White knuckle writing from Australia's answer to Andy McNab.

Former army interrogator Jay Ryan is enjoying the quiet life after leaving the military far behind - or so he thinks. Old habits die hard and he's quickly thrust back into the thick of things when a disgruntled scientist, backed by the Australian security industry, develops a weapon of mass destruction - a hybrid strain of Anthrax - to be used to create panic in a population apathetic to crime prevention. Only one batch of Anthrax inoculations can resist the deadly new strain, and it was given to five military interrogators. One of them was Jay Ryan. When the other four disappear, Ryan is the last interrogator left with the antibodies to defeat the deadly Anthrax strain.

Racing against time and hunted by rogue soldiers, mad scientists and an organisation that operates beyond the law, Ryan digs deep into his past for a chance at a future. In this heartstopping thriller, Jay Ryan wages a one-man war against enemies both known and unseen. There's only person he can trust - or can he? Winning the war may have devastating consequences for the last interrogator …

About the author

J J Cooper

As a former member of the Australian Army Intelligence Corps, he specialised in Human Intelligence, including interrogation (as a practitioner and instructor). His expert knowledge and experiences of interrogation techniques add value to the idiosyncrasies and depth of the characters within his novels. Since leaving the military, he spends every spare moment on his passion for writing. He finds time to be a devoted father of two boys and a girl, and lives in Brisbane.

Praise for Deadly Trust

Raw, tough, and uncompromising - exactly what a great thriller needs to be.

Lee Child

With a rip-roaring plot that bursts from the gate and never lets up, a tough-as-nails hero in Jay Ryan, and an insider's knowledge of military intrigue. JJ Cooper is going to have some of the big guns looking over their shoulders with this fire cracker debut. The Interrogator has everything a fan of military thrillers could want - heart-pounding action, chillingly real detail, and a stunning conclusion that will leave them wanting more from JJ Cooper.

Lisa Unger

Packed with intrigue and authentic detail, full of twists, The Interrogator is a memorable debut.

Jeff Abbott

JJ Cooper's The Interrogator is an absolute cracker of an action thriller, a pulse-pounding journey into the darkest corners of international espionage and politics in the company of the utterly compelling Jay Ryan. Prepare to stay awake all night reading it, and all the next wondering how much might be true.
