Authors are encouraged to hook readers with their first sentence, and Patrick Oster does just that, drawing us immediately into the world of Duncan MacEwan, the protagonist. Told in a compelling first-person narrative, readers get to ride along with Duncan as he deals with loss and steps into a complex mystery.
Following the tragic death of his wife, Deborah, in an explosive car accident, Duncan stumbles upon several startling discoveries among his wife’s belongings—including a substantial amount of cash. This revelation shakes the foundation of everything he thought he knew about his wife of over ten years.
Determined to uncover the truth, Duncan embarks on a methodical investigation: Who was Deborah really? Why was she involved in dangerous work? And most important, did she work for the good guys or the bad guys?
With the help of a couple of tech-savvy, well-connected acquaintances, Duncan—and the reader—navigate the twists and turns of a compelling journey. As he delves deeper into Deborah’s shadowy past, Duncan faces deception, frustration, and violence. The more Duncan uncovers, the clearer it becomes that his wife was entangled in the world of espionage. Alongside him, readers are introduced to the clandestine realms of spy agencies, the dark web, and cutting-edge weaponry.
Patrick Oster’s clear and direct prose, honed by his years as an international journalist, makes the story flow effortlessly. Each chapter introduces new puzzles, keeping readers hooked from start to finish. Fair warning—don’t start this novel unless you’re prepared to read straight through to the end.
