He thought it was just a job. Little did he know, it was the beginning of a life in the shadows…

When Jake Williams accepts a high-stakes assignment in Mexico City to oversee a lucrative “recycling” operation, he expects an ordinary assignment. Instead, he’s plunged into a lethal game of cat and mouse, where betrayal is everywhere, allies are scarce, and he’s forced to navigate a world dominated by brutal criminals and corrupt officials. Along the way, he falls for the stunning Mexican actress Sandra—but as he digs into her past and his employer’s true motives, nothing is as it seems. Was Jake set up from the start?

With time running out and enemies closing in, Jake must trust his instincts, training, and a few unlikely allies to survive. But when the wrong people want you dead, where do you turn?

If you like Lee Child's Jack Reacher, Vince Flynn's Mitch Rapp, Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan, and Robert Ludlum's Jason Bourne, you won't be able to put down the heart-pounding Jake Williams series.

Ben Cartwright, former soldier, home to mourn the loss of his father stumbles upon cryptic letters from the past between the author, Arthur Conan Doyle and his great, great grandfather who vanished while exploring the Amazon jungle in 1908.

Amazingly, these letters lead Ben to believe that his ancestor’s expedition was the basis for Doyle’s fantastical tale of a lost world inhabited by long extinct creatures. As Ben digs some more he finds clues to the whereabouts of a lost notebook that might contain a map to a place that is home to creatures that would rewrite everything known about history, biology and evolution. But other parties now know about the notebook, and will do anything to obtain it. For Ben and his friends, it becomes a race against time and against ruthless rivals. In the remotest corners of Venezuela, along winding river trails known only to lost tribes, and through near impenetrable jungle, Ben and his novice team find a forbidden place more terrifying and dangerous than anything they could ever have imagined.

"[A] high-octane blend of nervy characters, dark humor and bristling dialogue... smart, timely, electrifying."

An exhilarating thrill-ride through the underbelly of cyber espionage in the vein of David Ignatius's The Director and the television series Leverage, CSI: Cyber, and Person of Interest, which follows five iconoclastic hackers who are coerced into serving the U.S. government.

An Anonymous-style rabble rouser, an Arab spring hactivist, a black-hat hacker, an old-school cipherpunk, and an online troll are each offered a choice: go to prison or help protect the United States, putting their brains and skills to work for the government for one year.

But being a white-hat doesn't always mean you work for the good guys. The would-be cyberspies discover that behind the scenes lurks a sinister NSA program, an artificial intelligence code-named Typhon, that has origins and an evolution both dangerous and disturbing. And if it's not brought down, will soon be uncontrollable.

Can the hackers escape their federal watchers and confront Typhon and its mysterious creator? And what does the government really want them to do? If they decide to turn the tables, will their own secrets be exposed—and their lives erased like lines of bad code?

Combining the scientific-based, propulsive narrative style of Michael Crichton with the eerie atmosphere and conspiracy themes of The X-Files and the imaginative, speculative edge of Neal Stephenson and William Gibson, Zer0es explores our deep-seated fears about government surveillance and hacking in an inventive fast-paced novel sure to earn Chuck Wendig the widespread acclaim he deserves.
