Downstate

Jeffery Deaver
Mystery, Police Procedural

A faceless enemy. A small-town conspiracy. A federal agent walking straight into danger.

FBI Special Agent Constant Marlowe is chasing down “Mr. X,” a key figure in organized crime. Her mission? Find him, flip him, and bring a criminal empire to its knees. The problem? She doesn’t know his real name, what he looks like, or who she can trust.

The trail leads her to Downstate Illinois, a quiet farming town where towering cornfields hide more than just crops. When a simple convenience store robbery spirals into something far more sinister, Marlowe realizes she’s stumbled into a deadly conspiracy—and now she’s in the crosshairs.

A 4.3-star Amazon bestseller, Downstate is a pulse-pounding thriller from New York Times bestselling author Jeffery Deaver, perfect for fans of intense crime drama and high-stakes suspense.
