"Starts with a bang and never slows down—a very superior high-stakes thriller." —#1 New York Times bestselling author Lee Child
When a bombing at 10 Downing Street wounds the Prime Minister and tests Great Britain's resolve, American ex-cop Adam Tatum must confront a conspiracy in the highest halls of power
Former Michigan detective Adam Tatum receives an unexpected offer, a golden opportunity that seems almost too good to be true. He travels to 10 Downing Street to participate in a high-stakes conference. Immediately after his visit, a bomb detonates, wounding the prime minister and placing Adam Tatum squarely in the crosshairs of suspicion.
Sensing a setup, Tatum flees with his family, desperately fighting for survival in an unfamiliar country. The lives of his children, the future of his marriage, and the fate of a nation depend on Tatum exposing the conspirators who pegged him for a fall.
Georgia Turnbull, the chancellor of the exchequer, and Davina Steel, the lead investigator, both stand to gain from the successful manhunt of Adam Tatum. But, as motives emerge and desires ignite, each must decide what they're really after.
Layered plots, crackling dialogue, and propulsive action mark Keep Calm, the riveting debut thriller from award-winning actor, director, and screenwriter Mike Binder.

      In the gripping opening of screenwriter Binder’s first novel, a tense political thriller, a bomb explodes during a high-powered conference at 10 Downing Street, seriously injuring Prime Minister Roland Lassiter. Adam Tatum, an American ex-cop now working for a powerful British-owned investment firm, becomes the prime suspect, because his presence during the conference was seemingly last-minute. With Lassiter out of commission, Georgia Turnbull, the first female chancellor of the exchequer, assumes his duties. Davina Steel, the head of an antiterrorism unit, leads the investigation into the bombing. Meanwhile, Adam goes on the run with his family. Davina proves her mettle, despite her youth, her insight having been honed by observing customers and the streets near her parents’ Bloomsbury cafe. Amid an exposition-laden plot with a surfeit of characters, only Georgia and Davina are worth caring about. Their relationship brings a much-needed humanity to this tale of betrayal at the highest levels of government and business. Agent: Adam Levine, Verve.
