Metal Spies (Shadowfast Action Thriller, #1) / Shadowfast Action Thriller (ePub)

Rock out with your Glock out in the heavy metal caper readers describe as "a wild ride" with "hilarious characters" and "a great ending."

Quinn Richards feels trapped in a world he didn't create. Sure, he inherited a fabulous mansion. But it demands endless upkeep. Even when he masterminds successful cons with his metal band and heist crew, Shadowfast, he remains broke and dissatisfied. He's not sure what his problem is.

When a mysterious client hires Shadowfast to steal data, Quinn conceives a flashy heist to play in the big leagues. Instead, he gets played by the big leagues. A shadowy cabal of bend-the-rules politicians blackmail Quinn into serving them. Their intel shows that notorious tech billionaire Brody Bach plans an attack on the US. If Quinn doesn't uncover what the attack is, and when, he and his team face prison for life.

Smoldering at being enslaved, Quinn plots how to get free—with a tidy profit. But there's little time for vengeance, when an international whirlpool of counterplots, deception, and assassination drags him and his rag-tag team in over their heads.

A technological threat draws the United States ever closer to Stone Age 2.0. The fate of a nation depends upon a creative con man and his heavy metal band. In choosing his path, Quinn will learn whether he can succeed as a scoundrel—or maybe his problem is that he's a good man.

Metal Spies kicks off a three-part story tailored to delight fans of Mission: Impossible, Mark Greaney, Lee Goldberg, and Jason Kasper. Click now to read Metal Spies.

EDITORIAL REVIEWS

"When I came across the Shadowfast series, I found myself deliriously enjoying the fast-paced and witty trilogy packed with badass action and cool characters. ...You simply are compelled to read all these books one after the other. ...Delivers for fans seeking a cerebral narrative as much as it caters to readers looking for their next memorable action-packed read. –Kashif Hussain, BestThrillerBooks.com

"Cole Chase takes us on such a fun ride! Like a well written song, it has action, dynamics, and moral dilemmas. It takes us to situations and feelings we can all identify with, which makes it feel so much more personal than other spy novels I have read. I am waiting for the next episode...but not so patiently." – Mark X, RivetSkull guitarist

"[Metal Spies] combines the techno-thriller aspect of a Mission: Impossible story with the comradery and humor of Guardians of the Galaxy. I've honestly never read an action book where I looked forward to the banter among the characters as much." --ladame, Amazon reader

"The non-stop action, snappy dialogue, and relatable characters all add up to a great ride with plenty of laughs and unexpected predicaments along the way. . . . but beware! The first two books end in absolute cliffhangers, so I'd suggest that you order the entire "thrillogy" as soon as you can." –Kindle Customer
