He has since written twenty-two successive bestselling novels of suspense, including The Manhattan Hunt Club, The Right Hand of Evil, The Presence, Black Lightning, The Homing, and Guardian. He is also the author of the New York Times bestselling serial thriller The Blackstone Chronicles, initially published in six installments but now available in one complete volume.
