Mind Games (Rake Stafford Series)
Description
Can stress kill?
You bet!
Ted Deacon has it all: a loving wife, two beautiful children, his dream job-a trajectory that spells success! Then that life vanishes.
The FBI's Counterterrorism Division requires a method of assassination that is so natural it can never be questioned. To accomplish this they turn to Gideon Mayfair. Using animals in a maze, Mayfair and his researchers show how stress can be turned into an assassin's weapon. Their urgent need is to prove the process on a man. A random target is chosen.
He is Ted Deacon.
From New York City to a palace in Turkey, from small town Vermont to the jungles of Mindanao, Ted Deacon is a man in a maze. Personally. Professionally. Intuitively. Sexually. Mayfair calculatingly attacks every facet of Ted's life, while Ted, in a desperate attempt to save himself, battles a force he doesn't even know exists.
But for Mayfair, merely proving the theory works is not enough. His twisted need is to make the process personal. Very personal.
A page-turning debut psychological thriller and Book One of the Rake Stafford series.
