LINE OF SUCCESSION
The nation is rocked by a series of high-level assassinations so devastating that the magnitude is hidden from public view. As the Pentagon begins retaliating against suspected radicals abroad, Blake Carver soon realizes that his job isn’t as easy as hunting down a group of foreign extremists.
This war isn’t about religion, foreign policy or oil. It’s up to Carver to stop a powerful adversary seizing control of the planet’s most precious resource: water.
“Clips along at an astonishing pace with verve and grace.” - Jerry Gabriel, award-winning author of Drowned Boy.
“Will keep you up at night long after you've turned the final page.” - Keir Graff, author of The Price of Liberty
“A gripper that won’t let go.” - Book Boogie
