A terrorist attack on an American general in Turkey sparks a worldwide manhunt for the most dangerous man alive – a jihadist called Ibrahim. For Special Agent Tom Dupree the race against time to stop the jihadist’s new and devastating plot against the US is not only a desire to protect the homeland, it’s also personal. But Ibrahim is planning an attack the likes of which has not be seen before, one that doesn’t use suicide bombers or conventional weapons.
The second in Gary Haynes’ ‘Tom Dupree’ series, State of Attack is a fast-paced, action-packed thrill ride across four continents. Mixing politics and espionage, State of Attack appears to be lifted from the pages of today’s news. Thrillers don’t get any more realistic or gripping than this.

Writing is a lonely pastime, but to get a book into shape for publication, it becomes a collaborative process. I would like to thank Helen Williams at Harlequin for spotting my potential and for her encouragement and enthusiasm, and my excellent editors Dean Martin, Victoria Oundjian and Lucy Gilmour for their attention to detail and helpful suggestions.
For my three wonderful children, Charlie, Grace and Josh.
