The Delphi Agenda
Rob Swigart
THE INQUISITION IS BACK! AND THIS TIME THEY HAVE TECHNOLOGY. An action-packed unraveling of the secrets of ancient history mixed in with a chilling conspiracy that brings to mind Dan Brown’s bestseller INFERNO. “Swigart is one of the few thriller writers with a poetic sense … [who] knows how to give high velocity to an action mystery.” -San Francisco Chronicle Papyrologist Lisa Emmer’s world flips when the Surete meets her at her Metro station with news of the savage murder of the esteemed Paris historian Dr. Raimond Foix, her friend and mentor in the study of ancient documents. Horrified, Lisa finds clues at the crime scene left behind for her by her mentor—clues to a secret kept hidden for centuries. These clues make her a prime suspect in the murder investigation, and also put her directly in the cross-hairs of a deadly commando group that proves to be none other than a contemporary offshoot of the Inquisition. They want an ancient document that reveals a secret so explosive it could change the world—a document they’ve been tracking for centuries. Led by a sadistic priest and a vicious but very accomplished nun with excellent military cred, their mission is to destroy the document—no matter what the cost in blood.

The Chameleon: Flesh Eater
K M AUL
The Chameleon: Flesh Eater is a fast-paced contemporary technothriller combining biological danger, government investigation, conspiracy, and an unconventional protagonist who operates entirely outside the system. When a CDC researcher is murdered in Atlanta and a potentially devastating biological threat disappears, federal authorities face an enemy they cannot identify and a crisis they may not be able to contain. Their investigation eventually intersects with a mysterious figure known only as The Chameleon—a man with extraordinary resources, meticulous preparation, and an unmatched ability to alter his appearance, identity, and mannerisms until he can become virtually anyone. Behind the disguise is Simon Knight, a highly intelligent and intensely private man guided by a strict personal credo never to kill. Working with Mara, his brilliant remote intelligence partner, Simon follows a trail involving stolen biological material, hidden connections, government secrets, and people willing to unleash catastrophe for their own purposes. The novel blends realistic science and investigative detail with infiltration, surveillance, deception, escapes, physical action, and an escalating race to prevent a biological disaster. At its center is a hero who relies less on firepower than intelligence, preparation, disguise, and the ability to anticipate what his opponents will do next. Flesh Eater is the first book in The Chameleon series and is intended for readers who enjoy technothrillers, espionage thrillers, government conspiracies, scientific threats, intelligent protagonists, and continuing characters whose relationships develop across a series.
