The critically acclaimed, internationally bestselling Tom Marlowe series returns!

"You're nothing more than a living NFT, Thomas -- and I intend to make a literal killing from you!"

When ex-MI5 agent Tom Marlowe wakes to find a ten-million dollar bounty on his head, London erupts into chaos. His nemesis, St John Steele, has turned the city into a battleground, unleashing elite assassins in a twisted contest where every failed kill slashes the prize money in half. The longer Marlowe survives, the less he’s worth—forcing killers to act fast before the reward vanishes.

But the bounty is just the bait. Steele’s real game is MARLOWE, a dark web cryptocurrency where high-stakes gamblers bet on Marlowe’s death—wagering on when, where, and even how he’ll be taken out. With anonymous backers funding increasingly bizarre assassination attempts, every encounter is a brutal, unpredictable fight for survival. Hunted by killers, pursued by MI5, and unable to trust anyone, Marlowe is backed into a corner.

The ninth book in the critically acclaimed, internationally bestselling series of Tom Marlowe thrillers, and written by New York Times #1 Bestseller Tony Lee writing as Jack Gatland, Shadow Threat is perfect for fans of the Bourne movies, Burn Notice, Mission Impossible, Jack Ryan, James Patterson, Mark Dawson, Lee Child, Mick Herron and Robert Ludlum, among others.
