From New York Times bestselling author Raymond Khoury comes a blistering new Reilly & Tess thriller, published exclusively as a Kindle ebook. TO AVENGE HIS PAST, HE HAS TO RISK HIS FUTURE While tracking down the men behind a DarkNet marketplace where everything, even murder, is available for barter, FBI Special Agent Sean Reilly crosses paths with a man who claims to know the truth about the death of Reilly’s father, back when Reilly was ten. A death that had been considered a suicide—until now. In chasing after the potentially devastating revelations about that hidden past, Reilly awakens other dormant monsters—a cabal of assassins whose unusual methods have escaped detection for decades, whose victims have spanned continents, and whose leaders would rather remain hidden in the shadows. At any cost. Watched, manipulated, and framed for crimes he didn't commit, Reilly becomes a fugitive, making it next to impossible for him to uncover the truth while protecting his family. He's left with no choice but to risk everything to unearth secrets that would shake the country to its core—if he were ever allowed to get that far. Read THE END GAME and dive into Reilly’s most personal—and most dangerous—story yet. “History, mystery, suspense, and action—Khoury knows the recipe for a good read.”
—Library Journal “A world-class writer of pure-bred thrillers.”
—The Telegraph “Khoury’s thrillers engage the reader’s mind, even as they move at a breakneck pace.”

Review

"History, mystery, suspense, and action--Khoury knows the recipe for a good read."
--Library Journal on Rasputin's Shadow "A fast-paced thrill-ride... a fine thriller to start the new year with."
--Booklist on The Devil's Elixir "A world-class writer of pure-bred thrillers ... [joins] Connelly, Child, Crais & Co at the top table-a feat this achieves with aplomb."
--The Telegraph (UK) on The Devil's Elixir "Vivid, energetic scenes ensure that Khoury's tale never falters or bores. It's the sort of novel that could make a colorful movie, but meanwhile, enjoy the book."
--Kirkus Reviews on The Devil's Elixir "Sublime narrative ... a full-throttle action-adventure thriller wrapped in a political cautionary tale with a gratifyingly eloquent center."
--Library Journal on The Templar Salvation "A thoughtful book with a powerful message and yet also a thrilling read with compelling, well-developed characters. Highly recommended."
--Library Journal on The Sign "Khoury's thrillers engage the reader's mind, even as they move at a breakneck pace. Readers who like their thrillers to have a solid intellectual component will enjoy Khoury's books very much. Given the high quality of each of his novels, it seems fair to say that he may be around for a while."
--Booklist on The Sign (Starred Review) "This story captivates with plausibility and imagination. It's fiercely intelligent and equally curious. [Khoury] has an intense brand of storytelling all his own. The Sign is a prize to be savored." 
--Steve Berry, bestselling author of The 14th Colony, on The Sign "A pulse-pounding thriller that spans continents in pursuit of an audacious if implausible hi-tech conspiracy to reshape the global balance of power, told in 85 punchy chapters, which cries out Hollywood blockbuster."
--The Telegraph (UK) on The Sign "Maybe the most ambitious fictional work of 2007... enough adventure, excitement and speculation to fill three books."
--Joe Hartlaub, Bookreporter.com on The Sanctuary "Khoury makes the conspiracy feel utterly believable and imbues his characters with infectious passion for finding the truth. A surefire hit with fans of conspiracy-based historical thrillers."
--Booklist on The Sanctuary "Remember the impact of The Last Templar? Well, here we go again. More dual time (1750 and 2003), this explores the secret of human longevity. Terrific Stuff."
--Bookseller Magazine on The Sanctuary "Fans of Dan Brown's Da Vinci Code who are searching for another outstanding historical thriller need look no further than Raymond Khoury's spectacular debut novel ... An insanely fast paced thriller that includes breathtaking twists and jaw-dropping bombshells on practically every page, Khoury's conspiracy-laden debut -- a blend of historical fiction, suspense, romance, and wild religious speculation -- will open up a can of existential worms that will be all but impossible to close ... The highly volatile subject matter discussed within The Last Templar will spark endless hours of heated debate -- and the conclusion (oh, the brilliant conclusion!) will leave readers absolutely dumbstruck."
--Paul G Allen, Barnes & Noble Editor on The Last Templar "Any reader encountering The Last Templar will want 1) a film version, and 2) more novels from Khoury, not necessarily in that order. Recommended."
--Joe Hartlaub, Bookreporter.com on The Last Templar

A remote shelf in the Arctic circle. A small TV crew is braving the harsh conditions to film the breaking off of a major ice shelf - yet another nail in the planet's eco-coffin. Then someone calls out, pointing at something up in the sky overhead. The camera pans up and they look up to see a blazing symbol clear, burning high over the bleak, deserted terrain. Thus begins a series of strange events worldwide as the mysterious sign appears over the sites of conflict, natural disasters and terrorist atrocities. What can it portend? The world is wracked with both fear and hope. Suddenly, all this is focussed onto one man. An obscure monk who recognises the symbol from the past and understands what it means for the future of humanity. But as he becomes the most sought-after man on the planet, the questions have to be asked: could this be the real deal? Or the most elaborate fake in world history? And - either way - what happens to the world now?]]> Fri, 30 Oct 2009 21:47:49 +0200 The Devil's Elixir https://www.bookfrom.net/raymond-khoury/59995-the_devils_elixir.html https://www.bookfrom.net/raymond-khoury/59995-the_devils_elixir.html The Devil's Elixir

This short story from the anthology FaceOff pairs Raymond Khoury and Linwood Barclay—and features characters from their bestselling novels—in a one-of-a-kind thriller matchup.
FBI Agent Sean Reilly (hero of Khoury’s five-million-copy bestseller The Last Templar) is tracking a criminal who is in possession of a lethal biological agent and threatening to unleash it on innocent civilians. But now Reilly has a bigger problem: his quarry, known online as Faustus, has created an explosive diversion and stolen a truck from a restaurant parking lot—and inside that truck is a teenage girl.

General contractor and single dad Glen Garber (of Barclay’s 2011 bestseller The Accident) had stopped to grab a snack for his daughter Kelly when they both got caught up in the chaos in the parking lot. Thinking she’d be safest in the truck, he ordered her inside, and that was the last time he saw her.
