A booky health warning should be stamped on this cover… once you start you won’t want to stop! I read right through to 03:30am, until I had devoured every single and absolutely wonderful last drop. Hayley Chill, ex-military and champion boxer, is a new West Wing intern in the White House. When she finds the body of the Chief of Staff, she also finds a clue that it wasn’t the reported heart attack, and everything now points to an assassination plot on the president. The first few pages really sum up Hayley Chill, she is courageous, honourable, and can kick some serious ass. In other words, she is someone you would most definitely want on your side. Chris Hauty has the ability to highlight a life in just a few sentences, adding to the vivid overall picture in my mind. Deep State is a fast-moving, full-on adrenaline hit. Please, please tell me that this is the start of a new series, because I want more! Chosen as a Liz Robinson pick of the month and LoveReading Star Book, because Deep State really is that addictive.
THE INSTANT NATIONAL BESTSELLER "One of the more surprising double-reverse plot twists...in some time." --The New York Times In this "propulsive, page-turning, compelling, fragmentation grenade of a debut thriller" (C.J. Box, #1 New York Times bestselling author), a deadly plot against the president's life emerges from the shadows of the Deep State. Recently elected President Richard Monroe--populist, controversial, and divisive--is at the center of an increasingly polarized Washington, DC. Never has the partisan drama been so tense or the paranoia so rampant. In the midst of contentious political turf wars, the White House chief of staff is found dead in his house and West Wing intern and ex-Army grunt Hayley Chill is positive that it's not from natural causes. Determined to find the truth, Hayley uncovers shocking evidence that a wide-ranging conspiracy is running beneath the surface of DC in an effort to undermine the rule of law--and democracy itself. Soon, Hayley is in a race against time to reveal the truth and save the life of the next victim: the president. "Deep State rings eerily true [and] will keep you turning pages well into the night" (Jack Carr, former Navy SEAL and author of The Terminal List).
