Open Chains

Fifteen murdered. Seven witnesses. One by one they fall. In the realm of contemporary noir, there are writers, and then there are those who "Write like D. F. Bailey."As Will Finch adds the finishing touches to his new book, Eve Noon embarks on a treacherous journey to join him at a remote island hideaway. Unknown to her, a malevolent force shadows her every step, weaving a web of menace that will shatter their lives. The night Eve arrives at Finch's isolated seaside cottage, the nightmare begins. A haunted Iraq war veteran knocks on their door, his eyes filled with dread as he utters a dire warning: "There's trouble coming at us. All of us." Finch brushes off the stranger's plea, but soon realizes that they are entangled in a desperate game with a man they call Nine. From the blood-soaked battlefields of Iraq to the dimly lit dive bars of San Francisco, and onward to the secretive lairs of a tech genius in Seattle, Open Chains hurtles forward like an unstoppable force. Its relentless momentum will carry you through the corridors of power to the cabinet of the President of the United States. Get ready for a rollercoaster ride of fear, betrayal, and revelation that will leave you gasping for breath, and make you question the darkness that lurks beneath the surface of the world we know. Once you're caught in Open Chains, there's no escaping the chilling truth that awaits.
