Perfect for you if...

  • You enjoy espionage thrillers with personal stakes, where the protagonist's past catches up with them in unexpected ways.
  • You like tight, propulsive plots set in real locations (the Alps here) with a clear ticking clock and high-stakes consequences.
  • You appreciate protagonists who are morally grey but fundamentally decent, forced to navigate a world where trust is currency.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer character studies over plot-driven narratives, or want deep psychological exploration rather than action momentum.
  • You're looking for romance to be central to the story. Mac's personal life matters here, but this is fundamentally about stopping a threat.
  • You want standalone thrillers with neat resolutions. This is book one of a series, so expect threads left hanging.

About this book

A family death and a past adversary pull retired CIA agent Mac Dekker back into active service in this alpine thriller. Robbie Steinhardt has built a quiet life in a small alpine village, tending cattle and avoiding thoughts of his former identity as Mac Dekker and the family and lover he abandoned. When his son Will dies after following in his footsteps, Dekker seeks answers about Will's final mission in the alpine heights and the involvement of Ilya Ivashka—his former close friend and romantic rival who once framed him for treason and forced him into hiding. Dekker returns to fieldwork to uncover what Will concealed, only to discover himself confronting a terrorist plot threatening thousands of lives. Surrounded by double agents, he must determine who he can trust.
