Black

Christopher Whitcomb’s Cold Zero, a memoir of his FBI service, spent weeks as a New York Times bestseller. Now the man acclaimed author David Baldacci hails as a “rare treasure … who can deliver every mesmerizing detail with the skill and wit of a seasoned novelist,” crafts his first work of fiction, a timely and riveting tale of the fight against terrorism.

Special Agent Jeremy Waller has been chosen for the FBI’s elite Hostage Rescue Team. The assignment is a thrill, but Agent Waller’s own sense of right and wrong soon clashes with the world of danger and corruption surrounding him. Mixing with wealthy tycoons, ambitious politicians, ruthless killers, and Wall Street wizards, Waller is headed straight into the darkness—where secrets must be kept at all costs, and not everybody survives.

An intense thrill ride ripped straight from the headlines, Black is infused with the startling realism only an insider can provide.
