JK's Code

by Ronald S. Barak

Overview

JK'S CODE

CAN YOU UNRAVEL IT . . . BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE?

Twenty-year-old computer genius Jake Klein, known to his friends as JK, drops out of college to pursue fortune and fame in the field of cybersecurity. Discovering and upending a conspiracy between the presidents of Russia and America to manipulate the results of the 2020 U.S. presidential election, JK finds himself in a deadly game of cat and mouse with the heads of state of two of the world's most powerful countries-with the emphasis on deadly. Revealing the truth to the world definitely comes with a price. The fourth in the bestselling Brooks/Lotello novels, JK's Code is a political thriller teeming with real-time events, satire, suspense, and just a hint of romance that couldn't come any closer to the realities of 2020 if JK were covertly dividing his time between the White House and the Kremlin-which he may just be.

Editorial Reviews

JK's Code is tense, timely and terrific!

-Lee Child, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Jack Reacher novels

Keen research and high-tech suspense drives Ronald. S. Barak's new thriller, JK's Code; an incredibly timely political thriller about election fraud and the technology behind it, you'll wonder where reality ends and the fiction begins.

-Brad Meltzer, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Escape Artist

­ If you blended Dan Brown's conspiratorial storytelling with Brad Meltzer's political potboiler, you might end up with Ronald S. Barak's JK's Code-but the novel is all its own. Both chillingly topical and as fast as an Indy racer on ice, treat yourself to this thrill ride of a mystery.

-James Rollins, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Last Odyssey

Smart, speedy, and suspenseful, JK's Code is a flat out great read. My favorite kind of book: characters you care about, a story ripped from the headlines, and a pace that doesn't let up. The definition of a thriller!

-Christopher Reich, New York Times bestselling author of the Simon Riske novels

JK's Code is this generation's acclaimed and influential War Games. Ronald S. Barak's prescient, perfectly timed, and polished thriller takes current events and somehow makes them even more terrifying than they already are. Chillingly on point in its message and stunningly effective in its execution, JK's Code is superb reading entertainment layered atop a cautionary tale. Politics is no fun at all these days, unless Ron Barak is writing about it, and this is a political thriller extraordinaire.

-Jon Land, USA Today bestselling author of the Caitlin Strong series

Ronald S. Barak's JK's Code is both timely and timeless, and did I mention...terrific? Timely because election fraud is the heart of the story. Timeless because it's a classic thriller laced with suspense and intrigue. Terrific because it brings back Judge Cyrus Brooks, homicide detective Frank Lotello and attorney Leah Klein, to aid Leah's tech-savvy kid brother, JK, who uncovers a chilling conspiracy between the Kremlin and the White House, only to find himself in dire straits. If the raucous runup to the actual 2020 presidential election has been driving you to drink, JK's Code will be your perfect nightcap.

-Paul Levine, #1 Amazon bestselling author of the Jake Lassiter series

The Brooks/Lotello thriller novels are immediately likeable and pack a bone-jarring punch. In JK's Code, an unparalleled real-time election fraud political thriller, JK's Code, an unparalleled real-time political thriller, Barak swings for the fences and knocks it out of the park.

-Barry Lancet, award-winning author of The Spy Across the Table
