"A sharply rendered thriller...Williams delivers a polished story with a hardboiled edge, lively action, and plenty of intrigue." - The BookLife Prize  "Intense, compelling, and relentless. Failure Point is a book that is just itching to be adapted for the big screen and will keep you turning the pages until the very last one." -Mike McGrale, screenwriter, The Following, CSI: Miami "The darker aspect of love challenges the darkest aspect of human nature with our nation's sovereignty at stake in this rollercoaster-paced story. Strap in for Failure Point's chilling ride of mounting suspense that leaves you gasping at the ride's end." -Parris Afton Bonds, New York Times bestselling author "What do you get when you mix crackling prose, a propulsive plot, and unflinching insights into human relationships? Failure Point, that's what, the latest political thriller by Doug Williams. And those are only a few of the novel's delicious ingredients. One taste, and you're hooked." -Ona Russell, novelist, educator, and host of Literary Hub's "Authors in the Tent" "Smart, edgy, compelling, and filled with a wealth of trap doors and misdirection, Failure Point makes for an exciting read you can't put down." -Wayne Slaten, award-winning screenwriter and director, F.64 Films "It's an understatement to say how each chapter propelled me to the next with a truly undeniable momentum. Calling it a page-turner doesn't do it justice. So many hooks and twists! The characters were so deftly drawn that I only wanted more, and the writer's authority on this material, and the wider world, made me feel in the care of a master-one who'd rip me in two a few times before the last page. Failure Point well-earns its classification as a thriller." -David DeWitt, former editor and critic, the New York Times "Impossible to put down-and what an ending!" -Johnny Carrabba, author of With Gratitude and A Gift from the Heart
