The Cost of Killing
by K.A. Brown
(Available in Hardcover & Paperback)
The Cost of Killing: A Derrick Driver Novel, the second fictional book in his highly anticipated series. In Brown’s follow up to Programmed to Win: A Political Thriller, Derrick Driver, a Boston police detective presumed dead, seeks to exact revenge for his girlfriend’s murder on an untouchable billionaire with deep political connections who was first introduced in Brown’s debut novel.
“The Cost of Killing is an action filled, suspenseful thriller with undertones of the great distrust that people feel toward government,” said Brown, who served as a firefighter for 26 years and is known for exploring complex themes in his writing. “Readers will be drawn into a mysterious world fraught with dark figures intent on destroying the American way of life.”
The story picks up as the billionaire responsible for manipulating genetics to sway the voting scene in Programmed to Win attempts to use his influence once again to put his pawns in top government positions. Driver, his arch nemesis, seeks to make him pay for his actions and soon finds himself becoming a target of a secret, powerful group set to ruin the American political system.
“This clever second book in the series from master storyteller KA Brown is sure to surprise and captivate readers,” said Chris Schafer, CEO at Tactical 16 Publishing. “The story’s plotlines and deep connections to the real world of politics make for a tense and satisfying thrill ride!”

KA Brown delivers again! While I suggest reading Programmed to win first, The cost of killing definitely stands on its own. From the internal struggles of the characters to a plot and sub-plots that grab you and force you to hold while the unexpected twists and turns keep you guessing out to the finish. Read this book you wont regret it.

This book stands alone as a great read but is a seamless sequel to programmed to win. Readers are given a deeper view into the characters and their internal struggles and motivations. The plot carries this story forward while the intricate sup-plots lead you off into questioning everything. All together the book is not only a must read, it’s a can’t put down. Go on another thrill ride with Derrick Driver. You won’t regret it. I can’t wait for book 3!

This second book by KA Brown is a real page turner. The Cost of Killing captures your attention almost immediately reintroducing us to old characters while integrating new characters into the plot. The plot escalates and brings you into a familiar yet plausible plot. Another must read by KA Brown, it will not disappoint.
