Description

One of Suspense Magazine's Best of 2017

"For hard-core adrenaline junkies... [ Seconds to Midnight] delivers high-octane action from the first page to the last."—Mystery Scene Magazine

While on a routine Eco-Watch flight above northern Canada to study one of the most powerful solar flares in history, Donovan Nash and Michael Ross narrowly miss colliding with another aircraft a Boeing 737 that's not supposed to be there. With the mysterious 737 trailing smoke, Donovan and Michael watch as the stricken aircraft makes an emergency landing on a frozen lake.

As the Boeing breaks through the ice and begins to sink, a figure escapes into the frigid water and manages to climb up onto the ice. Donovan reaches the lone survivor and discovers they are a young woman. Just before she blacks out, she whispers a dire warning, "Don't let them know I'm alive—they'll kill everyone."

Seconds to Midnight plunges Donovan Nash and the Eco-Watch team into a fight for their lives. While Donovan searches for answers at the bottom of a frozen lake in Canada, his wife, Lauren, runs from operatives embedded in the top levels of the Russian government. With communication in the Northern Hemisphere crippled by the massive solar storm, Donovan, Michael, and Lauren battle for each second, as the clock ticks toward a possible Armageddon.

―Publishers Weekly

"Sharp dialogue and capable protagonists make for a compelling espionage novel. Philip Donlay’s Pegasus Down, the sixth book in his Donovan Nash series, is an action-packed thrill ride from the opening scene."

―Foreword Reviews

"Mr. Donlay has developed some amazing characters in this Donovan Nash Thriller series. In Pegasus Down he adds some new characters from Donovan's past, develops them very well and delivers a real punch with this latest installment."

―Fresh Fiction

"...chock full with non-stop action that is guaranteed to keep you at the edge of your seat."

―Manhattan Book Review

"Before you crack open Pegasus Down the new novel by Philip Donlay, you better buckle up: You’re in for a hell of a ride."―Killer Nashville Magazine

"On par with the best in suspense writing, the story plays out like an edge-of-your-seat movie, complete with danger, explosions, intrigue, betrayal and redemption. The extensive descriptions of aircraft jargon and technology bring a realistic dimension but may slow the story down for some readers. Even so, for anyone who loves action, intrigue and adventure, this one is an absolute must!"―InD'tale

Featured Reviews

This is the first book I've read in the Donovan Nash series and took me a while to get used to the characters however there is plenty of information on them to catch up. I found this exciting and action packed from the beginning and will definitely read the previous books in the series. I would highly recommended this book
