THE MEDUSA PROTOCOL is available now!

The follow-up to ASSASSINS ANONYMOUS is here.

It’s here!

The Medusa Protocol is the follow-up to Assassins Anonymous, which was about Mark, formerly the Pale Horse, and his journey from deadliest assassin in the world, through his recovery.

This book shifts the lens a little. Mark is still there, but this is Astrid’s story.

After getting kidnapped off the street and thrown in a black site prison, we learn about her, and what brought her to the killing life, while Mark and the others jet around the world trying to find her.

Sequels are hard. Book sequels especially so—it has to work as a standalone, in case this is the first book in the series that someone picks up, while also expanding on the world and characters. After writing the Ash McKenna series all those years ago, I thought I’d never write another series again.

Then I met Mark (or Mark met me, I have no idea how this stuff works), and this world was too good to pass up. I had to come back.

Part of coming back, of course, was because when the book was optioned by Amblin and Spielberg, they saw it as a film franchise. Fingers crossed on that. There’ve been some exciting developments there.

I love writing these characters, and if you’re a fan of the series thus far, you’ll be happy to know the third (Three Hitmen and a Baby) is already with my editor… so we’re not done yet.

And if sales of this one are good enough, we might get a fourth! So, order it, spread the word, etc. First week sales are important. For momentum but also my fragile writer ego.

You can find links to buy it here, and if you want a signed edition you can contact either Poisoned Pen or The Mysterious Bookshop.

Thank you, everyone—for following, for reading… for everything. I feel very lucky I still get to do this for a living.
