Publisher Description
Kendig Ratchets Up the Action in Her New Suspense Series!
Four years after a tragic mission decimated his career and his team, Cole "Tox" Russell is persona non grata to the United States. And that's fine--he just wants to be left alone. But when a dormant, centuries-old disease is unleashed, Tox is lured back into action.
Partnered with FBI agent Kasey Cortes, Tox has to pull together a team to begin a globe-spanning search for answers--and a cure. As their quest leads them from continent to continent, it slowly becomes clear they're not just fighting a plague--but battling against an ancient secret society whose true goals remain hidden.
With time running out and opposition growing on every side, the key to everything may rest in an antique codex, the Crown of Jerusalem--but will Tox and his team be able to trust each other enough to break this century-spanning conspiracy of silence?
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Prolific military suspense author Kendig (Operation Zulu Redemption) is at the top of her game as she introduces Cole "Tox" Russell and his paramilitary adventures in this opening book of her Tox Files series. Former Special Forces soldier Tox and his team of operatives must cross the globe in search of the cure of an ancient plague, which appears to have been unleashed from an excavation in Israel. Joining Tox is FBI agent Kasey Cortes, an old friend with an old crush. Navigating their reconnection proves as challenging as the mystery of the elusive secret society they seek to discover a group willing to let a worldwide disease spread in order to maintain their power, which is wrapped up in an ancient biblical text called Aleppo Codex. Kendig keeps the tensions high and the pace lightning fast, with military action scenes worthy of Vince Flynn. Especially noteworthy is watching the character development of elite modern warriors forced to confront and accept ancient history, faith, and supernatural power. Kendig fans will love this opening novel in her new series.
Customer Reviews
If you love Indiana Jones meets Jason Bourne...you will love Kendig
Kendig delivers every time...Mystery, action, Special Forces, archaeology, romance...what a read!
I always know Kendig will catch me and keep me enthralled through the entire book. Conspiracy of Silence met every expectation. It had military suspense, Jason Bourne style, meets Indiana Jones, archaeology mystery, with a touch of romance. It took me to different parts of the world and made history come alive. It's important to read the prequel "The Warrior's Seal" to gain more of an understanding of this book. It is a quick, action-packed read and really brings this book to life.
Special Forces, Cole "Tox" Russell is pulled back into action after a tragic mission went wrong. Kasey Cortez steps in as an FBI deception expert and Tzivia Khalon is the archaeologist needed to find answers and a cure for a potentially worldwide epidemic. Can they work together and fast enough to stop this plague?
Jason Bourne meets Indiana Jones in this military, history comes to life novel. Archaeology meets modern-day world in this race to figure out a conspiracy of silence that could end the world.
I'm not giving anything away, but this is excellent for male & female readers!
Action-packed!
Deadly plague, secret societies, Jewish history, just the right amount of romance...you'll find this and so much more in the newest installment of the Tox files by Ronie Kendig.
Cole "Tox" Russell and his team has been tasked with stopping a deadly plague from spreading. This task takes them around the world as they search for clues and race against the clock. You will be hooked from the very beginning.
In addition to the action that I have come to appreciate in Ms. Kendig's novels, she was able to incorporate a good bit of Jewish history in the midst of the story.
As a wife of a retired Marine, I have always loved and appreciated military novels by Ronie Kendig. Her characters are always believable and well-developed. She definitely knows how to capture the spirit of our true heroes.
Although this book could be read as a stand alone, I would definitely recommend reading The Warrior's Seal first. This novella gives you the backstory and will help you understand the storyline and characters in Conspiracy of Silence.
I was provided a copy of this book by the publisher. All opinions in this review are my own.
