Near Dark
The world’s largest bounty has just been placed upon America’s top spy. His only hope for survival is to outwit, outrun, and outlast his enemies long enough to get to the truth.
But for Scot Harvath to accomplish his most dangerous mission ever—one that has already claimed the lives of the people closest to him, including his new wife—he’s going to need help—a lot of it.
Not knowing whom he can trust, Harvath finds an unlikely ally in Norwegian intelligence operative Sølvi Kolstad. Just as smart, just as deadly, and just as determined, she not only has the skills, but also the broken, troubled past to match Harvath’s own.

Brad Thor
In a crowded field of espionage fiction, Brad Thor writes like someone who assumes the threat briefing just ended and the clock is already ticking.
Born in Chicago in 1969, Thor did not begin his career in a bunker or on a battlefield, but in classrooms and television studios. He studied creative writing, film, and television at the University of Southern California, graduating with honors, and later created and hosted the PBS travel series Traveling Lite. That early immersion in visual storytelling left its mark. His novels move with the clean precision of a well-edited scene, locations rendered sharply, action unfolding in tight, escalating beats.
