A Drake Brothers Thriller (Book 1)
Three years of silence. One impossible case. A truth that could kill them both.
FBI Special Agent Thomas Drake hasn't spoken to his brother since their father's funeral, when grief and alcohol led to unforgivable words. Now a credible threat against Utah's governor during the peak ski season at Park City forces them back together: Thomas with his Olympic-level skiing and tactical expertise, Simon with his genius for breaking unbreakable codes.
The kidnapping plot seems straightforward at first: five ex-military operatives, a compromised chief of staff, and a plan to grab the governor during a charity ski race. But as the brothers navigate Park City's deadly slopes and their own fractured relationship, nothing is what it seems. The kidnappers know their every move. Someone inside the FBI is feeding information to the enemy. And the conspiracy reaches far beyond one governor's environmental policies.
When sixty innocent people, including Simon's eight-year-old daughter Lily, become trapped on a sabotaged ski lift with minutes before the chairs detach and fall, the stakes become personal. The brothers must work in perfect synchronization for the first time in years, combining Thomas's physical prowess with Simon's digital warfare to save the people they love.
But stopping the kidnapping is just the beginning. The evidence points to Western Energy Consortium and a shadow organization called the Board, powerful enough to orchestrate murders that look like heart attacks. The same kind of heart attack that killed their father three years ago. As Thomas and Simon dig deeper, they realize their father's death wasn't natural, and the conspiracy he was investigating goes all the way to Washington.
With their boss potentially compromised, killers closing in, and everyone they care about in danger, the Drake brothers must decide: Is exposing the truth worth losing everything? And can they trust each other enough to survive what's coming?
POWDER PROTOCOL launches the Drake Brothers Thriller Series with an explosive mix of high-altitude action, cutting-edge cyber warfare, and the emotional journey of two brothers finding their way back to each other while fighting for their lives. Set against the stunning backdrop of Utah's ski country, this is a thriller that races downhill at breakneck speed while never losing sight of the human heart at its core.
Because in the mountains of Utah, the only thing deeper than the powder is the corruption, and the only thing stronger than the conspiracy might be the bond between brothers.
