Shadow Cell Books

The war on terror needs a new weapon. International art sleuth Adriana Villa’s life is dangerous enough. Saving stolen masterpieces—by stealing them back from the thieves, gangsters, and war criminals who hoard them—has nearly killed her more times than she can count. So, when a secret government agency recruits her to help hunt down a furtive terrorist network bent on stealing some of the world’s most powerful missiles, Adriana takes some persuading. She is, after all, in no hurry to die battling an even more lethal brand of killer. And saving priceless art is nothing like fighting to save the free world. But when she learns of their plan to smuggle a handful of the deadly rockets into London and kill tens of thousands of innocents in the largest terrorist attack in history, Adriana relents—and goes to war. Victory won’t come easily, though. To launch their murderous strikes, the terrorists will deploy every scheme, every tactic they can think of to stop, or kill, anyone who gets in their way—even the most dangerous woman in the world. Fresh off the runaway success of his wildly popular Sean Wyatt thriller series, USA TODAY best-selling author Ernest Dempsey again electrifies readers with his newest edge-of-your-seat shocker. Adriana Villa is a ruthless modern-day hero in a deadly modern-day fight for freedom, and she’ll have to fight nearly as dirty as the enemy to save all our lives.

But as her team moves in on a weapons-smuggling cell in Istanbul, Adriana’s cover is blown. Turns out members of the Red Ring, the most secretive, most lethal terrorists in the world have been watching her, too. To save the lives of the innocent thousands targeted by the terrorists’ weapons of death, Adriana and June race across Southern Europe as their intel leads them up the chain of command and deeper into the heart of the shadowy power behind the Red Ring.

As the global war on terrorism rages on, the elite government agents of Shadow Cell hope they see an eventual break in the battle. Agent Adriana Villa and her boss, June Holiday, have lured in a mysterious defector who supplies them with the secret locations of a network of widely scattered hideouts and weapons caches of the deadly Red Ring, the most barbaric, most ruthless terrorist network in history. This highly classified information, however, quickly turns out to be just another ruse in the terrorists’ elaborate and deadly scheme to eliminate Shadow Cell and inflict mass casualties upon innocent civilian populations worldwide. As the two remaining Shadow Cell agents, Adriana and June are forced to turn to Interpol and other international law enforcement agencies for help as the clock ticks down on what they believe to be the Red Ring’s grand and savage scheme—mass murder and invasion on a near-biblical scale. USA Today best-selling author Ernest Dempsey once again keeps his foot on the proverbial gas as Shadow Cell races readers across a world in turmoil. A world quivering from a series of Red Ring attacks. A world teetering in the balance. A world that will never be safe if the terrorists eliminate Shadow Cell completely.
