Evan Ryder is back in The Kobalt Dossier, the stunning follow-up to The Nemesis Manifesto from New York Times bestselling author Eric Van Lustbader.
After thwarting the violent international fascist syndicate known as Nemesis, Evan Ryder returns to Washington, D.C., only to find her secret division of the Department of Defense shut down and her deceased sister's children missing. Now the target of a cabal of American billionaires who were among Nemesis's supporters, Evan and her former boss, Ben Butler, must learn to work together as partners – and navigate their intricate past – as they hunt down her family's kidnappers.
Their search will take them from Istanbul to Odessa to an ancient church deep within the Carpathian Mountains of Romania. And all along the way, an unimaginable enemy stalks in the shadows, an adversary whose secretive past will upend Evan's entire world, and might just annihilate her.
'An outstanding series launch ... Credible action and often lyrical prose support the complex, intelligent plot. A series of twists and an extended fight sequence at the end will leave readers amazed and pleasantly exhausted. Lustbader is at the top of his game' Publishers Weekly, starred review.
'There are thrillers, then there are world-class, expertly plotted, thought-provoking thrillers like The Nemesis Manifesto ... Consider me thoroughly blown away' Raymond Khoury, New York Times bestselling author of The Last Templar.
'Hypnotically suspenseful, rich with authentic spycraft, The Nemesis Manifesto introduces a heroine of our times – Evan Ryder. She's deep undercover and as complex as she is exciting. From Washington, D.C. to Russia and Germany, Lustbader weaves a spellbinding web of memorable characters, cutting-edge technology, and powerful political ambitions that could become all too real. Sit back and enjoy. You're about to read a master at the top of a very dangerous game' Gayle Lynds, New York Times bestselling author of The Assassins.
'Lustbader is in excellent form here. The Nemesis Manifesto is dark, sophisticated and compelling, and couldn't be more timely. And Evan Ryder is a keeper!' David Baldacci.
