Summary

Summary

For the tens of thousands of visitors to the world's largest theme park, the day begins with a smile. But by the end, they start to wonder if they will escape with their lives. 

Undercover Delta Force operative Master Sergeant Jonathan "Jad" Bell has been deployed to act as the theme park's lead security officer. The threat begins with the announcement of a hidden dirty bomb but quickly becomes something far, far worse. Trained since the age of eighteen to save innocent victims from impossible hostage situations, Jad scrambles to assess the threat and protect the visitors. He will come face-to-face with a villain whose skills match his in every way—and present a danger Jad may not be able to stop.

Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

Alpha is hands down, the most exciting, adrenaline-pumping, butt-kicking novel I’ve read in years. Rucka is the real deal. If this one doesn’t make you stay up late rooting for the good guys, you don't have a heartbeat. Highly recommended!” Christopher Reich, New York Times bestselling author
“This lean, mean thriller with just the right amount of character development and unexpected complications will appeal to all who enjoy this genre but particularly to readers who like a strong hero along the lines of Lee Child’s Jack Reacher.” Library Journal (starred review)
“This pulse-pounding first in a new thriller series from bestseller Rucka introduces special operative Jonathan ‘Jad’ Bell…Rucka mixes suspense and an alarmingly realistic plot with ease.” Publishers Weekly
“A very effective thriller that could also be the start of an interesting new series.” Booklist
