What begins as a routine surveillance operation goes awry when he is ambushed and his partner is captured. Dolan's efforts to save his colleague take him to the jungles of Venezuela where he uncovers a terrifying plot by a shadowy and ruthless organization intent on overthrowing the government and starting a war that could destabilize the entire region.


Death Code: A Michael Dolan Spy Thriller is a spinoff that takes place during the two years that elapse between Evolution and Revelation, books two and three of Casey's The Devolution Trilogy.

LOU EARLE

 A Mac Sisco Novel

Book three of the Mac Sisco Trilogy

    

Pandemics have taken a toll on humanity. By the end of 2021, however, the world was recovering. Innovation ultimately won the day as medical breakthroughs in virus research delivered lifesaving vaccines in record time. But just one year after the Typhon cabal was vanquished by Mac Sisco and Team Apogee, an even more daunting and invisible force is now at work exploiting new realities of human dependency on big tech as they tighten their grip on life’s most essential needs, with sinister consequences for mankind. Once again, Mac and his team are called upon to save the world from those who would destroy it.


"The situations of pulling a political thread to reveal multiple, potentially disastrous events, not knowing whom or what to trust as the web is revealed and untangled, and a race against time are three components in the story that the author handles with consummate skill."

– U.S. Review of Books


 "High-octane action, twists of plot that test characters and lead to questions about what situations they're actually tackling and how they are resolving them, and the intersection of personalities who concurrently address their own ideals, successes, and failures makes for heady thriller reading."

– Midwest Book Review
 

"With twists and turns aplenty, this gripping conclusion delivers a satisfying resolution to the series’ overarching mysteries while keeping readers guessing until the very end."

– The Prairies Book Review
