Joseph Finder, New York Times bestselling author of Paranoia and Company Man, returns with perhaps his finest novel yet — another “high-octane thrill ride” from the writer proclaimed as “a master of the modern thriller.”

Jason Steadman is a thirty-year-old sales executive for a major electronics company. He’s a witty, charismatic guy who’s well liked at the office, but he lacks the “killer instinct” necessary to move up the corporate ladder. To the chagrin of his ambitious wife, it looks like his career has hit a ceiling. Jason’s been sidelined.

But all of that will change one evening when Jason meets Kurt Semko, a former Special Forces officer just back from Iraq. Looking for a decent pitcher for the company softball team, Jason gets Kurt, who was once drafted by the majors, a job in corporate security. Soon, good things start to happen for Jason — and bad things start to happen to Jason’s rivals.

Jason’s career takes off. Only too late does he discover that his friend Kurt has been secretly paving his path to the top by the most “efficient” — and ruthless — means available. When Jason tries to put a stop to it, he finds that his new best friend has become the most dangerous enemy imaginable. And now it’s far more than just his career that lies in the balance.

A riveting tale of ambition, intrigue, and the price of success, Killer Instinct is Joseph Finder at his very best.

Charlie Stone, a brilliant analyst for the CIA predicts a coup in the U.S.S.R. He finds links to his family history and becomes involved in a nightmare of violence and paranoia

Michael Tanner is on his way home from a business trip when he accidentally picks up the wrong MacBook in an airport security line. He doesn’t notice the mix-up until he arrives home in Boston, but by then it’s too late. Tanner’s curiosity gets the better of him when he discovers that the owner is a US senator and that the laptop contains top secret files.

When Senator Susan Robbins realizes she’s come back with the wrong laptop, she calls her young chief of staff, Will Abbott, in a panic. Both know that the senator broke the law by uploading classified documents onto her personal computer. If those documents wind up in the wrong hands, it could be Snowden 2.0 — and her career in politics will be over. She needs to recover the MacBook before it’s too late.

When Will fails to gain Tanner’s cooperation, he is forced to take measures to retrieve the laptop before a bigger security breach is revealed. He turns to an unscrupulous “fixer” for help. In the meantime, the security agency whose files the senator has appropriated has its own methods, darker still — and suddenly Tanner finds himself a hunted man, on the run, terrified for the safety of his family, in desperate need of a plan, and able to trust no one.

A breathtaking escape from a maximum-security prison in South Africa. A beautiful call girl found brutally murdered in Boston. A fugitive American billionaire in Switzerland, obsessed with revenge... So opens Joseph Finder’s electrifying new suspense thriller, The Zero Hour.

When an ominous, digitally encrypted telephone call is intercepted by the NSA’s spy satellites high over Switzerland, FBI Special Agent Sarah Cahill — irreverent, outspoken, a brilliant counterterrorism expert, a divorced mother of an eight-year-old boy — is urgently summoned to New York to investigate an imminent terrorist attack on lower Manhattan.

Her investigation immediately turns into the desperate pursuit of a highly sophisticated and charismatic terrorist operative, known only by the code name Zero. Sarah must direct an intensive, absolutely secret manhunt for an exceptionally dangerous man whose identity she doesn’t know — even though he knows her intimately.

Suddenly Sarah and her young son are plunged headlong into a terrifying labyrinth of intrigue, an elaborate game of cat and mouse that imperils their lives, forcing Sarah to race to uncover a diabolically clever terrorist conspiracy... before the zero hour.

Unique in its realism and wealth of riveting insider detail, and with an explosive conclusion of almost unbearable, fasten-your-seal-belt suspense, here is a tour de force of international intrigue certain to be the page-turner of the year.

A Nick Heller Novel #1

Lauren Heller and her husband Roger, a brilliant executive at a major corporation, are attacked in a Georgetown parking lot after an evening out. Knocked unconscious by the assailants, Lauren lies in a coma in the hospital while her husband has vanished without a trace.

With nowhere else to turn, Lauren’s teenage son Gabe reaches out to his uncle, Nick Heller, a high-powered investigator with a corporate intelligence firm in Washington, D.C. Having returned to town on the next available flight, Nick finds Lauren conscious, the police skeptical and his older brother Roger still missing.

Nick and Roger have been on the outs since the arrest, trial and conviction of their father, the notorious ‘fugitive financier,’ Victor Heller. Whereas Roger chose to follow in their father’s footsteps and join the corporate world, Nick instead rebelled. He enlisted in the Special Forces and later he served in a highly secretive intelligence unit in the Pentagon.

Now working for one of the most respected firms of corporate ‘fixers,’ Nick’s looking into his brother’s disappearance unexpectedly pits him against the interests of some extremely influential forces in Washington, including his own boss. With few allies and many enemies, Nick is forced to seek help where he can – including from his own despised father, still in prison in upstate New York. Nick finds himself on a collision course with one of the most powerful and secretive corporations in the world, whose minions will stop at nothing to protect the secrets that Nick Heller is determined to uncover – secrets that reach into the highest levels of the government…and may get Nick and everyone he’s trying to protect killed.
