Political Thriller Audiobooks | Mystery, Thriller & Horror

The Central Intelligence Agency is under attack, and so is its top field operative, Kyle Swanson. The highly decorated former Marine Corps gunnery sergeant is attending the funeral of a friend when a terrorist blows up the grave. A week later, he narrowly survives a grenade attack in Berlin. In Washington, Congress is being told that Swanson has been turned, his private employer is corrupt, and the Agency itself cannot be trusted. Swanson is assigned to find the root of the problem and is partnered up with Luke Gibson, a skilled operative rated as being almost as good as Swanson. They are looking for assassin Nicky Marks, who also was a CIA shooter but now works for a shadowy power broker known as The Prince. But before Kyle and Luke can eliminate the threat, they must identify and find the man who wants them dead. That takes them from the pink poppy fields of Afghanistan to the jungles of Southeast Asia and the streets of America as they learn that the Prince is the ruthless kingpin of a global drug empire that uses CIA planes to transport opium and heroin. Swanson also lines up a secret partner, the beautiful widow of his friend whose grave was desecrated in Mexico, the sharpshooting former commando Beth Ledford, who has her own agenda of pure retribution. Kyle Swanson, at the worst possible moment in a combat showdown, must decide: Do you trust your partner, and if so, which one?

Dewey Andreas, former Delta and current intelligence agent, is sidelined. Still drowning in grief after the tragic murder of his fiance, Dewey has seemingly lost his focus, his edge, and the confidence of his superiors. A high-level Russian hacker, known only as Cloud, is believed to be behind a series of major terror operations, and the mission is to capture and render Cloud harmless. At the same time, a back-up team is sent after the only known associate of Cloud, a ballerina believed to be his girlfriend. Unwilling to sit out the mission as ordered, Dewey defies his superiors, and goes rogue, surreptitiously following and tracking the two teams. What should be a pair of simple snatch and grab operations, goes horribly wrong-both teams are ambushed and wiped out. Only through the unexpected intervention of Dewey is the back-up operation salvaged. Cloud's girlfriend reveals a shocking secret-a plot so audacious and deadly that the masterminds behind it would risk anything and kill anybody to prevent its exposure. It's a plot that, in less than three days, will completely remake the world's political landscape and put at risk every single person in the Western world. On the run, with no back up, and with only three days left, Dewey Andreas must unravel and stop this plot or see everything destroyed. A plot that goes live on July 4th-Independence Day.

Invasive: A Novel

"Think Thomas Harris' Will Graham and Clarice Starling rolled into one and pitched on the knife's edge of a scenario that makes Jurassic Park look like a carnival ride. Another rip-roaring, deeply paranoid thriller about the reasons to fear the future." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) Hannah Stander is a consultant for the FBI-a futurist who helps the Agency with cases that feature demonstrations of bleeding-edge technology. It's her job to help them identify unforeseen threats: hackers, AIs, genetic modification, anything that in the wrong hands could harm the homeland. Hannah is in an airport, waiting to board a flight home to see her family, when she receives a call from Agent Hollis Copper. "I've got a cabin full of over a thousand dead bodies," he tells her. Whether those bodies are all human, he doesn't say. What Hannah finds is a horrifying murder that points to the impossible-someone weaponizing the natural world in a most unnatural way. Discovering who-and why-will take her on a terrifying chase from the Arizona deserts to the secret island laboratory of a billionaire inventor/philanthropist. Hannah knows there are a million ways the world can end, but she just might be facing one she could never have predicted-a new threat both ancient and cutting-edge that could wipe humanity off the earth.

Islands in the Net

In a near-future new age of corporate control, hacker mercenaries, and electronic terrorism, a public relations executive on the rise finds herself caught in the violent epicenter of a data war. Two decades into the twenty-first century, the world’s nations are becoming irrelevant. Corporations are the true global powers, with information the most valuable currency, while the smaller island nations have become sanctuaries for data pirates and terrorists. A globe-trotting PR executive for the large corporate economic democracy Rizome Industries Group, Laura Webster is present when a foreign representative is assassinated on Rizome soil during a conference for offshore data havens. Dispatched immediately on an international mission of diplomacy, Laura hopes she can make a difference in a volatile, unsteady world, but instead finds herself trapped on the front lines of rapidly escalating third-world hostilities and caught up in an inescapable net of conspiracy, terrorism, post-millennial voodoo, and electronic warfare. During the 1980s, science fiction luminary Bruce Sterling envisioned the future . . . and hit it almost dead-on. The author who, along with William Gibson, Neal Stephenson, and Rudy Rucker, helped create and define the cyberpunk subgenre imagines a world of tomorrow in Islands in the Net that bears a striking—and disturbing—resemblance to our present-day information-age reality. Nominated for the Hugo and Locus Awards and winner of the John W. Campbell Memorial Award, Sterling’s extraordinary novel is a gripping, eye-opening, and remarkably prescient science fiction classic.

Jagd Auf Null (Ein Agent Null Spionage-Thriller – Buch #3)

„Sie werden nicht schlafen können, bis sie AGENT NULL ausgelesen haben. Ein großartiges Werk mit einer Reihe von Charakteren, die ausgereift und unterhaltsam sind. Die Beschreibung der Actionszenen entführt uns in eine Realität, die sich fast wie im Kino mit Surround-Sound und 3D-Effekt anfühlt (es würde sich großartig als Hollywood-Film machen). Ich kann die Fortsetzung kaum erwarten.“ --Roberto Mattos, Books and Movie Reviews Als CIA-Agent Null in JAGD AUF NULL (Buch #3) erfährt, dass seine beiden Teenager-Mädchen entführt wurden und sich auf dem Weg zu einem Menschenhandelsring nach Osteuropa befinden, beginnt er eine rasante Verfolgungsjagd quer durch ganz Europa und hinterlässt dabei eine Spur der Verwüstung, während er alle Regeln bricht, sein eigenes Leben riskiert und alles tut, um seine Töchter zurückzubekommen. Kent, der von der CIA zum Rückzug aufgefordert wird, weigert sich. Ohne die Unterstützung der Agentur, mit Maulwürfen und Auftragskillern zu allen Seiten, mit einer Geliebten, der er kaum vertrauen kann und während er selbst ins Visier genommen wird, muss sich Agent Null zahlreichen Gegnern stellen, um seine Mädchen zurückzubekommen. Gegen den tödlichsten Menschenhandelsring Europas, dessen politische Verbindungen bis an die Spitze reichen, ist dies ein unmöglicher Kampf – ein Mann gegen eine Armee – ein Gefecht, das nur Agent Null führen kann. Ihm wird bewusst, dass seine eigene Identität jedoch das möglicherweise verhängnisvollste Geheimnis von allen ist. JAGD AUF NULL (Buch #3) ist ein Spionage-Thriller, den Sie nicht wieder aus den Händen legen werden können und der Sie bis tief in die Nacht hinein an sich fesseln wird. „Thriller-Schreiben vom Feinsten.“ --Midwest Book Review (über Koste es, was es wolle) „Einer der besten Thriller, die ich dieses Jahr gelesen habe.“ --Books and Movie Reviews (über Koste es, was es wolle) Ebenfalls erhältlich ist Jack Mars’ #1 meistverkaufte LUKE STONE THRILLER SERIE (7 Bücher), die mit Koste es, was es wolle (Buch #1), einem kostenlosen Download mit über 800 Fünf-Sterne Bewertungen, beginnt!
