Description

The new action-packed thriller from Richard & Judy and Zoe Ball Book Club pick, TONY KENT.
Like Baldacci at his best. Steve Cavanagh

When traces of a radioactive material are found with a body in Key
West/Florida, multiple federal agencies suddenly descend on the scene. This is not just an isolated murder; a domestic terrorist group is ready to bring the US government to its knees.

The threat hits close to home for ISB Agent Joe Dempsey when he discovers a personal connection to the group. With his new team member, former Secret Service agent Eden Grace, Dempsey joins the race to track down the bomb before its too late. But when their mission falls apart, he is forced to turn to the most unlikely of allies: an old enemy he thought he had buried in his past.

Now, with time running out, they must find a way to work together to stop a madman from unleashing horrifying destruction on one of the pillars of American democracy.

Reviews

Praise for Power Play:

Twist after twist . . . It builds to a brilliant finale. Daily Mirror

A high-octane conspiracy yarn. The Times

An intricate, twisty minefield of geopolitics and absolute power gone rogue. Kent hasoutdone himself with this one. David Baldacci

A gripping conspiracy thriller. Ian Rankin

Reads like Baldacci at his best. Really intelligent, bang-up-to-date thriller. Steve Cavanagh, author ofThirteen

Scarily credible, and so pacy and well-written that I forgot where I was, who I was, and indeed that I was reading a book at all. Gripping, absorbing, a page-turner with characters you commit to 100%. Judith OReilly, author ofKilling State

The kind of fast-paced, action thriller that keeps you hooked until the very end. I loved it. Simon Kernick, author ofThe Bone Field series

High stakes, high-octane action with twists and turns that will make you gasp. Adam Hamdy, author ofBlack 13
