Featuring conspiracy, sedition, and murder, Inside Threat is a classic locked room mystery tasking the reader with determining who can be trusted, who has been turned, and who will prevail. Matthew Quirk has crafted a thrilling novel that exercises and entertains the mind.
An attack on the White House sends the president, his top aides and Secret Service detail to Raven Rock, a subterranean bunker designed to protect the president from those who would do him harm. The only problem is that he’s now locked in a facility 750 feet under a mountain with those very people as the threat is from insiders who believe the president is plotting to enact emergency powers to take over the government. But respected veteran Secret Service agent Erik Hill is part of that detail and he is determined to face the threat head on and lay his life on the line to protect the president. With communications cut, exits sabotaged, and bodies piling up, Erik will have to use his impressive skills and instincts honed over years of service to the US government to determine who to trust and find a way to save the US government from these insurrectionists.
To say Inside Threat is intense would be an understatement. Multiple explosions, gun fights galore, harrowing escapes, risky actions, a high body count and more litter the pages from start to finish. Even the moments of strategic thinking and figuring out how to outmaneuver the other side will have you on the edge of your seat. And just when you think you can catch your breath, another twist or violent outburst occurs. All of which keeps the reader engaged throughout, trying to remain calm enough to puzzle out which characters are being truthful and who is really behind the plot to seize control of the US government.
Fans of action-packed political thrillers with twists and turns will devour Inside Threat. Matthew Quirk continues his hot streak of thrilling Washington, DC based novels, cementing him as a must-read author anytime he has a new book published.
