About this listen
A pulse-pounding international spy-techno thriller, The Precipice weaves a tale of cyber mystery, high-stakes action, and a love worth killing for.
In December 2021, as the world teeters on the precipice of the darkest time in Europe since World War II, Miha Reznyk–an international entrepreneur, a gnarly hacker, and a covert intelligence contractor–is thrust into a race against the inevitable. A deadly software vulnerability emerges, a cyberweapon so powerful it could tilt the scales of global power.
With Russia eyeing it for its looming offensive against Ukraine, the U.S. maneuvers in the shadows, recruiting Reznyk to snatch it from falling into evil hands. But the mission spirals into a chaotic nightmare from the get-go, hurling Reznyk in a whirlwind of espionage, deceit, and peril.
From the bustling streets of Europe and the U.S. to the clandestine ops in the Middle East and the bottomless cyber underworld, join Reznyk in a gripping adventure where trust is a luxury, while betrayal and death are a given.
For fans of the plotting of David Baldacci and Mark Greaney, and the immersive narrative in the styles of Michael Connelly and John Sandford, The Precipice promises a story that’s not just riveting but refreshingly unique in the world of spy novels. Dive in, but be warned—you may not come up for air until you’ve finished it all. Get ready for a thrilling ride that’s as relevant as it is exhilarating.

Story
Two little girls stand with their heads bowed in my living room. I’m told they’re my granddaughters. Daisy is nine, and Alice seven. Daisy is the spitting image of her mother. This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.

After the killing of a prominent mob lawyer, NYPD homicide detectives Jacob Jackson and Caitlin Grimes start receive chilling, written “rules” for how to commit the perfect murder. "Rule number one for the perfect murder: Evidence is your enemy. Leave none behind." Jackson (Reid Scott) and Grimes (Cobie Smulders) race to find the killer, setting them on a collision course with the city’s crime underbelly, and a perpetrator who seems happy to toy with them. “Rule number two. No crimes of passion. The perfect murder is always business, never pleasure.”

Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Story
When Erika Polowski is abducted from her bed and held captive without explanation, she has one goal. Get away before they kill her. Keith Auger’s job as an agent is to keep Erika safe—even if it means keeping her locked in an abandoned cabin in the middle of nowhere. At gunpoint.. What should be a routine “involuntary extraction” goes south when someone finds out where they’re hiding. Add to that a coworker with a chip on her shoulder and too many unexplained “accidents,” and it all adds up to one unlikely, terrifying explanation.
