From #1 bestselling and USA Today bestselling author Jack Mars, author of the critically acclaimed Luke Stone and Agent Zero series (with over 5,000 five-star reviews), comes an explosive new action-packed espionage series that takes readers on a wild ride across Europe, America, and the world.
 
Jacob Snow—elite soldier-turned-CIA agent, haunted by his tortured past—is one of the CIA’s greatest assets, and is dispatched when the stakes are highest. When an ancient Egyptian relic goes missing under mysterious circumstances, Jacob knows this is no run-of-the-mill robbery: the relic holds a secret—one that could destroy everything.
 
Jacob seeks out a mysterious and beautiful archeologist, whose brilliance is needed on the case. Together, they must partner to decode the archeological riddles and stop the terrorists before it is too late.
 
Yet as they race to recover the stolen artifact, they soon find themselves in the midst of a conspiracy bigger than anything they could have imagined—and time is quickly running out. 
 
An unputdownable action thriller with heart-pounding suspense and unforeseen twists, TARGET ONE is the debut novel in an exhilarating new series by a #1 bestselling author that will make you fall in love with a brand-new action hero—and keep you turning pages late into the night.

  • Awesome first book!

    I love this book!! It’s very well written and has an amazing flow throughout the storyline. I recently started reading books because I noticed that I struggled with my English skills. I took a look into the book app on my phone and found this book, among a couple others. Of the three books I initially picked, this one stuck and I’ve enjoyed it since. I’ve learned that playing instrumental music in the background while I read, adds a certain tone/vibe to the story depending on the song. Sort of like how a movie alters the feeling of a scene. This book, along with suspenseful yet epic music, has been quite the journey. Thankfully the first book in the series is free. After I complete this book, I will for sure be buying the next ones.

    Typical of this author. His book seem to be getting put into short episodes as opposed to having a full novel.
  • Racist anti Islamic book

    This book portrays islam in a derogatory manner. Such a shame. The author makes a lot of reference to Islamic beliefs and connects them strongly with the terrorist which is a misrepresentation of islam and its values.
  • So good!

    This was a thoroughly enjoyable read that got better as it went on. I read it in two short evenings where it was the perfect level of engrossing to keep my attention away from personal stress.

    Fast paced thriller, but a bit short and simple
