What to expect
A riveting historical supernatural thriller full of endearing characters that readers will remember for a long time!” — The Great Reads *Top 500 Reviewer*
An immortal healer. An ancient empire reborn. A chain of cataclysmic events that threatens to change the fate of the world.
Retired Bastian covert operative Conrad Greene has but one wish left. To live out the rest of eternity away from Immortals and humans alike. But when a plane crashes into the Amazonian swamp where he has been hiding for half a century, the jaded immortal healer who was once the greatest asset of the Bastian First Council stumbles across a conspiracy involving the newly elected President of the United States. Caught in the middle of the intrigue is Bastian intelligence operative Laura Hartwell, the one immortal on Earth most likely to put a bullet through Conrad’s skull.
Coerced into returning to the life he had left behind, Conrad reluctantly agrees to assist the American government with their investigation. But as disturbing events start to unfold around the globe, Conrad and his team of elite human and Immortal agents find themselves facing an elusive organization hellbent on shifting the power balance of the world.
As chaos descends on Western societies and an old empire rises once more, can Conrad stop the deadly countdown that threatens to alter the course of human history and regain the trust of the woman he loves?
Empire is the third book in AD Starrling’s bestselling supernatural thriller series Seventeen. This is a fast-paced urban fantasy adventure featuring Immortals, non-stop globe-trotting action, and an explosive storyline.
