Patriot: An Alex Hawke Novel
(Adobe EPUB eBook, Kindle Book, OverDrive Read)
Intelligence officer Alex Hawke takes on power-hungry Russian President Vladimir Putin, who is wielding a terrifying new weapon, in the latest adrenaline-fueled thriller in Ted Bell's New York Times bestselling series.
In corrupt Russia, an erratic Vladimir Putin is determined to forge his country into a formidable superpower once again. He intends to redraw the map of Europe, and will go to impossible extremes to realize his fantasies—including shooting down a civilian airliner packed with tourists bound for China. Kremlin scientists have developed a radical new weapon that could forever alter modern warfare. NATO, locked in a tense standoff over Ukraine, Poland, and Estonia, knows Putin will not hesitate to use it. But there is one man who can bring the world back from the brink: Britain's foremost intelligence asset, Lord Alexander Hawke.
The intrepid MI6 officer's latest challenge begins in the Gulf of Aden and soon has him searching for the link to a series of bizarre assassinations. Spies are dying all over the world—from London, Washington, D.C., and Maine, to Moscow, and even the glittering Cote d'Azur. In the murky world of counterterrorism and high-stakes intrigue, the odds have never been higher. Once again, Alex Hawke must save the world . . . one bullet at a time.

"A rip-roaring thriller... Fans of Ian Fleming's novels will love Hawke... Loaded with action... this adventure is a great escape." — Kirkus Reviews (starred review) on Patriot
"A compelling thriller . . . Readers who enjoy their spy fiction in which the world seems to be teetering on its axis have another author to add to their reading lists." — Booklist on Patriot
"Better than any writer in the thriller genre, Bell mashes up old-fashioned boys' adventures with modern military action." — Publishers Weekly on Patriot
"Lord Alex Hawke is back, and better than ever. . . . Loaded with action and terrific characters, this story allows readers an escape from real life, while they take a wild ride with 'Hawke & Company.'" — Suspense Magazine
"Ted Bell's PATRIOT is the ninth in his Alex Hawke series - and the only one I've read - but it felt like a perfect entry point, and I enjoyed the high-octane ride enough that I'll seek out some of the earlier installments... [It's] a polar vortex of storytelling." — New York Times Book Review

A secret mission in Cuba goes awry in the prologue of bestseller Bell’s fast-paced ninth Alexander Hawke thriller (after 2014’s Warriors), but the MI6 agent (and sixth richest man in England) and his pal Stokely Jones, a former Navy SEAL, manage to fight their way to safety. Soon Hawke is back in his Bermuda home, Teakettle Cottage, enjoying his favorite libation, Gosling’s rum. Meanwhile, Brett “Beau” Beauregard, a retired U.S. Army colonel who runs a private security company, orders his minions to target agents he believes have wronged him in the past. One of Beauregard’s men goes after Hawke in Bermuda, and the ensuing battle nearly destroys Teakettle Cottage. Vladimir Putin, who saved Hawke’s life in an earlier book, plays a role that ricochets back and forth between friend and foe. The villain who runs down the CIA director’s pet dog gets her just reward. Better than any writer in the thriller genre, Bell mashes up old-fashioned boys’ adventure with modern military action. Agent: Peter Lampack, Peter Lampack Agency.

Even as spies are being assassinated worldwide, from London to Maine to the Cote d'Azur, NATO and Russia are squaring off over the fate of Ukraine, Poland, and Estonia, and everyone west of Moscow is worrying that the Russians will haul out some game-changing new weapons that Kremlin scientists have reportedly developed. Thank goodness legendary MI6 officer Lord Alexander Hawke is on the case. A follow-up to Warriors.

The latest in Bell's series featuring MI6 intelligence officer Alex Hawke quickly gets personal. Someone has targeted spies and former allies and friends of Hawke for extermination. Hawke quickly realizes that the deadly assassin is someone he should have eliminated a long time ago. Getting rid of the man known in the business as Spider, however, is only the tip of the iceberg that threatens Hawke and everyone he loves. The conspiracy set against him, he realizes, reaches all the way to Russian president Vladimir Putin, making the odds of survival quite slim. Multiple killers and plots, mixed with the personal ramifications for our intrepid hero, make this a compelling thriller. Some may find the narrative a bit overlong, but, finally, the power of the story holds up just fine, even over 544 pages. Readers who enjoy their spy fiction in which the world seems to be teetering on its axis have another author to add to their reading lists.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2015, American Library Association.)
