by Richard Martin

Some may worry that a Hydrax Gamble could happen; some that is already has.

Returning to America and discovering the U.S. is now covertly involved, they enter a race - not just to publish their findings, but to defend themselves against powerful forces that are out to protect the terrifying secret of the Hydrax Gamble.

I’d love to see more books by this author, featuring the characters from this book. Took a bit of concentration at times, but well worth paying attention as it’s a good mystery. The characters are not always likeable but they are compelling and real. I liked the clarity of prose, too. Highly recommended and hope to see more.

From the very beginning this novel is a ticking time bomb. If you only read one thriller this year be sure to make it this one.
Combining the excitement of a Dan Brown novel, the clever twists and turns of a Robert Ludlum thriller, and the style and panache of a Joseph Kanon plot, the author has created a literary blockbuster with his own unique style.
Richard Martin takes one on an unimaginable journey.
