About the book

A deadly game. The ultimate price. The Chain meets Squid Game meets Emily the Criminal in this pulse-pounding new thriller from the master of the moral dilemma, Jack Jordan. 

SOON TO BE ADAPTED FOR TV!

‘The most tense book I’ve ever read. Instantly gripping, utterly addictive’ 
ANDREA MARA
‘A blistering, nerve shredding thriller … Electrifying'
 JOHN MARRS
‘A top-tier thriller. High-concept and brilliantly written … I could not stop turning the pages!’ 
C. M. EWAN
‘A thriller that reads like the plot of an action movie but with a thumping emotional heart’ 
NIKKI SMITH

Emma and Miles are out of options. Their son needs life-saving transplant surgery, but in a world of privatised healthcare and impossible costs, they can’t afford it.

Then comes the offer: a shadowy syndicate known only as The Levels promises them the exact amount of money they need. All they must do is complete a series of tasks.

The catch? Each task is a crime. With every level the stakes rise, the payout grows and the line between right and wrong blurs.

But Emma and Miles aren’t the only ones playing this deadly game. As the competition intensifies and they struggle under the weight of their choices, they’re faced with the ultimate question:

How far would you go to save the one you love?

More praise for Deception and Jack Jordan…
’Another jaw-dropping masterpiece … Read this and then read them all. You won’t regret it.' 
MATTHEW BLAKE
'I binged it in two sittings, like a favourite, high-concept Netflix thriller’ 
HANNAH RICHELL
‘Jack Jordan turns parental love into a weapon ― and doesn’t let go’ 
CAROLINE MITCHELL
‘No one crafts a dilemma quite like Jack Jordan’ 
JANICE HALLETT
‘Jack Jordan goes from strength to strength’

About the Author

Jack Jordan

Jack Jordan is the global number one bestselling author of Anything for Her (2015), My Girl (2016), A Woman Scorned (2018), Before Her Eyes (2018) and Night by Night (2019). His latest thriller, Do No Harm, was an instant Times bestseller and shortlisted for the Most Recommended Book in the DeadGood Reader Awards. Coined the thriller of the summer for 2022, it was described as “relentlessly tense” by Sunday Times Bestseller Lesley Kara, and “Chilling and perfectly paced” by New York Times Bestseller Sarah Pearse. The idea for Do No Harm came to Jack after undergoing a minor medical procedure where he had to be sedated and trust strangers with his welfare. After the anaesthesia wore off, Jack began scribbling his notes, wondering to himself just how iron-clad a surgeon’s oath is, and what it would take to break it…

His latest book Conviction was published in June 2023.
