    About this ebook

    TERRORISM JUST GOT PERSONAL. 

    In the oppressive London summer heat, two brothers orchestrate the deadliest terror attack the city has ever seen. Three airport-bound trains are brought to a standstill with thousands held hostage. And when the dust settles, the Metropolitan Police are left scrambling for solutions. 

    The terrorists promise to let hostages go, but first Detective Jake Tanner must play his part in their twisted games. The rules are simple--follow them, and no one gets hurt. Break them, and the consequences will be fatal. But when he discovers the identity of one of the passengers, Jake realises this isn't just about saving hostages. 

    Battling a faceless figure who's appointed himself God, Jake must save the passengers before the city descends into utter mayhem. 

    But how far will he go? Will he save everyone in time? And will he like the chilling truth he learns along the way?

    Standstill is the first book in the pulsating Jake Tanner terror series. If you like gut-wrenching, nauseatingly-suspenseful, edge-of-your-seat thrill rides that'll leave you begging for sleep, you'll love this.

    Dear Super-Reader,

    If you're a fan of David Baldacci, Lee Child, James Patterson, Vince Flynn, Andy McNab, Tim Tigner, Mark Dawson or Tom Clancy, then chances are you'll enjoy some of my Jake Tanner terror thriller novels. Dare I even say love? 

    Want to try before you buy? Want to get to know the real Jake Tanner - the man behind the badge - beforehand? Then you can download an exclusive character sheet that lets you behind the scenes into his life - some stuff won't appear in the books! 

    For the same price as a coffee, you can enjoy my terror thrillers that'll keep you on the edge of your seat throughout. Afterwards, you won't be able to see anything the same ever again. 

    What more could you want? Plus, it'll last longer than a cup of coffee. 

    Your Friendly Author,

    Jack
