Beschreibung

At 3 a.m., a thief thwarts security and enters the British Museum’s Enlightenment Hall. His goal? To steal occult artifacts and unlock the secrets of otherworldly power.
 
When a security guard is killed during the heist, it marks only the beginning of a sinister spree. Inspectors Vance and Shepherd are drawn into a web of black magic and secret societies. As they pursue the mastermind behind the crimes, psychic investigator Amy Baxter offers them a helping hand.
 
With time running out, the detectives must navigate a world where ancient mysteries collide with modern technology. Can they stop the killings before the thief’s insatiable hunger for power leads to even greater horrors?

    “Filled with intrigue and shocking twists, it’s a must-read for anyone who loves political thrillers with real-world relevance.” —Jennifer Eaton, USA TODAY Bestselling Author 
    Dr. Arman Pirouzi left Iran behind for a better life in the United States until he is reluctantly recruited by the CIA and returns to Tehran, where the ruthless IRGC hunts, tortures, and routinely kills spies and traitors with brutal efficiency. His mission: locate a critical asset, extract classified intelligence, and stop a war before it starts. His challenge: survive the most dangerous city in the world, where old friends become enemies, past loves are rekindled, and death waits around any corner. Capture means torture. Failure means catastrophe. But the greatest danger of all? Trusting the wrong person. Dead Man’s Pacemaker is a high-stakes political thriller in the tradition of The Night Manager and The Tehran Initiative—a heart-pounding race against time where anyone can be your enemy. 
    Your mission starts now. Will you make it out alive?

    Micah Hart had learned a few things the first few months of officially dating Damon Romano, a vicious mafioso/ridiculously rich billionaire, infamous throughout New York City for his cut-throat "business" tactics: 
     
     
     
    1. Damon was soft for nothing and no one . . . except Micah (and maybe his sisters). 2. His domineering tendencies definitely extended to the bedroom. 3. Damon didn't trust him—not completely. 
     
     
     
    That last one shouldn't have hurt as much as it did. After all, there were bound to be certain obstacles to overcome in a relationship when one person was a mafia don and the other was a police-detective-turned-PI. 
     
     
     
    Damon keeps Micah far away from anything related to his "work," and Micah allows it . . . at least until a stripper named Ginger waltzes into his struggling detective agency, claiming that her boyfriend—also a stripper—is trying to kill her. Ginger just so happens to work at Lust, the most infamous of a chain of clubs Damon has specifically warned Micah away from. 
     
     
     
    Taking the job would require him to go undercover at Lust, and he should say no. But Damon is out of town for the weekend. What's the worst that could happen?
