" The Treleous Connection is a fast-paced thriller packed with espionage, and intrigue, sprinkled with a bit of unresolved romance. With bad dudes, political twists, and a perilous chase through the Caribbean, Hurst's gripping, ripping, non-stop action story keeps the tension taut and the pages turning." -Cam Torrens, author of the Tyler Zahn suspense series Craig Black thinks he's seen it all in his career with the CIA, but this case tops the list. He's just discovered that the secret organization he's been hunting, Treleous, is connected to a disgraced ex-CIA scientist. Worse, his government channels have been compromised. Unsure who he can trust, he has no choice but to call on former agents Eddie Mason and Loren Malen for help. But Eddie and Loren soon reach a standstill in their efforts to stop Treleous. Their adversaries have learned their identities and location, and they're running out of clues-and time. Their one lead is a long-closed CIA project called Madera. While Craig sneaks Loren into Cuba, Eddie travels to Greece to find a sensitive piece of US military tech being sold on the black market. They're not certain that either mission is even connected to Treleous, but they have no other clues to pursue, and they won't be able to get their lives back until they stop them once and for all.
