"Chillingly authentic...a riveting tale only a true insider could
tell...cunningly plotted and richly detailed with off-the-books
tradecraft, this will be the go-to novel for intelligence
professionals and special operators: a noteworthy debut!" --RALPH
PETERS, Fox News Strategic Analyst and author of Cain at
Gettysburg"Captain Chris Teller is a skilled and experienced
intelligence professional who doesn't always follow the rules. But
he may be our best chance of stopping a bunch of bad guys so
vicious they make Al Qaeda look good. Shaffer is a professional who
understands how the military and intelligence agencies work - and
sometimes don't work. What they do and how they do it is an
important part of this great story." --LARRY BOND"Shaffer combines
more than 25 years of experience in the intelligence community with
a background in the military, and the authenticity shows in his
first novel. ... With just one book, Shaffer and Keith have added
another must-follow hero for fans of covert-ops thrillers by Dalton
Fury, Vince Flynn, and Brad Taylor. Teller can be a bit of a
callous jerk at times, but what he lacks in subtlety, he more than
makes up for in a kind of Jack Reacher instinct for taking the
right action at the right time." --Booklist
