A shattering debut thriller in which an unstoppable force of destruction is about to strike at the heart of America . . .
The remote and impenetrable Pakistani mountains have offered refuge to the worst enemies of civilization since the time of Alexander. Now, the world faces a new challenge. Reared from birth to harbor a seething hatred, a lone man is about to unleash a firestorm that will rage for centuries. And the window of opportunity to stop him is shutting much faster than Washington D.C. can hope to deal with.
A top lethal operative, Will Parker is embedded within the terrorists' ranks to stop this catastrophic disaster. But with a nuclear core on its way to America, Parker will go to any lengths to stop a biological terror more lethal than anything the USA—and the world—has ever faced.
Retribution—a dire warning of what our future may hold . . . and our end.

A police officer haunted by failure gets a chance at redemption with a new case in this uninspired novelization of the hit British TV drama’s first season from Kelly (The Burning Air). Det. Insp. Alec Hardy, a newcomer to the close-knit Wessex community of Broadchurch, looks into the strangulation of 11-year-old Danny Latimer. As the position he takes over had been promised to Det. Sgt. Ellie Miller, fresh off maternity leave, there’s tension from the start, exacerbated by Hardy’s brusque personal style. Broadchurch is well off the beaten path, and Ellie, a long-time local, must confront the disturbing possibility than the killer is someone everyone in town knows well. Predictable red herrings abound, even if the solution will surprise many. In the fall, the series will be rebooted as Gracepoint in the U.S., with David Tennant reprising his lead role.
