A MURDER IN PARIS SPARKS A DEADLY HUNT FOR A TREATOR INSIDE ODIN…

Multiple time USA TODAY & Amazon 6-million copy bestselling authors DAVID ARCHER and BLAKE BANNER have combined forces to create one hell of a thriller series!

ODIN is an organization which is above top secret. It coordinates intelligence from the so-called Five Eyes: The United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and New Zealand – and it acts on that intelligence. For that reason, it’s level of security is the highest on the planet.

Or so they thought, until top ODIN agent Mira Finn was murdered in Paris, her tortured body dragged from the Seine. A handful of people knew she was in France, fewer than that knew what her mission was. Two of them were Alex Mason and Nero, the chief of Odin itself, the other two were General Patrick O’Connor, chief security advisor to the President, and the President himself.

One of those four men was the traitor who had leaked Mira’s mission. Of the remaining three, only two were innocent. The other was the scapegoat.

Alex Mason knew that was him. He was officially on the run, and he had thirty-six hours to find the truth, clear his name and avert a global catastrophe of unprecedented proportions.

Blake Banner

Raised by well-meaning Marxist parents and educated at home, I spent more time memorizing the parts of a gun and studying martial arts than learning the Greek alphabet. By sixteen I was breaking in wild horses, and occasionally breaking a few bones of my own.

The years that followed involved travel, risk, and stories worth telling. Dyslexia made writing a challenge, which only made me more determined to master it. Reading was never the problem, writing was.

Stone, Dehan, Bauer, Walker, Rogue, and Mason were born from my lifelong love of noir. While I was supposed to be reading Marx, I was devouring Chandler, Hammett, and Spillane. Marlowe, Hammer, the Continental Op — they were my real teachers.

Alex Mason

In a world shadowed by secrets and relentless danger, the Alex Mason series plunges readers into a high-stakes journey where survival hinges on wit, loyalty, and unyielding resolve.

The narrative pulses with a gritty intensity, combining sharp, fast-paced action with moments that reveal the complex layers beneath Alex’s tough exterior. The atmosphere is taut and charged, capturing the uneasy tension of a landscape where trust is rare and every ally could hold a knife behind their back.

What sets this series apart is its blend of thriller and suspense with deeply human stakes, exploring themes of identity, redemption, and the consequences of choices made in shadows. The world-building feels lived-in and urgent, grounding the adrenaline-fueled plot in realistic, detailed settings that enhance the story’s immersive pull.

For readers drawn to suspenseful, character-driven tales that don’t shy away from moral ambiguity or the darker edges of humanity, this series offers a compelling escape. Each chapter turns the page on fresh threats and fragile alliances, keeping the tension taut while slowly unraveling the mysteries that define Alex’s relentless quest.
