See all titles by Ben Coes.
The wait is over—Ben Coes, whose debut Power Down was called “the must read thriller of the year” (Vince Flynn) is back and at the top of his game with a mesmerizing new novel
Wanting
only a peaceful, obscure life, Dewey Andreas has gone
to rural Australia, far from turbulent forces that he once fought
against. But powerful men, seeking revenge, have been scouring the earth
looking for Dewey. And now, they've finally found him - forcing Dewey
to abandon his home and to fight for his life against a very well armed,
well trained group of assassins.
Meanwhile, a radical cleric has
been elected president of Pakistan and, upon taking power, sets off a
rapidly escalating conflict with India. As the situation spins quickly
out of control, it becomes clear that India is only days from resorting
to a nuclear response, one that will have unimaginably disastrous
results for the world at large. With only days to head this off, the
President sends in his best people, including Jessica Tanzer, to do
whatever it takes to restore the fragile peace to the region. Tanzer
has only one viable option - to set up and execute a coup d'etat in
Pakistan - and only one man in mind to lead the team that will try to
pull off this almost unimaginable task in the nerve-wrackingly short
time frame, Dewey Andreas. If, that is, Jessica can even get to Dewey
and if Dewey can get out of Australia alive...
