About this listen

International nuclear espionage turns allies into enemies in this electrifying thriller from the author of The Handler.

Nuclear negotiations between the United States and Iran have reached a crisis point. The new American administration is determined to move ahead, but there are several stumbling blocks, not the least of which is Lieutenant Colonel Kasem Khalidi, the former Iranian Quds Force intelligence officer the CIA has hidden away in one of its safe houses.

As always, John and Meredith Dale are caught in the middle. Mossad—the Israeli intelligence agency—wants Meredith's help to find a suspected cache of Quds tactical nukes, while John is in a desperate race to keep Kasem one step ahead of an Iranian hit squad.

They are pawns in an international chess game, and any player knows you cannot capture the king without sacrificing some pawns.

Critic Reviews

"Authentic and intelligent—a terrifying glimpse into the threats brewing in the shadows."—Kyle Mills, New York Times bestselling author of Vince Flynn’s Mitch Rapp series, on Dead Drop

“A new thriller author to binge… people have got to read Dead Drop. It’s an addictive book.”—Hugh Hewitt, host of The Hugh Hewitt Show

"Woodward is a veteran of US Intelligence, and it’s obvious because of the knowledgeable and believable scenarios he writes for his characters. I haven’t seen the same confidence, skill, and ability in spy novels since Robert Ludlum."—The Big Thrill

MP Woodward has once again raised the bar with Dead Drop, delivering a masterful follow-up that proves his storytelling only gets sharper with each release. This novel is a high-octane blend of action, suspense, and intrigue, pulling readers in with its relentless pace and unpredictable twists. The plot unfolds with clever precision, keeping you hooked from the first page to the last. Woodward’s writing is not only dynamic but also deeply engaging, making every turn of the story both surprising and satisfying. If this is the direction of his series, then a third installment would be nothing short of thrilling. Dead Drop is a clear testament to a winning formula that shows no signs of slowing down.
