The Exploit by Daniel Scanlan

'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.

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. Reviews for The Exploit 'An awe-striking heat-seeking missile of a thriller with a compelling narrative.' Kashif Hussain, Best Thriller Books 'A brilliant cross-genre concoction of thriller, techno-thriller, hacker lore, and realistic possibilities.' Stuart Ashenbrunner, Best Thriller Books 'A cat-and-mouse technothriller that spans the globe... Reminiscent of Stieg Larsson’s Millennium Trilogy.' Damyanti Biswas, The Big Thrill

A cat-and-mouse technothriller that spans the globe.. it does so with an ease and sure-footedness reminiscent of international spy thrillers. Reminiscent of Stieg Larsson’s Millennium Trilogy, Blackwood makes for a captivating protagonist—broken, vengeful, and obsessive—besides being as intelligent as she’s resilient. She matches and foils the villain every step of the way. The contest between the two creates a high-octane narrative, a spell-binding, tense story woven through many points-of-view. An uncomfortable, graphic read at times, it builds to a tense crescendo and one of the eeriest endings in a thriller. The scope and twistiness of the narrative lend themselves to the format of a long TV series, and I hope someone makes it soon. -- Damyanti Biswas * The Big Thrill *
A thought provoking and unsettling read... a futuristic tale of betrayal that oozes threat and terror on every page * Promoting Crime Fiction *
