Rogue Operator (39 page)

The Vault must be sealed, but a construction accident leads to a miraculous
discovery—an ancient tomb containing four Templar Knights, long forgotten, on
the grounds of the Vatican. Not knowing who they can trust, the Vatican requests
Professors James Acton and Laura Palmer examine the find, but what they discover,
a precious Islamic relic, lost during the Crusades, triggers a set of events
that shake the entire world, pitting the two greatest religions against each
other.

Join Professors James Acton and Laura Palmer, INTERPOL Agent Hugh Reading,
Scotland Yard DI Martin Chaney, and the Delta Force Bravo Team as they race
against time to defuse a worldwide crisis that could quickly devolve into all-out
war.

At risk is nothing less than the Vatican itself, and the rock upon which it
was built.

From J. Robert Kennedy, the author of six international bestsellers including
Depraved Difference and The Protocol, comes The Templar’s Relic, the fourth
entry in the smash hit James Acton Thrillers series, where once again Kennedy
takes history and twists it to his own ends, resulting in a heart pounding thrill
ride filled with action, suspense, humor and heartbreak.

get away from everything, and relax. A trip to China seems just the answer,
and he and his fiancée, Professor Laura Palmer, are soon on a flight to Beijing.

the next day, for Dawson knows something they don’t.

Three top secret research scientists are presumed dead in a boating
accident, but the kidnapping of their families the same day raises questions the FBI and local
police can’t answer, leaving them waiting for a ransom demand that will never come.

Central Intelligence Agency Analyst Chris Leroux stumbles upon the story, and finds a phone
conversation that was never supposed to happen. When he reports it to his boss, the
National Clandestine Services Chief, he is uncharacteristically reprimanded for conducting
an unauthorized investigation and told to leave it to the FBI.

But he can’t let it go.

For he knows something the FBI doesn’t.

One of the scientists is alive.

Chris makes a call to his childhood friend, CIA Special Agent Dylan Kane, leading to a race
across the globe to stop a conspiracy reaching the highest levels of political and corporate
America, that if not stopped, could lead to war with an enemy armed with a weapon far worse than
anything in the American arsenal, with the potential to not only destroy the world, but consume it.

J. Robert Kennedy, the author of nine international best sellers, including the smash hit
James Acton Thrillers, introduces Rogue Operator, the first installment of his newest series,
The Special Agent Dylan Kane Thrillers, promising to bring all of the action and intrigue of the
James Acton Thrillers with a hero who lives below the radar, waiting for his country to call when it most desperately needs him.

Would
you help, would you run, or would you just watch?

When a young woman is
brutally assaulted by two men on the subway, her cries for help fall on the
deaf ears of onlookers too terrified to get involved, her misery ended with
the crushing stomp of a steel-toed boot. A cell phone video of her vicious
murder, callously released on the Internet, its popularity a testament to
today's depraved society, serves as a trigger, pulled a year later, for a
killer.

Emailed a video documenting
the final moments of a woman's life, entertainment reporter Aynslee Kai, rather
than ask why the killer chose her to tell the story, decides to capitalize
on the opportunity to further her career. Assigned to the case is Hayden Eldridge,
a detective left to learn the ropes by a disgraced partner, and as videos
continue to follow victims, he discovers they were all witnesses to the vicious
subway murder a year earlier, proving sometimes just watching is fatal.

From the bestselling author of The Protocol and Brass Monkey comes Depraved
Difference, a fast-paced murder suspense novel with enough laughs, heartbreak,
terror and twists to keep you on the edge of your seat, then knock you flat
on the floor with an ending so shocking, you'll read it again just to pick up
the clues.

Crime Scene tech Frank Brata digs deep and finds the
courage to ask his colleague, Sarah, out for coffee after work. Their good time
turns into a nightmare when Frank wakes up the next morning covered in blood,
with no recollection of what happened, and Sarah’s body floating in the tub.
Determined not to go to prison for a crime he’s horrified he may have committed,
he scrubs the crime scene clean, and, tormented by text messages from the real
killer, begins a race against the clock to solve the murder before his own coworkers,
his own friends, solve it first, and find him guilty.

Billionaire Richard Tate is the toast of the town, loved by everyone but his
wife. His plans for a romantic weekend with his mistress ends in disaster, waking
the next morning to find her murdered, floating in the tub. After fleeing in
a panic, he returns to find the hotel room spotless, and no sign of the body.
An envelope found at the scene contains not the expected blackmail note, but
something far more sinister.

Two murders, with the same MO, targeting both the average working man, and
the richest of society, sets a rejuvenated Detective Shakespeare, and his new
reluctant partner, Amber Trace, after a murderer whose motivations are a mystery,
and who appears to be aided by the very people they would least expect—their
own.

Tick Tock, Book #2 in the internationally bestselling Detective Shakespeare
Mysteries series, picks up right where Depraved Difference left off, and asks
a simple question: What would you do? What would you do if you couldn’t prove
your innocence, but knew you weren’t capable of murder? Would you hide the very
evidence that might clear you, or would you turn yourself in and trust the system
to work?

From the internationally bestselling author of The Protocol and Brass Monkey
comes the highly anticipated sequel to the smash hit Depraved Difference, Tick
Tock. Filled with heart pounding terror and suspense, along with a healthy dose
of humor, Tick Tock's twists will keep you guessing right up to the terrifying
end.
