'The Exploit packs a serious punch. Brimming with authentic technologies that power our modern world - as well as the vulnerabilities that threaten it. A dark and gripping tale that we all hope remains fiction!' Daniel Suarez

OUT NOW IN PAPERBACK

When a deadly enemy reappears with a lethal new plan, it's up to FBI Special Agent Ericka Blackwood to stop him - but not before she overcomes the failures of her past.

No way back. No way out. No way home.

Following her harrowing encounter with predatory cybercriminal Dantalion, and her decision to pursue vengeance over duty, Ericka Blackwood hit rock bottom. Her only path to redemption is through the relentless pursuit of her elusive old enemy.

But Ericka is not the only one seeking Dantalion, whose tastes for chaos and carnage have drawn him into the world of international terrorism. When an attempt to destroy a Pakistani jail alerts intelligence services that Dantalion has emerged from hiding, Ericka and her old FBI team are hot on the criminal mastermind's trail.

Which is exactly what he wants...

Perfect for fans of Daniel Suarez, Stieg Larsson and Thomas Harris, The Exploit is the thrilling new novel in the Ericka Blackwood series by acclaimed Canadian author Daniel Scanlan.
