in order to
stay alive while she hopes for rescue. For Finn Scott, the man who
trained her, it's his worst nightmare. Haunted by memories of a
failed hostage rescue, he is thrust into a situation beyond his
control. Now, against a sinister adversary whose ambitions will
tear apart Eastern Europe, Finn must face the demons from his past
to secure Kate's future before the kidnappers' deadline expires...

Sum of Life - The Worst Kind of Lies is a riveting mystery of
corporate deceit, betrayal and murder. Here, where greed of the few
outweighs the needs of the many, champions arise to fight for their
liberty, justice and livelihood.
Wickedly funny. Wildly twisty. The new book from the master of the
heist novel. "A super-thief who leaves no trace."-Andy Garcia "An
anti-hero for our times."-Sarah Dunn "A can't-miss master."-David
Baldacci Super thief Riley Wolfe can do it all. He is a master of
disguise, can scale a wall, and can vanish into thin air (thick
air, too). He uses these unique talents to rob the richest. But
this time, it's the most powerful who have him in their grips. ONE
MADMAN. TWO HOSTAGES. It's not just that the high-up, rogue
government agent has abducted the only two people Riley loves: it's
the fact that Riley has to do the man's dirty work to set them
free. It's something Riley ordinarily would find a modest day's
work, infiltrating a madman's Soviet missile silo in one of the
world's most remote places, all to find a secret on a tiny flash
drive-but he's never had to race the clock like this. SOMETIMES
TRUTH CAN BE A THREE-EDGED SWORD. From its vivid, remote locales to
its John Wick-meets-Deadpool dialogue, this gripping heist novel
from Jeff Lindsay, author of the Dexter series, is everything: an
utterly escapist, must-read novel of espionage, thievery, love and
betrayal. It twists, it turns, and keeps everything on the line
until the very end. Even for Riley, it looks like this time, the
only way out is through.
America's worst nightmare has just become a terrifying reality-an
unlikely terrorist enemy now holds a knife against the country's
throat. With both diplomatic and conventional military options off
the table, the president calls upon Scot Harvath to disable a
brilliantly orchestrated conspiracy intended to bring the world's
greatest superpower to its knees. Teamed with beautiful Russian
Intelligence agent Alexandra Ivanova and a highly trained CIA
paramilitary detachment, Harvath embarks on an adrenaline-fueled
search that spans the world, which leads to a final, deadly
showdown on American soil. With unforgettable twists and turns and
plenty of suspense, State of the Union is a "blistering,
testosterone-fueled espionage thriller" (Publishers Weekly) that
you won't be able to put down.

The eleventh classic Dirk Pitt novel, where the adventurer is drawn to
a secret in the burning African desert, which could destroy all life in
the world's seas.
Deep in the African desert, Dirk Pitt discovers that a top secret
scientific installation is leaking a lethal chemical into the rivers,
threatening to kill thousands of people - and to destroy all life in
the world's seas.
To warn the world of the catastrophe, Pitt must escape capture and
death at the hands of a ruthless West African dictator and French
industrialist, and undertake a long, perilous journey across the
merciless Sahara...
Europe, 1948. The continent is once again divided: into the
Communist Soviet-controlled states to the east, and the
US-dominated democracies in the west. John Russell and his old
comrade-in-espionage Shchepkin need to find a way out of the
dangerous, morally murky world they have both inhabited for far too
long. But they can't just walk away.
DIRK PITT IS BACK. AND ON HIS SHOULDERS RESTS THE FATE OF THE
ENTIRE PLANET. JOIN THE LATEST THRILL RIDE FROM THE GRAND MASTER OF
ADVENTURE, CLIVE CUSSLER _________ In 1959 a Skytrain plane flees
Tibet - carrying a precious artefact - but after crossing the
Himalayas it is never seen again . . . Sixty years later Dirk Pitt
and NUMA are surveying near the Philippines when a rogue wave
nearly sinks their ship. Diverting to rescue washed-away islanders,
Pitt discovers the wave has raised a sunken relic - an ancient
cargo plane. But before he can get to the bottom of one mystery,
Pitt is hit with another: beat the Chinese military to find a lost
hypersonic missile. Yet what should be a simple search and retrieve
reveals evidence of a far more dangerous weapon. Because the rogue
wave that almost sank Pitt and devastated the islands was no
natural phenomenon. And the weapon that caused it is to be turned
on a much bigger target . . . In his twenty-sixth adventure, Dirk
Pitt is once again plunged into dangerous waters in a desperate
race against time. Praise for Clive Cussler: 'The Adventure King'
