Description

He does the government’s dirty work. When he’s double-crossed by one of his own, he’ll stop at nothing to take out the trash.

Korea, 22nd Century. Surrender isn’t in Stefan Mendoza’s DNA. So when a traitor betrays his black-ops team, he alone pushes through the torture and escapes with revenge burning in his mind. On the verge of a systems failure, he taps into his underground network for a set of cybernetic limbs. But his high-tech recovery comes at a heavy price—an assassination hit on a rising political star.

Filled with resentment for the cutthroat world of contract killers, he uses the hit job as a cover to track down the traitor. When he discovers he’s competing with other assassins for the same political target, he starts to piece together a sinister conspiracy that could lead him straight to the shadowy figure behind his betrayal.

Trapped within a hotbed of corruption, can Mendoza exact his revenge and win his freedom or will he spiral deeper into the twisted game of brokered death?

Into Twilight is the first book in The Stefan Mendoza Trilogy of high-octane cyberpunk techno-thrillers. If you like street-smart soldiers, complex conspiracies, and immersive sci-fi settings, then you'll love P.R. Adams's noir-style page-turner.

Advance Praise

The first chapter of Into Twilight grabs you by the throat and accelerates up to mach speeds. If that first part doesn't grab you, nothing will. For fans of Cyberpunk, books like Altered Carbon and Neuromancer or films like Ghost in the Shell or The Matrix, you just found your next hook. This book deals with a contractor for "The Agency" who understands that he is expendable. Despite that, some things cross a line and he finds himself delving into layers beyond his reach and into conspiracies he didn't fully expect. Another aspect that I love about this book is that it creates a real sense of technology for the timeframe involved. It fits perfectly into a world we might expect or possibly avoid. I've been impressed by the writer's work in other series and this one feels like the cherry on top.
