(Jerusalem, Israel) — This week, the leading website covering thrillers and spy novels broke the story on the title, cover and release date for my next novel.
On March 9, 2021, Marcus Ryker returns to action in The Beirut Protocol, the latest headline-beating thriller from New York Times bestselling author Joel C. Rosenberg.
Following the events of The Jerusalem Assassin, which came out earlier this year, Ryker—a special agent working with the CIA—will face his toughest mission yet: staying alive behind enemy lines.
Ambushed on foreign soil, Ryker and his team suddenly find themselves captured and surrounded by danger. Worse yet, should the terrorists who captured him learn his true identity, all bets are off—and he knows they’ll make an example out of him by executing him live on the internet for all to see . . .
Breaking his previous trend of writing trilogies, something Rosenberg first confirmed during our wide-ranging interview back in March, The Beirut Protocol marks the fourth book (After The Kremlin Conspiracy, the Persian Gamble, and The Jerusalem Assassin) in his popular new franchise. Only Jon Bennett, who served as the protagonist of The Last Jihad series (five books) will have had more screen time than Ryker, whose background and skillset better resembles the traditional thriller mold that we’ve seen from other current literary stars such as Mitch Rapp (Vince Flynn) and Gabriel Allon (Daniel Silva).
Though he wasn’t sure how long Ryker might hang around, Rosenberg did say in March, “I think Marcus Ryker is my favorite character,” and there’s no doubt that fans feel the same way. Marcus has quickly become one of the genre’s premier heroes, and when you combine his physicality with Rosenberg’s uncanny ability to constantly predict future events and beat headlines, it’s easy to see why The Beirut Protocol becomes the first must-read thriller hitting bookstores next spring.
