Book excerpt: The New York Times bestselling "master" (Stephen King) of American thriller writing returns with an electrifying new novel about a mother seeking to reconnect with her children after a terrible trial tears their family apart. Nina Morgan’s bloodstained car was found a decade ago on a lonely Florida road. Forensic evidence suggested she’d been murdered, although her body was never found. Her disappearance left her infant children to the care of their father. Once a pilot, mother, wife, and witness to a gruesome crime, Nina had to flee her old life to save her family. She reinvented herself as Leah Trenton, a guide in the Allagash Wilderness in northern Maine. She never expected to see her children again, but now tragedy has returned them to her—only they have no idea that she’s their mother—and delivered all of them back into danger. “Aunt Leah” will need some help, and an old ally has a suggestion: an enigmatic young hitman named Dax Blackwell. Never Far Away is a thrilling collision between old sins and new dreams, where the wills and ingenuity of a broken family will be tested against all odds.

Book excerpt: The coup d’etat begins to bubble when a Executive Contingency Plan is leaked that orders officials to “euthanize” prison inmates in the event of a major nuclear, biological, or chemical attack against the US. A Leavenworth convict, former Captain Ben Simon, jailed for illegal and covert intrigues in Nicaragua discovers the contents of the directive. Simon, well trained by the U.S. military in counter-intelligence and propaganda, uses this directive to galvanize the population into a multiple prison breakout followed by inmate staged terrorist attacks. Simon achieves total insurrection when he informs the public the remainder of the Federal “euthanasia” plan. Inmates were not the only intended targets. Mental patients, premature infants and other "undesirables" were also in line for mercy killing. The coup succeeds and John Cotton is called upon to terminate the leader. As Cotton plots his strategy the story spirals in all directions with dealings, double-dealings and Machiavellian plans gone awry. Techno thriller fans won’t be disappointed by the array of artificial intelligence, electronic warfare and other extremely unorthodox military hardware and tactics. If you want to be thrilled by a savage but credible story of a U.S. insurrection in our time you’ve found it with Coup America.
