King Maker an action thriller

KING MAKER'S (Jack Kincaid Thriller Series Book 12)

How do you stop an assassin who kills with bad luck?

Jack Kincaid, the cynical ex-operative, is finally embracing retirement on his boat, the Sea Witch. But the shadowy world he left behind isn't done with him. He's pulled back into the fray by a desperate plea from the campaign manager of Senator Marcus Thorne, a charismatic, independent presidential candidate who is surging in the polls and making powerful enemies.

The problem: Thorne is a magnet for tragedy. A series of bizarre, near-fatal "accidents"—catastrophic brake failures, sudden engine seizures, freak gas leaks—have plagued his campaign. The Secret Service is stumped, seeing only a string of statistical improbabilities. But Kincaid, hired to look at the shadows the official investigation ignores, recognizes the chillingly professional signature of a ghost-like assassin known only as "The Actuary."

Going undercover as a jaded journalist on the campaign trail, Kincaid must hunt a killer who leaves no evidence, no witnesses—only plausible deniability and a trail of perfectly executed "bad luck." He quickly confirms the attacks are orchestrated by the global Ouroboros syndicate, but their motive is far more insidious than simple murder.

As Kincaid foils one "accident" after another, he uncovers the terrifying truth behind KING MAKER'S . Ouroboros doesn't want to kill the candidate; they want to own him. By creating the very threats they can later save him from, they plan to install their own controlled asset in the White House, a king indebted to the shadows that crowned him. Caught in a web of political intrigue and sophisticated terror, Kincaid must outwit an assassin who weaponizes probability and expose a conspiracy designed to seize the ultimate power.

King Maker is the twelfth explosive novel in the Jack Kincaid spy thriller series. In a style that blends the atmospheric grit of John D. MacDonald with the sharp dialogue and character-driven tension of Elmore Leonard, this political thriller delivers a high-stakes story of espionage and manipulation. A must-read for fans of complex conspiracy thrillers, non-stop action adventure, and suspense that will keep you guessing until the final, shocking page.
