Description
"Quirk has earned his spot in the front ranks of thriller writers." — David Baldacci
An electrifying thriller from the author of The Night Agent now on Netflix, an attack on the White House sends the President and his top aides to take shelter in a top secret government facility buried deep underground—but they soon discover the threat is locked inside with them.
Assume the worst. Code Black.
The day that every secret service agent trains for has arrived. The White House has been breached; the President forced to flee to a massive doomsday bunker outside DC to defend against whatever comes next. Only the most trusted agents and officials are allowed in with him—those dedicated to keeping the government intact at all costs.
Among these is Eric Hill, who has given his life to the Secret Service. They are his purpose and his family, and his impressive record has made him a hero among them. Despite his growing disillusionment from seeing Washington corruption up close, Eric can’t ignore years of instincts honed on the job. The government is under attack, and no one is better equipped to face down the threat than he is.
The evidence leads him to a conspiracy at the highest levels of power, with the attack orchestrated by some of the very individuals now locked in with him. As the killers strike inside the bunker, it will take everything Eric Hill has to save his people, himself, and his country.

Praise for Inside Threat: A Novel
“The breakneck pace never flags, and the interplay between Hill’s world-weary cynicism and Cody’s institutional confidence is a delight. Readers will be eager for a sequel.”
— Publishers Weekly (starred review) on Inside Threat
“A heart-thumping conspiracy that feels like something right out of Vince Flynn or David Baldacci’s playbook....Few writers have shown a better understanding of how to manipulate their words in a way that drives suspense while still engaging the reader, holding their attention, and forcing them to keep turning pages as they race to see how things will play out. And just when you think you have it all figured out, Quirk throws a few surprises in the mix to make sure that even veteran thriller readers won’t predict how this one ends.” — Real Book Spy
