Sinopse

A New York Times bestseller by the author of The Ninja: An American martial artist travels to Tokyo and becomes the target of an international conspiracy.   When his best friend dies under suspicious circumstances, martial arts expert Nicholas Linnear vows revenge. And while he may look American, Linnear’s childhood spent in the dojos of Japan taught him that vengeance must never be hurried.   He takes a job for the billionaire industrialist who ordered the murder, planning to befriend his target during a trip to Tokyo. But even for a modern-day ninja, there is such a thing as too close for comfort. In the bustling city, Linnear finds far more to worry about than the intricacies of Japanese business. He is being pursued by a miko: a female assassin, part ninja and part sorceress, whose beauty is matched only by her skill in combat. Drawn into a tangle of corporate intrigue, international espionage, and hedonistic sex, Linnear will have to put revenge on hold if he is to leave Japan alive.   From the #1 New York Times–bestselling author who currently writes the Jason Bourne novels, this is a “swiftly paced and fascinating” thriller that offers “an intricately designed puzzle” (Chicago Sun-Times).

    I skipped around a small stack of pylons while my deputy cousin unloaded more of the same from the back of the sheriff's pickup. I beamed at Robert Carlisle, not because I adored him. Quite the opposite. I couldn't stand the wretched little piece of loathing with his seventies-esque bush of a black mustache or his pompous superiority. 
     
     
     
    No, I grinned and waved out of sheer delight at his less than enthusiastic expression as he grunted his way through hefting a rather heavy looking barricade onto the sidewalk. 
     
     
     
    "Exercise is good for you," I said as I kept going without offering to help.

    He did not just call me fat and Fanny in the same sentence.

    A mission cloaked in deception. A rogue agent with deadly secrets. A race against time to stop a global catastrophe. 
     
    Former British Secret Service operative John Beckett thought he’d left the world of espionage behind, living a quiet life in Costa Rica.

    Paired with the elusive Erica Reed, Beckett’s pursuit of Turner takes him from New York’s bustling streets to a high-stakes gathering of powerful elites. But as he delves deeper, Beckett discovers that in this world of shifting loyalties, no one is who they seem—and the line between ally and enemy is perilously thin. 
     
    With millions of lives at stake, Beckett faces an impossible choice that will test his loyalties and could alter the course of his life forever. 
     
    Dive into A Bullet for the Past, a gripping thriller in Matthew Hattersley’s John Beckett Series, where every turn reveals a new betrayal, and every ally could be a deadly foe.

    The Author’s Blank Slate plunges readers into a relentless supernatural battle where time itself hangs in the balance. 
    When forgotten holidays, erased bridges, and corrupted memories begin unraveling an entire city, the Circle is called into action. Each carries a gift—foresight, elemental command, the power to sketch truth into being—and each will be pushed to the breaking point. 
    At the heart of the mystery is the Author, a shadow-born manipulator who wields silence and absence as weapons. His ambition is chillingly simple: claim the longest night of the year and stretch it into eternity—a blank slate where dawn never returns. 
    The Circle races to confront him through poisoned birthday wishes, twisted wedding vows, erased bridges, and drowned tides. At the center of it all is Aria—a psychic whose bound voice fuels the Author’s growing power. To stop him, the Circle must risk everything: their strength, sanity, and lives. 
    Ayla bends the elements against impossible odds. Leo holds barriers that crack under shadow’s assault. Charlotte peers into fractured futures, searching for survival. Hope sketches truth into being even as visions twist. Marin and Sparrow, with Helix, push technology and avatar to their limits. Mason, blade in hand, anchors the Circle with unshakable resolve. Together, they must prove dawn cannot be erased—that even the darkest night is only passage, never prison. 
    A paranormal psychic thriller blending time-bending mystery with supernatural suspense, The Author’s Blank Slate grips fans of occult conspiracy, psychic detective fiction, and supernatural crime with escalating tension, vivid dynamics, and a seamless mix of high-tech intrigue and ancient power. 
    This is more than a battle against an enemy. It is a fight for memory, meaning, and every fragile bond that holds humanity together. If the Circle fails, dawn will never come again.
