"Pure adrenaline rush...an action-packed novel brimming with complex characters as well as genuine heart. Not to be missed." (Lisa Gardner). "Patrick Lee is in a word: Brilliant. Less a novel, than an adventure, it left me breathless and awed. It's explosive, innovative and ultimately mind-blowing. Pure exhilaration from the first page to the last." (James Rollins). "An amazing, high speed, hi-octane novel than moves faster than most people can read. Rarely is a story both plot driven and character driven, but Runner does this and more." (Nelson DeMille). "I'm going to sue Patrick Lee for giving me whiplash: that's how furiously paced this book is. A terrific cast of characters, unrelenting action - strap in and enjoy the ride." (Jesse Kellerman). "A thriller done right. It literally begs to be read in one sitting...Patrick Lee is the real deal." (Steve Berry). "WOW! Double Wow! Starkly original...mind-blowing." (Stephen Coonts). Patrick Lee lives in Hudsonville, Michigan. He is the author of four previous novels: The Breach (a New York Timesbestseller), Ghost Country, Deep Sky and Runner.
