The Hunted

by Alan Jacobson

Published 26 February 2001
From a national bestselling author: "A classic cat-and-mouse with enough twists to enthrall even the most veteran thriller reader" (David Baldacci).

How well do you really know the person you love? How far would you go to find out?

If there were one person in the world Dr. Lauren Chambers was sure she could rely on, it was her husband, Michael. Slowly recovering from an agoraphobic depression and still prone to episodes of blinding anxiety, the gifted psychologist has depended on his love and support. So when Michael suddenly and mysteriously vanishes, Lauren once again finds herself balancing on a knife's edge of paranoia.

Is there more to it than paranoia, though? Private investigator Nick Bradley believes so. As the pair takes off on a cross-country journey in search of answers-a search that yields a series of unsettling truths about the husband Lauren believed she knew so well-bestselling author Alan Jacobson sets in motion a page-turning tale of concealed identities, an assassin's vendetta, and murderous revenge.

A master of the shocking twist and the ingenious turn, Jacobson builds an exhilarating road thriller filled with hairpin turns and unexpected detours as Lauren heads for a face-off with the most dangerous secret of all: the truth. From the author of False Accusations and The Lost Codex, this is "a book that is impossible to put down" (Library Journal).

Book 3

The Lost Codex

by Alan Jacobson

Published 3 November 2015
In this "brilliant" thriller from the USA Today-bestselling author, ancient biblical documents are at the center of a devastating terrorist threat (Jeffery Deaver).

In 930 CE, a revered group of scholars pens the first sanctioned Bible, planting the seed from which other major religions will grow. But in 1953, half the manuscript goes missing while being transported from Syria. Around the same time, in the foothills of the Dead Sea, an ancient scroll is discovered-and promptly stolen.

Six decades later, both parchments stand at the heart of a geopolitical battle between foreign governments and radical extremists, threatening the lives of millions. With the American homeland under siege, the president turns to a team of uniquely trained covert operatives including FBI profiler Karen Vail, Special Forces veteran Hector DeSantos, and FBI terrorism expert Aaron Uziel. Their mission: Find the stolen documents and capture-or kill-those responsible for unleashing a coordinated and unprecedented terrorist attack on US soil.

Set in DC, New York, Paris, England, and Israel, The Lost Codex has been hailed by Douglas Preston as "a masterwork of international suspense" and "an outstanding novel."


Dark Side of the Moon

by Alan Jacobson

Published 19 June 2018
The OPSIG team must literally leave Earth to save it in this "thriller ride of a lifetime" from the USA Today-bestselling author of The Lost Codex (Gayle Lynds).

In 1972, Apollo 17 returned to Earth with two hundred pounds of rock--as well as something far more dangerous than they could have imagined. For decades, the military concealed the crew's mysterious discovery. But now a NASA contractor has leaked the intel to conspiring foreign powers, putting in their hands the most powerful weapon of mass destruction yet created.

While FBI profiler Karen Vail and OPSIG Team Black colleague Alexandra Rusakov try to root out the NASA mole and break up the spy ring, covert operatives Hector DeSantos and Aaron Uziel prepare for a mission beyond anything they've ever attempted--a spaceflight to the moon itself--to avert a war that could not only disrupt the global balance of power, but also end in catastrophic annihilation . . .

Dark Side of the Moon is the 4th book in the OPSIG Team Black series, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.
