Introducing a major new thriller writer—in the vein of Vince Flynn and Brad Thor—and an electrifying character, Dewey Andreas.
A major North American hydroelectric dam is blown up and the largest off-shore oil field in this hemisphere is destroyed in a brutal, coordinated terrorist attack. But there was one factor that the terrorists didn't take into account when they struck the Capitana platform off the coast of Colombia—slaughtering much of the crew and blowing up the platform—and that was the Capitana crew chief Dewey Andreas. Dewey, former Army Ranger and Delta, survives the attack, rescuing as many of his men as possible. But the battle has just begun.
While the intelligence and law enforcement agencies scramble to untangle these events and find the people responsible, the mysterious figure of Alexander Fortuna—an agent embedded into the highest levels of American society and business—sets into play the second stage of these long-planned attacks. The only fly in the ointment is Dewey Andreas—who is using all his long-dormant skills to fight his way off the platform, then out of Colombia and back to the U.S., following the trail of terrorists and operatives sent to stop him. Power Down is a gripping, compelling debut thriller from Ben Coes, a powerful new author, an amazing talent certain to join the ranks of the genre's finest writers.

Critic reviews
“Power Down is terrific! With a gripping story, compelling characters, a relentless pace and nerve-wracking suspense, Power Down is one of the must-read thrillers of the year. Don't miss this debut of novelist Ben Coes and the introduction of Dewey Andreas--you'll devour this one and wait anxiously for their return.” —Vince Flynn, New York Times bestselling author of Pursuit of Honor
“A ripping thriller from an exciting new novelist. Power Down kept me glued, turning the pages. Lots of action, a terrific hero, and a slimy villain--thrillers don't get any better.” —Stephen Coonts, New York Times bestselling author of The Disciple

This book was a real thriller at times. The narrator I felt read slowly so I listened to the entire book at 1.25 speed which went well and I enjoyed the book a lot better. a lot of characters to remember and switching back and forth but they were easy to keep track of.
great book for men and people who love politics

Loved Dewey and the complexity of the story. The plot was predictable but the development was awesome and surreal.Who was your favorite character and why?
Dewey. He is complex and interesting. His backstory is good and I look forward to the development of the character.Which scene was your favorite?
Weird, but the scene where he broke up the fight on the rig. I could feel his authority as I listened.Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Not really, but it kept me listening for sure.Any additional comments?
I look forward to seeing how his efforts to be out of the public eye serves him in future roles.Coes is a welcome addition to Thor, Clancy, Flynn
