Publisher Description
"Quirk has earned his spot in the front ranks of thriller writers." — David Baldacci
An electrifying thriller from the author of The Night Agent now on Netflix, an attack on the White House sends the President and his top aides to take shelter in a top secret government facility buried deep underground—but they soon discover the threat is locked inside with them.
Assume the worst. Code Black.
The day that every secret service agent trains for has arrived. The White House has been breached; the President forced to flee to a massive doomsday bunker outside DC to defend against whatever comes next. Only the most trusted agents and officials are allowed in with him—those dedicated to keeping the government intact at all costs.
Among these is Eric Hill, who has given his life to the Secret Service. They are his purpose and his family, and his impressive record has made him a hero among them. Despite his growing disillusionment from seeing Washington corruption up close, Eric can’t ignore years of instincts honed on the job. The government is under attack, and no one is better equipped to face down the threat than he is.
The evidence leads him to a conspiracy at the highest levels of power, with the attack orchestrated by some of the very individuals now locked in with him. As the killers strike inside the bunker, it will take everything Eric Hill has to save his people, himself, and his country.

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
The battle over American democracy takes a dangerous and bloody turn in Matthew Quirk’s pulse-pounding thriller. Fed up with the corruption and political infighting plaguing Washington, DC, Secret Service agent Eric Hill is ready to walk away from a decorated career. But a White House crisis snaps him back to attention, leaving him trapped in a Cold War–era bunker with the president—and the people who want to overthrow him. Quirk brilliantly sets Hill up with the near-impossible task of figuring out whether the president should be protected at all costs…or if the seditionists accusing him of tyrannical dictatorship are right. And he makes the tense story feel unnervingly plausible. Inside Threat is a political potboiler with a thought-provoking premise and plenty of action.

The book shows how easily lies become truth. Is the government based on truth or lies. The president and his Secret Service detail find out. Good read, and leaves you questioning who to trust! Very much enjoyed this one.
