David Morrell, bestselling author of such classic suspense thrillers as Desperate Measures, Assumed Identity, and The Brotherhood of the Rose, breaks extraordinary new ground in a novel that weaves psychological complexity with blockbuster action, romance with intrigue, and a stunning plot with a pace that simply does not let up . . .

At forty, Steve Decker is one of America's most accomplished anti-terrorist operatives.  Then a bungled covert operation kills twenty-three people in Rome and leaves Decker shouldering the blame.  Embittered by the fiasco, he retires to the mountains of New Mexico and there meets an extraordinary woman named Beth Dwyer.  She changes his life.

Suddenly Decker has the very things he had lived so long without:  a beautiful, brilliant woman he longs to marry and a future that could include children.  But when a terrifying assault rips his world apart, Beth disappears -- leaving an agonizing mystery in her wake.

Who is this woman he loved so completely, almost to the point of obsession?  Is she still alive?  Was she captured by Decker's enemies -- or her own?  Did she love him or use him -- possibly as bait in some sinister plan?  Reaching back into his shadowy past, Decker discovers that two malicious -- and diametrically opposed -- forces have been stalking him.

To stay alive, Decker must use all his carefully honed skills, stay one step ahead of his murderous enemies, and pray that luck is on his side as he moves from hunter to hunted, from the deserts of Santa Fe to the streets of New York City.  For Decker the stakes couldn't be higher:  Beth's love, and, most of all, the truth.

Full of hairpin twists and turns, and electrifying and chillingly realistic action, as well as remarkably drawn characters, Extreme Denial is David Morrell's best book yet . . . a novel that takes you all the way to the edge of your emotions and the limits of suspense.
