The Devolution Trilogy: Book One

DEVOLUTION (Audiobook now available on Audible & iTunes)

Michael Dolan is a stoic perfectionist and former special operations pilot working a staff job at the Pentagon. After accepting an improbable CIA offer to help prevent impending terrorist attacks in Europe, Dolan finds that of the demons he must prevail against, the most terrible are those from within.


DEVOLUTION is book one of a psychological spy thriller series (The Devolution Trilogy) and was nominated for the 2020 IBPA Benjamin Franklin Award.


FROM THE AUTHOR:  Fans of Robert Ludlum’s The Bourne Identity will appreciate the internecine struggle and cryptic complexity of the protagonist, Michael Dolan, as will fans of Tom Clancy’s Patriot Games who savor a page-turner about an unlikely spy thrust into adversity, only to emerge the strongest and most capable of them all. 


When I began writing The DEVOLUTION Trilogy I wanted to create a story where the depth and complexity of the main character, Michael Dolan, were just as compelling and important as the plot. As spy thrillers go, this series has everything readers of the genre crave: action, suspense, cliffhangers and mystery. What makes the story so unique (and that much more captivating), however, is Dolan's dark and labyrinthine psychological struggle as he navigates the challenges of his top - secret missions while confronting the demons of his past.  


"A singular, thrilling, and insightful debut novel with an even more impressive sequel. Michael Dolan is one of the deepest characters I've seen in this type of fiction."

  • U.S. Ambassador Luis Moreno


"Seat-of-your pants thriller...refreshingly different...and hard to put down."

  • DIANE DONOVAN, THE MIDWEST BOOK REVIEW


"Casey's frank and realistic interplay among the principals draws you into a complicated plot about believable challenges, both in the field and inside the walls of counterintelligence operations. His craftsmanship is evident as the plot progresses until the tension becomes too fervent to put aside."

  •  JAMES WHITE, author of Borders in Paradise 


"Highly Recommended Spy Thriller!"

  • ELIZABETH GAUFFREAU, Author of TELLING SONNY


"Devolution will keep you on the edge of your seat."

  • RICHARD WISE, Author of REDLINED and THE FRENCH BLUE
