Description

“One of the best thrillers I have read this year. The plot is intelligent and will keep you hooked from the beginning. The author did a superb job creating a set of characters who are fully developed and very much enjoyable. I can hardly wait for the sequel.” --Books and Movie Reviews, Roberto Mattos (re Any Means Necessary)

When nuclear waste is stolen by jihadists in the middle of the night from an unguarded New York City hospital, the police, in a frantic race against time, call in the FBI. Luke Stone, head of an elite, secretive, department within the FBI, is the only man they can turn to. Luke realizes right away that the terrorists’ aim is to create a dirty bomb, that they seek a high-value target, and that they will hit it within 48 hours.

A cat and mouse chase follows, pitting the world’s most savvy government agents versus its most sophisticated terrorists. As Agent Stone peels back layer after layer, he soon realizes he is up against a vast conspiracy, and that the target is even more high value than he could have imagined—leading all the way to the President of the United States.

With Luke framed for the crime, his team threatened and his own family in danger, the stakes could not be higher. But as a former special forces commando, Luke has been in tough positions before, and he will not give up until he finds a way to stop them—using any means necessary.

Twist follows twist as one man finds himself up against an army of obstacles and conspiracies, pushing even the limits of what he can handle, and culminating in a shocking climax.

A political thriller with heart-pounding action, dramatic international settings, and non-stop suspense, ANY MEANS NECESSARY marks the debut of an explosive new series that will leave you turning pages late into the night.

Book #2 in the Luke Stone series is also now available!

    Could be a good book, but the bait and switch to force one to continue to buy more books ruin the whole premise. When I buy a book (more than 3/week), I want the whole story! Real sad! Never know the end of the story! TKS. DC
  • By any means

    I just wanted to read one book and then go to another one. What’s wrong with finishing one story and then going to the next one??? You’re a great writer and I certainly liked the book, but good grief??
  • Thank you

    Great book! One of the very best of this thriller military/spy genre. The multiple plots are believable, strong and unfold at a hart-pounding pace. Don’t miss it!

    This is the last of Jack Mars’ series that I’m reading to get caught up on all of his writing. They’re all very good but this blows them all away! If someone doesn’t option this for a movie…they should because this has everything. Action, intelligent plot twists, intrigue, humor…did I mention action?! I cannot wait to finish this series!
  • Interesting from the beginning
