Synopsis:

In this incredible follow-up to the New York Times and USA TODAY bestseller FaceOff, twenty-two of the world's most popular thriller writers come together for an unforgettable anthology.

MatchUp takes the never-before-seen bestseller pairings of FaceOff and adds a delicious new twist: gender. Eleven of the world's best female thriller writers from Diana Gabaldon to Charlaine Harris are paired with eleven of the world's best male thriller writers, including John Sandford, C.J. Box, and Nelson DeMille. The stories are edited by #1 New York Times bestselling author Lee Child and feature:

-Lee Coburn and Joe Pickett in "Honor & ..." by Sandra Brown and C.J. Box
-Tony Hill and Roy Grace in "Footloose" by Val McDermid and Peter James
-Temperance Brennan and Jack Reacher in "Faking a Murderer" by Kathy Reichs and Lee Child
-Jamie Fraser and Cotton Malone in "Past Prologue" by Diana Gabaldon and Steve Berry
-Liz Sansborough and Rambo in "Rambo on Their Minds" by Gayle Lynds and David Morrell
-Jeffrey Tolliver and Joe Pritchard in "Short Story" by Karin Slaughter and Michael Koryta
-Harper Connelly and Ty Hauck in "Dig Here" by Charlaine Harris and Andrew Gross
-Regan Pescoli and Virgil Flowers in "Deserves to be Dead" by Lisa Jackson and John Sandford
-Lucan Thorne and Lilliane in "Midnight Flame" by Lara Adrian and Christopher Rice
-Bennie Rosato and John Corey in "Getaway" by Lisa Scottoline and Nelson DeMille
-Ali Reynolds and Bravo Shaw in "Taking the Veil" by J.A. Jance and Eric Van Lustbader

Review: Praise for FACEOFF

Praise for MATCHUP

"Highly recommended as entertainment, this anthology is a great place to start if you've not yet sampled some of these authors."--Publishers Weekly, starred review

"Even readers who don't love short stories will find this anthology, starring some of the world's best-known thriller writers and most-loved characters, appealing and varied....This box holds a chocolate or two that will be to everyone's liking."--Kirkus

"So good it demands a sequel."--Publishers Weekly

"A thriller reader's ultimate fantasy. How cool would it be if a pair of celebrated crime-fiction protagonists, the creations of different authors, teamed up together on a case, in a story jointly penned by the two writers? Even if it was just 1 pair, it would be pretty darn cool, but 11 pairs? Way cool. . . . Great fun for thriller fans."--Booklist

"A marvelous anthology. This innovative concept entertains as each author works in concert with another to deliver a story worth every word on the page."--RT Book Reviews, 4.5 Star Review

"Familiarity with the authors and their creations is a huge plus in reading this collection, but not knowing a particular character or writer should not be a deterrent. . . . Some great collaborations and stories."--The Associated Press

"An impressive accomplishment that celebrates the genre in both style and substance. Enthusiasts will dig it for what it is--an abundance of chills and thrills delivered by an inspired lineup of literary heavyweights--while casual readers just might be tempted to pick it up for the sheer novelty of it all. Regardless of motivation, they will find themselves turning pages late into the night. This just may be the optimal summer read."--Hartford Books Examiner

"A box of chocolates. You can start at one corner and methodically gorge yourself, or study the chart and pick out the caramels. With an anthology, you can start at page 1 and read through, or peruse the table of contents for favorite writers. If the anthology is good enough, it won't matter. And FaceOff is. In fact, it is brilliant. . . . The teaming up is what makes this anthology so special. It's a fair bet that fans will first turn to their favorite authors, but after devouring those stories, try the others. It is like a wonderful box of chocolates -- without the guilt."--The Newark Star-Ledger
