Fault Line

They took the wrong man hostage.
When former black-ops operative Luke Ryder stops to help a stranded woman on a rural road, he expects nothing more than a tyre change. He’s wrong.

The woman, Dara, is a legal adviser working on dismantling the last remnants of an old separatist movement. Minutes later a white van blocks their path, and masked men drag them into the mountains.

Taken to a remote farm in the Pyrenees, Ryder soon learns the dangerous truth.

Inside the camp, militants and young recruits are already at war with one another. Ryder sees the fractures—and knows how to use them.

As the extremists turn on each other, Ryder and Dara make a desperate run for survival, hunted by the group’s ruthless leader and his remaining loyalists…

Some fights find you and won’t let you walk away.

Explosive, atmospheric, and impossible to put down, Fault Line is perfect for fans of Lee Child, David Baldacci, Gregg Hurwitz, and Jack Carr.

Review of advance copy

Luke Ryder is heroic and relentlessly smart. The story is a hostage situation which progresses fast. I was thrilled and excited by the danger but had faith that Luke would save the day.
