"[T]he most exciting, adrenaline-pumping, butt-kicking novel I've read in years," this thriller set in an amusement park is "highly recommended" (Christopher Reich, New York Times– bestselling author of Rules of Deception and Numbered Account ). For the visitors to Wilsonville, the largest theme park in the world, the day began with a smile. By the end, they wonder--will they be able to escape with their lives? Retired Delta Force operator, Master Sergeant Jonathan "Jad" Bell, is Wilsonville's lead undercover security officer. The threat begins with the announcement of a hidden dirty bomb, but quickly becomes something far, far worse. Trained since the age of seventeen to save innocent victims from impossible hostage situations, Jad scrambles to assess the threat and protect the visitors. He will come face to face with a villain whose training matches his in every way--and presents a threat Jad may not be able to stop. "Pitch-perfect. . . . A lean, mean thriller with just the right amount of character development and unexpected complications will appeal all who enjoy this genre but particularly to readers who like a strong hero along the lines of Lee Child's Jack Reacher. Highly recommended." — Library Journal, starred review "Pulse-pounding. . . . Rucka mixes suspense and an alarmingly realistic plot with ease." — Publishers Weekly Praise for Greg Rucka: "One of our best writers." —Lee Child, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Jack Reacher series "A true professional." — Chicago Tribune "Read Greg Rucka. It's that simple. Open one of his books and what you've got is a fistful of dynamite." — The Cincinnati Enquirer "Greg Rucka is a refreshingly bold talent." —Dennis Lehane, #1 New York Times–bestsellng author of Mystic River
