Congo Nightfall
FROM FORMER GREEN BERET AND USA TODAY BESTSELLING AUTHOR JASON KASPER
When elite CIA operative David Rivers and his paramilitary team are dispatched to the heart of Africa, their mission is clear: eliminate the notorious terrorist warlord, Chijioke Mubenga, before he can unleash chaos upon the world.
But fate has other plans.
A streak of anti-aircraft fire lights up the night sky, turning a covert parachute jump into a nightmare descent. Stranded miles from their rendezvous point and deep within a hostile jungle, Rivers and his team are cut off, hunted, and desperate.
In their quest for survival, they uncover a web of treachery that extends far beyond the Congo’s borders. As they close in on Mubenga, Rivers uncovers a conspiracy that threatens to reshape the very fabric of global security.
In a land where trust is a luxury and every path holds potential danger, Rivers must navigate his team through a maze of betrayal, drawing on every ounce of his skill, leadership, and instinct to outwit an enemy that always seems two steps ahead. The hunt is on…but in the Congo, nothing is as it seems.
And the cost of failure is unimaginable.

Jason Kasper
Jason Kasper doesn’t write thrillers that let you breathe easy. He writes the kind that drag you into the shadows and keep you there, pulse ticking, until the final chapter. His work is a high-wire act of tension and authenticity—because he’s not just imagining danger. He’s lived it.
Before turning to fiction, Kasper served as a U.S. Army Special Forces officer, with combat deployments in Afghanistan and a firsthand understanding of the stakes behind the missions. That real-world experience bleeds through every page of his bestselling Shadow Strike and Spider Heist series. You can feel it in the precision of the action scenes, in the way his characters calculate risk and navigate chaos. These aren’t just thrillers—they’re field-tested adrenaline shots.
Shadow Strike
In the murky world of covert warfare, there are operations so classified they don’t officially exist—and men trained to vanish before their shadows hit the ground. That’s the brutal, high-stakes terrain the Shadow Strike series plunges into, delivering a relentless blend of psychological intensity, tactical precision, and moral complexity.
Shadow Strike consists of ten books. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
