Book Blast + #Giveaway: The Good Spy Dies Twice by Mark Hosack @markhosack @GoddessFish
The Good Spy Dies Twice
by Mark
Hosack
GENRE: Thriller
BLURB:
"The Good Spy
Dies Twice," the cryptic final words from a condemned death row inmate
draw Jake Boxer, the one-time king of cable news, out of retirement, setting
him on a collision course with a deadly global conspiracy involving his
secretive wife, a depraved New World Order, and the "guests" at a
posh Alaskan ski resort. Everyone is a suspect. Part spy thriller, part
whodunit, "The Good Spy Dies Twice" is the first book in Mark
Hosack's explosive new thriller series, Bullseye. Called "an undeniably
spry and rousing espionage tale" by Kirkus Reviews.
Excerpt:
Panting (he was an audio guy, not an
athlete), Brody reached the fence. He put a hand on it and felt his arm spasm
uncontrollably in one long, sustained, hot pulse.
The same type of electric shock that
had knocked him off the second fence was once again rushing through his fingers
and into his arm. He crumpled to the ground with a new, yet familiar, scream on
his lips. Luckily, he fell backward, and the weight of his body jerked his hand
away from the fence, breaking the electrical current.
Lying in the snow, his arm shook
violently for several seconds, and Jesus, his heart—it was skipping beats like
a rock skimming a lake. He looked back at the fence. It was just fifteen feet
high, and slouching in parts where the support poles were bent, or in some
cases missing. It was old, a relic of a bygone era. Totally unassuming.
Or so he’d thought.
Somehow, there was now electricity
coursing through it, electricity that hadn’t been there when he’d first scaled
it, just minutes earlier.
Someone had turned on the juice, and
that meant someone was watching him.
When he first parked his car, he’d
counted two fences from the road.
Two fences between him and the
rumored Soviet installation.
No problem, he’d thought. The fences
were falling apart—he could easily climb them. But now here he was, stuck in
between them. Like a rat in a cage.
With his stomach in his throat,
Brody cradled the audio recorder.
Okay, so he’d recorded a sound that
just might change the world, but as several headlights appeared in the road
just beyond the now-electrified fence, as dark silhouettes of bulky Russian men
poured out of the cars and hurried through the snow toward him, he found
himself asking a much more personal question:
Was it also a sound worth dying for?
