The Story
Everyone has secrets... Some are just more deadly than others.
Madison Maxwell is convinced her new VP boss isn’t who he says he is…
Everyone at Madison’s new company loves TJ Khan, the charismatic and powerful VP of the Silicon Valley tech giant, Know Inc.
But they haven’t experienced Madison’s troubled past—losing her father on 9/11 as a child. And now the nightmare she’s spent her whole life trying to understand is back. Maybe it’s because she’s just discovered she’s replacing the employee killed in a mysterious hit-and-run. Or maybe her subconscious is trying to warn her about Khan.
Either way, there’s no logical reason to question Khan’s identity, and no one would believe her if she shared her suspicions. They’d simply dismiss her as a damaged trauma survivor.
Until a grainy video finds its way to her—one that stops her cold and shatters everything she thought she knew.
A video someone will kill to protect.
A video that launched FBI Special Agent Markus Niles into a race to uncover a shadow network and a diabolical conspiracy before it strikes on an unimaginable scale.
And to stop what’s coming, Niles may need Madison in ways she doesn’t yet understand.
But nothing is what it seems—and none of them are prepared for the reckoning coming their way.
Tick…tick…tick…
"Pederson’s debut is a masterclass in narrative misdirection.
A cinematic, emotionally charged debut that reads like a cross between Homeland and The Girl on the Train. It’s a conspiracy thriller with a beating heart—and it doesn’t let go. "-- J Kromrie, Netgalley
"A nail-biting thriller!
It’s the kind of book that grips you tightly, leaving your heart pounding and your mind racing as you try to piece together its tangled web of intrigue. Be prepared for relentless tension. The plot races forward with the urgency of a stopwatch, and just when you think you’ve figured out where it’s heading, Pederson veers into unexpected territory. The twists are shocking, yet they don’t feel cheap or contrived—they’re the kind that make you pause, re-read a passage, and mutter, 'I did not see that coming.'" — John Kelly.
"Get ready for heart-pounding twists, deception and danger at every turn.
Hooks you from the first scene, delivering a shot of pure action and an emotional roller-coaster that will leave you breathless.” -- Cathy V.
