The assassination of a Treadstone agent leads two Blackbriar
operatives down a rabbit hole of deceit and betrayal in this
explosive new series from the world of Robert Ludlum's Jason
Bourne. A car explodes on a quiet Prague side street - and among
the dead is an undercover Treadstone agent. It's not unusual for
such men to meet their fates on an operation, but in this case
there's one catch: none of the agent's superiors knows why he was
there. Two Blackbriar operatives, Helen Jouvert and Donovan Wade,
are sent to investigate. Their search for answers will take them
deeper into the world of conspiracy and fake news than they ever
expected. Treadstone and Blackbriar, intelligence and
counter-intelligence, may be two sides of the same coin, but they
have one thing in common: answers can be the deadliest commodity of
all. Reviewers on Simon Gervais: 'Thriller writing at its level
best' Providence Journal 'Non-stop action meets relentless
suspense' The Real Book Spy
In this thrilling installment of the Clayton White series, the
former Secret Service agent must sift through layers of deception
to uncover the truth behind the FBI director’s assassination and
avert a global catastrophe. Fighting the fentanyl epidemic in the
United States is a top priority for President Alexander Hammond,
and there’s only one man he trusts—however begrudgingly—to
lead the task force: former Secret Service agent and soon-to-be
son-in-law Clayton White. Once reckless in his line of work, White
is now determined to keep his future in mind. He and his fiancée,
Veronica, are expecting their first child, and there are some risks
White is no longer willing to take. But when his investigation into
the Red Dragon Triad drug cartel appears to lead to the
assassination of the FBI director, White is forced to put his life
on the line to find out who is behind the attack and what they’re
planning next. Amid a series of secret identities, betrayals, and
terrorist plots, Clayton White must join forces with allies he’s
not sure he can trust to save the country he’s sworn to protect
and the family he’s vowed to love.
From the celebrated author of The Last Protector comes an
action-packed sequel about a man whose duty to his country
threatens the life of the woman he has vowed to protect. Ex-Secret
Service agent Clayton White doesn't miss the relentless danger that
defined his career. These days, he's enjoying life at sea with his
fiancee-who also happens to be the daughter of the double-dealing
vice president, Alexander Hammond. But for the most part, Clayton
has made peace with his old nemesis. Then their ship, the NOAAS
Surveyor, comes under attack. That same day in Miami, the Second
Lady of the United States is assassinated. Hammond, who dodged the
bullet meant for him, calls upon Clayton to help him hunt down the
responsible party. Clayton wants nothing to do with the notorious
vice president, who boasts a violent and capricious history. But
with his fiancee's life in the balance, Clayton has no choice. He
jumps back into the fray, where he'll face off with enemies new and
old. And unbeknownst to Clayton, a deep-rooted enemy has been
waiting in the shadows and has now set his sights on him. This
time, it's not just the world Clayton's trying to save-but the
woman he loves.
From the acclaimed author of the Pierce Hunt series comes a
thrilling novel featuring a Secret Service agent who takes on a
ruthless foe to protect the country he serves and the woman he
loves. Former air force combat rescue officer Special Agent Clayton
White now works for the Secret Service performing routine escort
missions for politicians. These missions may not be quite as
exciting as his time in the military, but Clayton's okay with that.
It gives him more time to see his girlfriend, Veronica Hammond-an
archaeologist who also happens to be the vice president elect's
daughter. But Clayton's seemingly manageable new routine takes a
startling turn when South African mercenaries target Veronica at an
awards gala celebrating her work. After this attempt on Veronica's
life, Clayton enters a complicated web of lies, betrayal, and
dangerous government secrets. As Clayton gets closer to the truth,
he encounters unexpected foes pitted against questionable allies.
With enemies at every turn, the only constant Clayton can rely on
is Veronica. But when the threat against her turns on him, too, he
faces an impossible choice: love or country.
