Macavity Award (2012)
Left for dead after an epic shootout that blew the lid off a billion-dollar conspiracy, ex-cop Charlie Hardie quickly realizes that when you're dealing with The Accident People, things can get worse. Drugged, bound and transported by strange operatives of unknown origin, Hardie awakens to find himself captive in a secret prison that houses the most dangerous criminals on earth.
And then things getreallybad. Because this isn't just any prison. It's a Kafkaesque nightmare that comes springloaded with a brutal catch-22: Hardie's the warden. And any attempt to escape triggers a "death mechanism" that will kill everyone down here--including a group of innocent guards. Faced with an unworkable paradox, and knowing that his wife and son could be next on the Accident People's hit list, Hardie has only one choice: fight his way to the heart of this hell hole and make a deal with the Devil himself.

Recenzii
"Charlie's
internal
voice
is
fun
to
follow
and
the
action
sequences
are
killer.
I
could
easily
see
these
books
as
a
major
summer
blockbuster...
the
book
goes
from
action
to
action,
rarely
stopping
to
catch
a
breath
and
I
stayed
up
late
one
night
turning
the
pages
to
the
end...If
non-stop,
cool
action
sequences
with
fun
characters
are
your
thing,
you
need
to
read
some
Swierczynski
