THE RELIC SYNDICATE
A Jack Reilly Archaeological Thriller
​
Going home after a grueling mission used to mean rest, relaxation, and maybe a beer or two. Now, after what happens next, Jack Reilly can never go home again.
The FBI has received incriminating evidence exposing the Tactical Archaeological Command’s existence and revealing that they willingly collaborated with known terrorists during their last mission. As a result, the pair in charge of the operation, Jack Reilly and Mayleen Wu, have been placed on the FBI’s most-wanted list. May’s connection to China’s intelligence community has especially caught their attention…
Foreign powers pressure the United States for answers and there’s nothing anyone can do to help, including a very influential senator. Unfortunately, the situation is out of his hands as bureaucrats, who don’t understand global operations, kick in the door.
TAC is shut down overnight. Agents are stranded overseas or detained on the spot. Arrest warrants have also been issued for the group’s director, Solomon Raegor, as well as his second-in-command, Edith “Eddy” Marker.
With nowhere to go, Jack calls a trusted contact, a Colombian smuggler who vows to get Jack and his team out of the country as quickly as possible.
No matter what obstacles stand in Jack’s way, even if it includes the entire United States government, he will not lose focus. There are still too many people out there freely plundering history, and Jack aims to wipe them out.
The next chapter in Jack’s life—his next assignment—begins with a black-market antiquities syndicate based in Jalisco, Mexico, the tequila capital of the world.
The hunt is on.
THE RELIC SYNDICATE is the seventh book in international bestselling author Matt James’ globetrotting Jack Reilly archaeological thriller series.

FRACTURE
A Novel
When time fractures, chaos reigns.
At the Museum of Natural History in New York City, paleontologist Noah Clark is about to unveil his greatest discovery. However, on the day the curtain is set to rise, a cosmic event shatters reality.
The remnants of a colossal supernova strike Earth, engulfing it in a swirling alien fog charged with crackling electricity. Noah, along with everyone else, is left dazed and nauseous. He staggers outside and watches in horror as a Tyrannosaurus rex emerges from the otherworldly miasma and cuts down a bewildered pedestrian.
And the rex isn’t alone…
The unthinkable has happened: The Cretaceous Period—a chapter in Earth’s history ruled by the largest and most dangerous creatures to ever exist—has been hurled sixty-five million years forward in time, inexplicably colliding with our own.
Will Noah and the rest of humanity survive this prehistoric invasion, or will they become prey, driven to extinction in a world reclaimed by its former masters?
FRACTURE beautifully showcases international bestselling author Matt James’ passion for thrilling adventure and edge-of-your-seat suspense, as well as his deep, childlike adoration for dinosaurs.

DARK ISLAND: DEFINITIVE EDITION
Foreword by Ernest Dempsey
The "Definitive Edition" of Matt James' action-packed, international bestselling novel Dark Island features expansive rewrites, revised edits, a reformatted interior, stunning new cover art, and a foreword by USA Today bestselling author Ernest Dempsey.
Like the "Dark Continent" of Africa, the island of Madagascar holds many chilling secrets.
A massive earthquake rocks the mountains within Madagascar’s Andringitra National Park, exposing a network of hidden tunnels, and releasing a pack of hypersensitive predators.
Unfortunately, they aren't alone when they reach the surface...
Ian Hunt lost his wife to the creatures that fateful night. Seven years later, he's still haunted by the tragedy.
Found inside a local watering hole, Ian reluctantly accepts an offer to lead an exploratory team deep beneath the surface in search of the truth.
What he and the others discover is the find of a lifetime...if they survive long enough to tell anyone.
Extinction is alive and well at the heart of the “Dark Island.”
The words of a Matt James story flow like the best rivers. Smooth and subtle at times, interrupted by danger and thrills at every churn of whitewater. This guy is the real deal!
