Beschreibung

New York Times–Bestselling Author: A British MP and an intelligence agent suspect a vast conglomerate of drug crimes—but must live long enough to prove it . . .   In the jungles of northern Burma, land has been cleared and construction of a large, luxurious resort is well underway. At the same time, Burmese heroin has suddenly started pouring into Western nations. British agent Patrick Hyde suspects it isn’t a coincidence.   Is the worldwide hotel chain that’s building the resort using its casinos to launder drug money? How is the Chinese government involved? And is there any connection to the recent murder of a Burmese man—a constituent of British MP Marion Pyott? Hyde must follow the tangled threads and keep both himself and Marion alive in this gripping novel of passion, politics, and espionage from the renowned author of Firefox and A Different War.   “When it comes to keeping the story moving and stoking up the excitement, Mr. Thomas knows his business.” —The New York Times

    There is one last chance to save the democracy George Washington founded. That last chance is Washington himself. 
    It is 2028 and a certain president wants a third term. The Constitution shouldn’t allow it but the Supreme Court has found a workaround. The electoral system has been mangled. The media is a joke. Voters can barely be troubled to vote. But thanks to a team of scientists George Washington has been brought from the past to regain the presidency. Written by New York Times bestselling author Paul Greenberg, A Third Term tells the story of how hard Candidate Washington has to fight to win in these corrupt times. Riddled with pneumonia, possessing dentures fashioned from slave’s teeth, and an aristocratic sensibility tempered by war and religious faith, the Father of Our Country requires considerable rehabilitation to challenge the man he only refers to as “The Tyrant.” Fortunately a wily campaign manager and a sexy personal trainer are there by his side.
