In an exclusive video interview with WorldAuthors.org, award-winning author and photographer Gary Smith sat down with Lucia to discuss his latest thriller, *More Than You Know*, the next gripping installment in his Warren Steelgrave mystery-adventure series.
True to the spirit of his first novel, The Willing, Smith’s protagonist, Steelgrave, finds himself entangled in a high-stakes investigation—this time involving a radicalized Middle Eastern hate group plotting a devastating bomb attack. The terrorists’ scheme is intricate and constantly shifting, with their true target remaining uncertain, as their hatred spans beyond a single religion.
Smith delves into Steelgrave’s unconventional alliances, which include the Italian national police, a powerful Mafia family, and a trusted FBI agent. Their covert collaboration is crucial to stopping the threat, though secrecy is paramount—especially given the crime family’s ruthless philosophy that “the end justifies the means.”
As always, Steelgrave’s sharp instincts help him stay one step ahead of the terrorists—until a momentary lapse leads to a brutal knife attack, leaving him near death. During his recovery, a brief but emotional reunion with his true love, Cindy O’Brien, adds another layer of depth to the story.
Fans of the series will find *More Than You Know* packed with suspense, unexpected twists, and the relentless action that has made Gary Smith’s Warren Steelgrave novels a must-read.
