Standstill (Jake Tanner #1)
by Jack Probyn
In the oppressive London summer heat, two brothers orchestrate the deadliest terror attack the city has ever seen. Three airport-bound trains are brought to a standstill with thousands held hostage. And when the dust settles, the Metropolitan Police are left scrambling for solutions.
The terrorists promise to let hostages go, but first Detective Jake Tanner must play his part in their twisted games. The rules are simple--follow them, and no one gets hurt. Break them, and the consequences will be fatal. But when he discovers the identity of one of the passengers, Jake realises this isn’t just about saving hostages.
Battling a faceless figure who’s appointed himself God, Jake must save the passengers before the city descends into utter mayhem.
But how far will he go? Will he save everyone in time? And will he like the chilling truth he learns along the way?
Standstill is the first book in the pulsating Jake Tanner terror series. If you like gut-wrenching, nauseatingly-suspenseful, edge-of-your-seat thrill rides that'll leave you begging for sleep, you'll love this.
