A former CIA locksmith turned glorified janitor is haunted by a botched Cold War operation with ramifications that extend to the present day.
New York Times bestselling author Jason M. Hough pens a fast paced thriller packed full of action, perfect for fans of Alma Katsu and David McCloskey.
"Jason Hough once again gives us a taut, clever thriller with a fantastic hero, showing us how any skill becomes a superpower when you’re the best there is at it. One part espionage thriller, one part instructional manual, and entirely fantastic, I freakin’ loved THROW AWAY THE KEY!"
"Rarely have I had so much fun! Hough’s flawed locksmith—possessed of no special strength or martial prowess—is far more plausible than the average thriller protagonist, and it makes for a very relatable and entertaining read. Should Lars Bergman get in more trouble in the future, as seems likely, I will happily devour each and every adventure."
