A clone plays a dangerous game of life, death, memory, and murder
in a twisting thriller by Wall Street Journal bestselling author
Matthew FitzSimmons. Cloning is a luxury for the wealthy. For
Chance Harker, it's a way of getting on with his lives. Five years
ago, when he was sixteen, he and his brother, Marley, were murdered
in a kidnapping gone wrong. Chance was revived-and his grieving
parents met his existence with anger, neglect, and aversion. The
public, though? They can't get enough of the death-defying stunts
he has parlayed into a social media spectacle. But after Chance's
latest "refresh," he awakens to accusations that he's killed Lee
Conway, a stranger Chance has never met. Has one of his clones?
With no memory of his previous selves, and working fast before he's
arrested, Chance digs into Conway's background, the mysteries of
his own life-and death-and the tragic abduction that tore his
family apart. All Chance has to do is stay ahead of the LAPD; his
kidnappers, who are back on the hunt; and a growing mob of incensed
protesters outraged that a rich clone appears to be getting away
with murder.

A breakthrough in human cloning becomes one woman's waking
nightmare in a mind-bending thriller by the Wall Street Journal
bestselling author of the Gibson Vaughn series. In the near future,
advances in medicine and quantum computing make human cloning a
reality. For the wealthy, cheating death is the ultimate luxury. To
anticloning militants, it's an abomination against nature. For
young Constance "Con" D'Arcy, who was gifted her own clone by her
late aunt, it's terrifying. After a routine monthly upload of her
consciousness-stored for that inevitable transition-something goes
wrong. When Con wakes up in the clinic, it's eighteen months later.
Her recent memories are missing. Her original, she's told, is dead.
If that's true, what does that make her? The secrets of Con's
disorienting new life are buried deep. So are those of how and why
she died. To uncover the truth, Con is retracing the last days she
can recall, crossing paths with a detective who's just as curious.
On the run, she needs someone she can trust. Because only one thing
has become clear: Con is being marked for murder-all over again.
A Wall Street Journal bestseller. Gibson Vaughn, hero of the
bestselling novel The Short Drop, returns in a smoldering thriller.
When jailed billionaire Charles Merrick hints publicly that he has
stashed a fortune in an offshore cache, a school of sharks
converges upon his release from federal prison. Among his swindled
victims is Judge Hammond Birk, the man who saved Gibson Vaughn's
life when he was a troubled teenager. Now Gibson intends to repay
that debt by recovering Merrick's victims' money. But Gibson isn't
the only one on the trail of the hidden fortune. The promise of
billions has drawn a horde of ruthless treasure hunters, including
an edgy ex-con, a female bartender with a mysterious history, a
Chinese spy with a passion for fly-fishing, and a veritable army of
hardened mercenaries. To stay ahead of the sharks and win justice
for his mentor, Gibson will need all his formidable skills. But at
the end of the road, he'll still have to face "Poisonfeather"-a
geopolitical secret that just might get Gibson killed...or worse.

Dive into the bestselling Gibson Vaughn series where the past won't
rest, but neither will he. After a period of brutal isolation in a
CIA black-site prison, former Marine and gifted hacker Gibson
Vaughn is free-but with no idea where he was or how much time he's
lost. Struggling to maintain his grip on reality, he races to
return to the life he left behind. Angry and disoriented, his
thoughts turn to vengeance and the man responsible for his
rendition. But Gibson's drive for retribution and the ghosts of his
violent past plunge him back into a world he wants only to escape.
As old enemies and once-trusted allies resurface, the architects of
a murderous conspiracy will beat a sinister path to Gibson's
doorstep. In discovering the shocking truth about those he thought
he knew best, only one thing is certain: those responsible must be
made to answer...and pay.
An Amazon Charts Bestseller. A decade ago, fourteen-year-old
Suzanne Lombard, the daughter of Benjamin Lombard-then a senator,
now a powerful vice president running for the
presidency-disappeared in the most sensational missing-person case
in the nation's history. Still unsolved, the mystery remains a
national obsession. For legendary hacker and marine Gibson Vaughn,
the case is personal-Suzanne Lombard had been like a sister to him.
On the tenth anniversary of her disappearance, the former head of
Benjamin Lombard's security asks for Gibson's help in a covert
investigation of the case, with new evidence in hand. Haunted by
tragic memories, he jumps at the chance to uncover what happened
all those years ago. Using his military and technical prowess, he
soon discovers multiple conspiracies surrounding the Lombard
family-and he encounters powerful, ruthless political players who
will do anything to silence him and his team. With new information
surfacing that could threaten Lombard's bid for the presidency,
Gibson must stay one step ahead as he navigates a dangerous web to
get to the truth.
