    The young Ben Clayton was one of Britain's brightest boxing prospects, until the day he slammed a left hook into a fragile chin. Sickened by the consequences he turned away from the ring, found solace in the arms of the beautiful Lucy Kirk and looked for new challenges. On the 7th March 1936, after almost two decades of peace in Europe, Hitler ordered the German Army back into the Rhineland. It was a direct challenge to Britain and France. Still unnerved by the toll of the Great War, the politicians dithered. The French Army stayed in its barracks, while the aristocratic British elite looked on from their country retreats. History teetered on a knife edge, but the spymasters were busy. Just one man could make the difference between war and peace, victory or defeat. And that man was Ben Clayton. Thrown into the maelstrom of plot and counter-plot, into a world of murder, spies and traitors, Ben must battle not just to survive, but to protect all that he loves and holds most dear.

    How many lives will you sacrifice to save the one you love? Drug baron Janac has turned to piracy to fund his battle for control of the Australian narcotics trade. When he attacks the MV Shawould on an evil night in the South China Sea, it seems he has also found the perfect victim for his psychotic games. Phil Hamnet and his wife Anna are sharing a last voyage on the Shawould before the arrival of their twins. Hamnet escapes Janac's attack, but Anna is taken and held hostage to ensure first his silence and then his cooperation. But when Janac's rogue ex-Special Forces crew attack more ships and men start dying, Hamnet has to decide if he can continue to sacrifice the lives of unknown sailors to save the woman he loves. It's an awful decision for anyone to have to make, but for a man who's already had the same dilemma - in a lifeboat, adrift in the vastness of the Pacific Ocean - it's a living nightmare. Janac's first appearance was in the suspense thriller The Defector - a #1 Thriller on Amazon.co.uk and Amazon.de. This is what people said about the HarperCollins paperback edition: A real ripping yarn... begging to be made into an all-action film.' Qantas in-flight magazine It's a great escapist yarn with Janac a really nasty villain who gives Hamnet untold grief. I enjoyed this one.' Hawkes Bay Today 'I found it impossible to put down.'

    If Dragon Tattoo's Mikael Blomkvist and the Hunger Games' Katniss Everdeen could have a love-child, she'd probably be a lot like Sam Blackett... Sam had given up her Manhattan job, and her cute apartment in Brooklyn. She'd abandoned her astonished boyfriend to the charms of ESPN, and flown off into a new dawn to chase her dream of becoming an investigative journalist. Three months later, alone in a soulless internet café, she's facing some cold, hard facts; she's unpublished, unhappy and broke. And right then, the gorgeous Pete Halland blows into her life - headed for the mythical Powder Burn mountain to write history and blast into legend. If she throws in her lot with Pete and reports the story for National Geographic magazine it could rescue her dreams, but he's holding back some crucial information - the question for Sam is... what? Soon, Sam is up to her neck in snow and the weather is the least of her problems; lost in a secretive Himalayan kingdom with - what could be - a magic sword and a simmering and potentially bloody revolution. But the father she lost to the war in Iraq was a marine, and he taught her a few tricks in the Vermont backcountry that might just get her out alive - and with a story to tell that could make the front page of the New York Times. Try the sample with 'Look Inside'! Powder Burn is the first of a new series featuring Sam Blackett from the author of the best-selling Janac's Games books. Chinese Burn will be published in the spring of 2014. Mark Chisnell's thrillers have topped the Amazon charts around the world. Reviews for Powder Burn 'Highly recommended... unique read' eThriller.com 'Nail-biting action, a twisting plot and a fiesty heroine, Powder Burn is a page-turning thriller that is almost impossible to put down. The first in a new series, I'm not sure how Chisnell is going to top this one! Highly recommend!' Minding Spot 'Chisnell is a favorite of mine and Powder Burn delivers his usual well-researched, fascinating, and fast-packed thriller novel.' Nina Sankovitch, readallday.com 'A great start to the series.' Big Al's Books and Pals
