关于此电子书
In this pulse-pounding action thriller perfect for fans of Brad Thor and David Baldacci, Tom Locke must stop dark forces working to overthrow the president
“McFate just might be the next Tom Clancy, only I think he’s even better . . . The action is non-stop and shuttles back and forth between scary-believable and rollicking good fun. I read High Treason during a six-hour plane ride and the trip went by like the snap of my fingers.” —James Patterson
When the US vice president’s motorcade is hit in a vicious, expertly planned attack, everyone assumes it’s terrorists—everyone except young FBI agent Jennifer Lin. Half a world away, Tom Locke has his own doubts about what happened—and who did it. He suspects his former employer, Apollo Outcomes. But why would the global private military corporation orchestrate such a brutal strike on US soil?
Returning to DC, Locke teams with Lin and discovers that a civil war is secretly brewing in the military-contracting world. A division of one company has gone rogue, led by a power-hungry former colleague of Locke’s. But this man couldn’t have pulled it off without help from inside the government.
Who could be pulling the strings? Only Locke can get to the bottom of the conspiracy—and blow it apart with one bold strike before it’s too late.
“High Treason has brutal assassinations, shocking betrayals, even heated gun battles in the shadow of the White House. It had me breathless—from the sheer audacity of its storytelling to its breakneck pacing. It’s not to be missed!”—James Rollins, #1 New York Times–bestselling author of The Last Odyssey
