Countdown by James Patterson is a heart-stopping thriller perfect for fans of Ian Rankin and Patricia Cornwell. Intelligence officer Amy Cornwall must prove she exists before time runs out.

An undercover CIA officer has seven days to save her country from the world's most dangerous double-agent. The CIA's highly classified Special Activities Division is in the business of tracking people down and keeping secrets hidden. Then a botched field operation reveals dark dealings between an officer's superiors and an informant, leading to a plot that could kill thousands of Americans.

Knowing that her leadership is corrupt to the core, intelligence officer Amy Cornwall is forced to give up her identity and work from the shadows. But it is not easy staying hidden when your enemies are elite intelligence operatives. Will she get the truth out into the light before losing her identity, her history, her family?

The countdown has already begun.
