New Thriller Lethal Target Delivers High-Octane Suspense and Twists at Every Turn
Fans of crime fiction and high-stakes thrillers have a gripping new book to add to their must-read list. Lethal Target, the latest release from acclaimed author Chiemelie Kyrian Offor, is a pulse-pounding story of betrayal, revenge, and the relentless pursuit of justice.
In Lethal Target, when a routine day at the bustling Adewumi International Airport turns into a fiery nightmare, the fragile peace of a nation hangs by a thread. Amid the chaos of an unspeakable terrorist attack, Gabriel Kayode, a seasoned and relentless agent of Nigeria’s Department of State Services, is thrust into a deadly web of conspiracies, insurgency, and betrayal, forced to protect the governor’s daughter while proving his innocense against a well-planned attack.
As the trusted protector of Christiana Olaniyan, the governor’s fiercely independent daughter, Gabriel is sworn to keep her safe. But in a state brimming with shadows, covered in blood, dusts of anguish, and a lunatic on the run, safety is an illusion. The Sons of Rangers, a ruthless insurgent group with nothing to lose, have made the governor and the state’s peace their ultimate target, focusing on distabilizing his family and making his daughter a forgotten memory. But Gabriel Kayode is determined not to let that happen, even as the lines between duty and survival blur.
Haunted by a near-fatal mistake that nearly cost Christiana her life, Gabriel finds himself under fire—both from his superiors and a storm of bullets. Meanwhile, Christiana refuses to be a passive in the game of her protection from danger. Fierce and resourceful, she pushes back against the constraints of her status, insisting on having things her way.
But the clock is ticking. As an unrelenting enemy prepares for its next deadly strike, Gabriel and Christiana must confront their fears and uncover the devastating truth behind the attacks—before the Sons of Rangers claim more innocent lives. Loyalties will be tested, secrets unraveled, and sacrifices made. In the fight to protect Christiana and unmask the insurgency, Gabriel must decide how far he’s willing to go—and what he’s willing to lose.
