Red Mist by longtime Road & Track editor Sam Mitani is a pulse-pounding thriller that intertwines the worlds of motorsport and high-stakes espionage. The novel follows Maximilian Koga, a former U.S. Navy Lieutenant Commander and DEA agent, who is drawn back into a life of danger and deception after surviving a harrowing attack by a drug cartel in Mexico. Koga, a man haunted by his past, is relentless in his pursuit of justice and revenge, particularly against an elusive terrorist leader with frightening intentions.
Fueled by his obsession with cars and speed, a passion inherited from his late father, Koga is recruited by a prestigious automotive magazine with a secret agenda. Alongside a team of skilled operatives, including the enigmatic Stockton Clay and a cunning special agent named Beth Hu, the tormented Koga navigates a world where seductive vehicles and deadly conspiracies collide. For those who crave an intense blend of action and covert ops, seasoned with heart-pounding automotive excitement, Red Mist invites you to strap in for the ride of your life.

Person
Sam Mitani was born in Tokyo, Japan, and moved to Southern California with his family at the age of two, where he grew up. He was the first Asian-American senior staff member of an English language major automobile publication and is best known for his work as International Editor for Road & Track magazine, where he was a staff editor for 22 years. Among his many automotive firsts, Sam was a member of the first American motorcycle tour of Vietnam since the war. The exploits of this trek were chronicled in Cycle World magazine. In 2010, he set a class land speed record at the Bonneville Salt Flats in a modified four-cylinder Suzuki Kizashi family sedan, clocking 203.73 mph. This run also qualified him to join the exclusive and prestigious Bonneville Salt Flats 200-mph Club. Sam holds a 6th-degree black belt in judo and has previously placed third at the World Masters Championship International Competition in São Paulo, Brazil. His debut novel, The Prototype, was published in 2018. Red Mist is his second novel and the second book in The Prototype Trilogy, followed by the third and final book entitled Keys to the Empire.
