Publisher Description
On an ordinary summer day, chaos erupts across the globe when thousands of cars simultaneously speed out of control in the United States and Europe. The death toll is enormous, and there is only one thing connecting the crashes—every single car is the same model.
Amidst the bewilderment of the tragedy, ICE Special Agent Dominic Verrazzano is called to the Brooklyn Detention Center, where Tom Frisch, recently arrested for attempting to assassinate a U.N. President, claims to have knowledge about the mastermind behind the crashes. This is just the tip of the iceberg, and an even bigger catastrophe, involving many more motor companies, is already in the works.
Verrazzano has no choice but to take Frisch with him as he tracks down an enemy that both men know far too well—their old Special Forces commander and father figure. Following leads that take them from New York to Detroit and on to Europe, Verrazzano finally lands in a confrontation that unravels a secret even more sinister than he could have expected.
Relentless and enthralling, Matt Rees's second Dominic Verrazzano thriller China Strike takes readers on a high-speed pursuit that spans countries and oceans.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
A terrible New York City traffic jam kicks off Rees's high-speed, action-filled sequel to 2016's The Damascus Threat. Across the world, all the late model Darien cars suddenly malfunction and begin racing out of control. The ensuing crashes are horrific. It soon becomes obvious that the computers on the Dariens have been hacked and the perpetrators are planning a much wider malfunction scheme, which may include every new-model auto on earth. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent Dominic Verrazzano and FBI special agent Gina Jahn find the Chinese government is behind the hack and follow a bloody trail of auto company computer experts who have several things in common: they're all Chinese, they've all been murdered, and they've all been scalped. The suspense rises as Dom, Gina, and other agents pursue the bad guys around the globe. The open ending suggests that Dom will continue his search for the top evildoer in the next installment.
