James Phelan

    James Phelan zkoumá složité vztahy mezi mocí, politikou a lidskou povahou ve svých mrazivých thrillerech. Jeho mistrovství spočívá v budování napětí a vytváření propracovaných zápletek, které drží čtenáře v napětí až do samého konce. Phelanův jedinečný styl obohacuje jeho literární přístup, který vychází z hlubokého porozumění strukturám, ať už architektonickým, nebo geopolitickým. Jeho díla nutí čtenáře zamyšlet se nad temnými zákoutími mezinárodních vztahů a morálními dilematy v krizových situacích.

      'Jed Walker is right there in Reacher's rear-view mirror.' Lee Child In war-torn Syria, a massacre survivor is pulled from beneath a pile of bodies. She is given one 'Find Jed Walker.' Walker is ex-CIA - a man who thought he was long out of the game. Discovering a terror outfit is running people-smuggling from the Middle East and into the United States, he is drawn back in to fight their evil trade. At first Walker thinks these human traffickers are driven purely by profit and greed. But it is much worse than that - and it has ties to the highest levels of power. As the body count rises, and deadly enemies stalk from the shadows, Walker uncovers the shocking truth behind an operation intended to bring America to its knees.

If he lives, Jed Walker will learn the true cost of life . . . and the knowledge will change him forever.
