A high profile kidnapping, a breach of security, an unthinkable scheme.

First Lady Anna Darmond has been kidnapped after a bloody gunfight, an unthinkable crime that, if revealed, could cause widespread panic. As a result, hostage rescue specialist Jonathan Grave and his team must operate in absolute secrecy.

But the mission is not all it seems. There are dark shadows in Mrs. Darmond's past; cracks in the presidential marriage; leaks in the country's critical shields of security.

As Grave tracks the First Lady through a labyrinth of lies and murder, he must confront a traitor in the highest echelon of Washington power - and a devastating plan to bring a nation to its knees.

Fifth in the Jonathan Grave series, High Treason is a tour de force, perfect for fans of James Deegan, Lee Child and Andy McNab.
