Thriller author Mark Greaney stops by to talk about his newest, a standalone thriller ARMORED, and a little bit about The Gray Man series now that an adaptation is available on Netflix.

Mark talks about the research he did into Mexican cartels for this story, about traveling to the places that will feature in his stories to get a personal feel for them, about what led him to wanting to write thrillers and more.

ARMORED is available now from Berkley in hardcover, ebook and audiobook formats.
