Shadow Strike: A Pike Logan Novel

New York Times bestselling author and former special forces officer Brad Taylor is back with a dynamic political thriller featuring Pike Logan as he goes head-to-head with an old enemy-and renowned assassin.

After its proxies are devastated and its offensive capability pummeled in the latest war in the middle east, a rogue group of Iranian regime officials create a brazen plot to strike back at their hated enemies once and for all. They envision a series of operational dominos culminating in a devastating attack, and the first step is the assassination of the Israeli prime minister. And there's only one assassin with the skills to pull it off: Abdul Rahman, known in the shadows as the Ghost.

When a routine prison transfer is ambushed, the Ghost escapes and is given the assignment. The only Operator who can hunt him down is the man who stopped him before: Pike Logan.

Pike and his team soon learn that the mission involves something bigger than just the escape of his old enemy. Working with Mossad agents, the pursuit leads the Taskforce to Argentina. They work to unravel the scope of the attack, and the chase leads them through the tempestuous waterfalls of Iguazu and the Triple Frontier, to the vibrant streets of Buenos Aires, and the tiny village of Ushuaia at the “End of the World”.

As the team races against the clock, Pike learns the stakes are much greater than a single life - the consequences extend into the heartland of America itself. The Ghost may hold the key to an escalation that will upend the worldwide balance of power, and if Pike fails, the fallout won't just be personal - it'll be global.

Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

"Brad Taylor’s writing is as brilliant as it is consistent, and his newest offering, Into the Gray Zone, is authentic, action-packed, and utterly relentless. A knockout punch of a novel, this latest installment of the Pike Logan saga is not to be missed." — Mark Greaney #1 New York Times Bestselling Author of Midnight Black, a Gray Man novel


"Non-stop action, wall-to-wall intrigue, and some of the best damn cliffhangers you will ever read. Brad Taylor absolutely crushes it!" — Brad Thor, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Shadow of Doubt, on Into the Gray Zone


“Always a fan of Brad Taylor, I must say his latest thrill ride, Into the Gray Zone, justifies why everyone should be reading Pike Logan’s adventures. Diligent spycraft, throat-clutching suspense, and military action that rips straight off the page. And this outing shows how political gamesmanship operates deep in the shadows, where nothing is black and white, only shades of gray. Don’t miss this latest blockbuster—or any of the others!" — James Rollins, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Arkangel


“Taylor is one of today’s premiere authors writing about the world of special ops.” — Associated Press


“Brad Taylor knows his stuff.” — Nelson DeMille


“Taylor is now laying claim to being the American John le Carre.” — Providence Journal


“Fresh plot, great action, and Taylor clearly knows what he is writing about. . . . When it comes to tactics and hardware, he is spot-on.” — Vince Flynn on All Necessary Force
