  Kade is a closer. 
  He's the man you call when a high-stakes deal goes sideways and you need the remains buried deep. He's used to danger, but his latest job is personal. His friend has vanished from the luxury resort world of Aurora, leaving behind nothing but a cryptic, terrified message. 
  Kade arrives on Aurora expecting a tropical paradise. Instead, he finds a gilded cage. The Neo androids that serve the guests are a little too lifelike. They have pulses. They bleed. And they're watching Kade's every move. 
  As the colony descends into lockdown and communication is severed, Kade realizes the missing tourists aren't just being killed. 
  They're being converted. 
  Into what, Kade doesn't know. 
  Trapped and hunted, Kade must forge an uneasy alliance with a lethal assassin to escape Aurora. Not easy when putting a bullet in her would be safer. To survive, Kade will have to face a truth that could rewrite the future of the human race. 
  Because on Aurora, the line between man and machine isn't just thin—it's bleeding. 
  Perfect for fans of Altered Carbon, Black Mirror, and Blade Runner. Conversion is a pulse-pounding, psychological sci-fi thriller where identity is everything.

  A stylish, suspense–filled novel of espionage, shadowy morality, and unraveling secrets set on the sun–drenched Greek island of Vidos. 
  On the Greek island of Vidos the past lingers like salt in the air. The inhabitants—former members of MI6—are sent here to be forgotten, exiled: either too damaged or too compromised to be allowed to live freely. 
  For years, residents make the best of their fate—old enemies reconcile, long–lost friends swim together in the warm sea, and estranged lovers share a bed once more. But secrets bind tightly. And when one of their own washes up dead, alliances fracture and a tide of suspicion begins to rise. 
  A vivid reimagining of a real, hidden slice of the British Intelligence Service's history, A Stranger in Corfu is an exquisitely tense, masterfully spun novel of unravelling secrets and the futility of trying to outrun the past.
