No Prayers for the Dying
In the high-stakes game of international spycraft, the most dangerous weapon is the truth. And Matt Gage is about to unleash it.
Ex-CIA operative Matt Gage believed the covert world was firmly in his rear view. But the untimely demise of a Silicon Valley powerhouse drags him back to the subterranean chessboard of spycraft. At the behest of the tenacious Elizabeth Zhou, the magnate’s daughter, he starts an inquiry that promises more shadows than truths.
From the vibrant alleys of Chinatown to the imposing skyscrapers of the tech giants, a sinister web unfolds, where the line between friend and foe isn't just blurred—it's non-existent. Each revelation is a grenade with its pin pulled. Every move is made on a knife’s edge. And with every step, Gage walks closer into the subtle battle being waged far from the public eye.
In this electrifying dance of loyalty, betrayal, and the harrowing price of the truth, one misstep could be the last. Perfect for readers who crave the heart-pounding thrill of Lee Child’s Jack Reacher, the cerebral espionage of Robert Ludlum's Jason Bourne, and the intricate plotting of David Baldacci.

I grew up outside Tampa, Florida and attended the University of Florida, where I graduated from the College of Journalism and Communications (Go Gators!). After graduation, I commissioned in the U.S. Air Force, serving as a logistics officer and war planner. After my military service, I worked in defense and tech before writing full time. I’ve had the opportunity to live abroad and see a large part of the world, thanks to my time in the military, and that’s certainly informed my writing. I currently live in Washington, DC, with my wife and daughters.
I’m a lifelong storyteller. I began writing at eight and never stopped. My school notebooks were indecipherable because I had as many story fragments, ideas, notes and bits of dialogue as I did whatever I was actually supposed to be taking notes on. I believe there is real power in stories. It can help us see and understand our world with a different perspective and experience things we might never see. But mostly, there’s just nothing like a great story well told.
Outside of writing, I’m passionate and loud about good books, good wine, music, travelling, snowboarding, college football and spending time with my family.
