Synopsis

David Trevellyan takes a lonely late-night walk between a restaurant and his New York City hotel. A familiar huddled shape in the mouth of an alley catches his eye. A homeless man has been shot dead. As David steps forward, a police car arrives. And a second too late he realizes he's been set up.

Trevellyan isn't worried. He's a survivor from the shadowy world of Royal Navy Intelligence. He's been in and out of trouble a thousand times before. But when the police hand the case to the FBI, he's sucked deeper into the system.

With no idea who is friend and who is foe, he penetrates deep into a huge international conspiracy, which spans from war-torn Iraq to the very heart of the USA. He knows that the price of failure will be death, but the reward for success will be redemption - for himself as well as for the huddled corpse from the alley. His motivation is his cherished life-long belief: you don't get mad - you get EVEN.

'Brilliantly plotted and smart, and delivers the bone-jarring kick of a .45'

Media Reviews
Advance Praise for Even : Andrew Grant's debut novel reads like it was written by an old pro with new things to say. Even is a bit of LeCarre and Ian Fleming, but with more grit and a sharper edge. Wonderful sardonic wit and crackling dialogue. --Nelson DeMille In Even, Andrew Grant introduces British naval intelligence officer David Trevellyan, a man born to fight and trained to win, locked in a suspenseful contest with terrifying adversaries. An excellent thriller that feels like breaking news. --Thomas Perry The first paragraph is a whopper. . .the last one made me gasp. With surprise. With delight. David Trevellyan is by turns witty and wicked. Fans of 007 will be shaken and stirred. --Sandra Brown Modern noir at its best . . . Even is brilliantly plotted and smart, and delivers the bone-jarring kick of a .45. Here's hoping author Grant is hard at work on the next installment featuring his thoroughly compelling tough guy hero, David Trevellyan. --Jeffery Deaver Andrew Grant storms onto the scene with a thriller that is pure entertainment. He has a relentless writing style that is grippingly addictive and heralds a remarkable talent in the making. I couldn't put it down. --Vince Flynn Move over Jason Bourne. British Marine David Trevellyan can outwit, outmaneuver and overpower the best of them in this rocket-ride of a thriller. I always like a man who knows how to get even... --Lisa Gardner, New York Times bestselling author of The Neighbor Even is a slam-bam humdinger of a thriller, with breakneck pacing that won't leave you even a moment to catch your breath. Andrew Grant has created a hero so intriguing that readers will surelyclamor for the next book in what I hope will be a long-lived series. I will certainly be looking forward to it! --Tess Gerritsen Think a young, British, Jason Bourne framed and trapped in New York City and running for his life. Think about a new author on the scene who writes action like a veteran. Think about trying to put this book down, and then clear your calendar: it ain't going to happen. -- Ridley Pearson
