'Craven has unleashed Ben Koenig into the thriller world. Long may he raise hell in the pages.' David Baldacci, #1 New York Times bestselling author
'Perhaps for the first time, Jack Reacher has a convincing rival in the form of MW Craven's Ben Koenig' The Times
-----
The man who can't feel fear is back, in a race against time to find the woman who knows a secret that could take down the world as we know it.
When a shocking murder and abduction on the streets of London leads investigators to him, Ben Koenig has no idea at first why the highest echelons of the CIA would need his help. But then he realises he knows the woman who carried out the killings. Ten years earlier, without being told why, he was tasked with helping her disappear.
Far from being a deranged killer, she is the gatekeeper of a secret that could take down the West, so for years she has been in hiding. Until now.
And if she has resurfaced, the danger may be closer and more terrifying than anyone can imagine.
So Ben Koenig has to find her before it's too late. But Ben suffers from a syndrome which means he can't feel fear. He doesn't always know when he should walk away, or when he's leading others into danger . . .
Fast, brutal and smart, the second book in the Sunday Times bestselling Ben Koenig series is a pulse-raising, adrenaline-filled rollercoaster featuring ruthless killers, hard choices - and one fearless man . . .
'An absolute white-knuckle ride of a book. Fingernail-chewingly tense, lightning paced and as hard-edged as Koenig's Fairburn-Sykes dagger. Just brilliant.' Neil Lancaster, bestselling author of the Tom Novak and Max Craigie series
Praise for Fearless and the Ben Koenig series:
'Tough, explosive, badass and brilliant, Fearless is everything you could want in a thriller. Blistering pace and all-out action, impossible to put down, impossible to forget. If you like Reacher, you'll LOVE this.' Chris Whitaker, New York Times bestselling author of We Begin at the End
'A knockout thriller!' Steve Cavanagh, bestselling author of Thirteen
'Adrenaline-fuelled plotting, hard-charging characters, and small town evil...this is a thriller with all the right ingredients. And yeah, Reacher fans, you're gonna love this too.' Vaseem Khan, award-winning author of the Malabar House series
'A superb thriller that will have everyone talking, and gasping.' David Baldacci, #1 New York Times bestselling author
'Fans of Jack Reacher, get excited. . . Imagine if Reacher and John Wick had brought up a child together, and you'd get Ben Koenig. . . A blistering barnstormer of an action thriller, this demands to be read.' Heat Magazine, Heat's Book of the Week (UK)
'If you haven't read any M. W. Craven yet, fix that immediately.' S. A. Cosby, New York Times bestselling author of Razorblade Tears
'Koenig's insouciant style and sharp thinking pack a very hefty punch. Paging Lee and Andrew Child: you've got company.' Daily Express (UK)
'Effortless. Thrilling. Explosive...this series looks to take the world by storm.' Imran Mahmood, author of You Don't Know Me and All I Said Was True
'Comparisons to Lee Child's Jack Reacher character will be inevitable, but MW Craven comfortably manages to outreach Reacher in this viscerally exciting and extremely violent thriller.' Sunday Independent (Ireland)
'Perhaps for the first time, Jack Reacher has a convincing rival in the form of MW Craven's Ben Koenig' The Times
