<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>An explosive thriller from the acclaimed co-creator of <i>Chicago Fire<i> featuring his dynamic and compelling anti-hero, Columbus.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>It is the middle of February on Mackinac Island, a tiny community off the northern Michigan coast. But Columbus isn't here to enjoy the picturesque surroundings. Reeling after the death of his wife and relinquishing his son, he lives in isolation--in self-imposed punishment and exile, forgotten and alone, nameless to his neighbors. But even if he runs and hides, Columbus is never alone for long. </p><p>Ten years after Columbus--one of the most original antiheroes in contemporary fiction--first exploded onto the scene in <em>The Silver Bear, </em> Derek Haas delivers another riveting thriller that promises heart-pounding action and shocking twists until the very last page.</p><p> </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>Introduces a plot that takes this self-exiled assassin to the Pacific Northwest to protect a software inventor from being eliminated by persons or governments unknown. But there's no time to linger on the particulars when Columbus is stocking up on the latest weaponry and getting ready to face a killer as cool as he is." --Marilyn Stasio, <em>New York Times Book Review</em></p><p>"Columbus is now easily recognizable as one of the best<br /> antiheroes in contemporary crime fiction. Haas is still in fine form<br /> and producing the kind of explosive literature that has made him<br /> a household name."<strong>--<em>Criminal Element</em></strong></p><p>"You won't be able to avert your eyes from a single scene in this stripped-down, <br /> dead-eyed, professional-grade actioner."<strong><em>--Kirkus Reviews</em></strong></p><p>"Haas succeeds at making our slightly evolved Columbus as intriguing (and screen-worthy) in this fifth episode as he was in our first dangerous glimpse of him."<strong><em>--Booklist </em>(starred)</strong></p><p>"Gripping. Haas packs solid suspense, vivid action, and well-developed characters into a tight plot that never lags."<br /> <strong><em>--Publishers Weekly</em></strong></p><p>"A tense, tightly coiled plot that erupts with action on almost every page."<strong><em>--Mystery Scene Magazine</em></strong></p><br>
