Under Pressure Summary

Under Pressure: a page-turning action FBI thriller featuring astrophysicist Dr Lucas Page by Robert Pobi

'Told at a ferocious pace in staccato prose, this thriller truly gets the blood racing' Daily Mail on City of Windows

A series of deadly explosions rock the city of New York and with too many victims and no known motive, the FBI turns once again to Dr Lucas Page.

On a calm New York evening, an explosion shatters through the Guggenheim Museum, killing hundreds. The attack is planned and meticulous, suggesting the many casualties might be hiding a specific target. Only one man has the extraordinary mind to assist with the case.

Retired FBI agent-turned-astrophysicist Dr Lucas Page has a unique perspective on the mathematical planning behind the attack. And when a second bomb rocks the city, Lucas thinks he sees a pattern - but it's not the one the police are pursuing.

Lucas must trust his instincts to find and stop the killer - before countless more lives are lost...

Praise for City of Windows:

'I loved this' Lee Child

'A page-turner painted in soaring prose' Gregg Hurwitz

'It can only be a matter of time before Netflix makes Mr Pobi an offer he can't refuse, this is a series that has all the ingredients to run and run' Shots Magazine

Pulse-racing brilliance * Peterborough Telegraph *
Reviews for City of Windows * - *
CITY OF WINDOWS is that rarest of gems - a page-turner painted with soaring prose that makes you want to read every sentence twice. In Dr Lucas Page, Robert Pobi has created a unique and modern protagonist...He'll be back and so will I. * Gregg Hurwitz, Sunday Times bestselling author of Orphan X *
* A tough, wise, knowing narrative voice, a great plot, a great setting, and even better characters - I loved this. * Lee Child, Sunday Times bestselling author of the Jack Reacher series *
Relevant, smart and action-packed, CITY OF WINDOWS is The Day of the Jackal for Trump's America. * Chris Brookmyre *
CITY OF WINDOWS is a white knuckle ride hurtling along at breakneck speed. A beautifully plotted thriller, but the best thing of all is its lead character. With Dr Lucas Page Robert Pobi has created one of the most fascinating and unique protagonists since Jeffery Deaver's Lincoln Rhyme. * Martin Waites *
A stunner. One of the most impressive, compelling thrillers I've read in a long while. The plot moves at bullet velocity. The writing has an electric surge. Robert Pobi delivers a fresh, exciting new voice to thriller fiction. * David Morrell, author of Murder As a Fine Art *
A thrilling page turner with a unique and fascinating hero in Lucas Page. The narrative whips by at breakneck page and the plotting is smart and tense. * Rob Reynolds *
Author Pobi and Character Page are even on the strength of this first outing shaping up to be the new dream team for fans of high concept thrillers. It can only be a matter of time too before Netflix make Mr Pobi an offer he can't refuse, this is a series that has all the ingredients to run and run. * Shots Magazine *
Pobi's punchy prose bowls along breaking all the speed limits. * Sunday Times Crime Club *
Pobi keeps the pages turning. * Shots Magazine *
Pulsating. * Sunday Times Culture *
Fanfare of trumpets please ... a thriller star is born. One with gripping storytelling fire power. Pobi draws you into a hair-trigger plot. * Peterborough Telegraph *
Told at a ferocious pace in staccato prose, this thriller truly gets the blood racing. * Daily Mail *
An absolute corker of a thriller. * Irish Independent *
By the time the cranky, but loveable Page solves the who and the how, I suspect he'll have established himself as your new favourite sleuth. * Sunday Express S Magazine *

About Robert Pobi

Robert Pobi is an internationally bestselling novelist whose work has been published in more than fifteen countries. He spends the summer months in a cabin in the mountains, and when he's not writing at a desk once owned by Robert Calvi, he fishes for everything that swims - from great white sharks off Montauk to the monstrous pike of northern Finland. He collects early twentieth century American art, listens to a little too much Motorhead, and doesn't do Twitter.
