Description

Marine Captain Mac McKenzie and his loyal team of special ops warriors pull off the mission of a lifetime; the rescue of two American hostages being held by Muslim insurgents in Iraq. By Presidential decree Mac and his men are ordered to Washington D.C. to entertain an offer that would change each of their lives forever. Follow these four men as they embark on top secret missions, working alongside the Central Intelligence Agency. When Mac’s morals are called into question all hell breaks loose and the men are forced to disobey orders to save the lives of innocent civilians. This decision would come to haunt each of them as their lives become entangled in the middle of a government conspiracy that threatens both the national security and the integrity of the United States of America. Mac and his men must search for answers before time runs out and their ultimate showdown with destiny begins. For lurking in the shadows is an ancient evil that is speeding toward them like a locomotive. The Marines are assisted by Mac’s father retired General Robert McKenzie and a rural Sheriff’s deputy from Idaho. Nothing is as it seems and no one can be trusted. Brace yourself for a thrill ride of action and adventure, government conspiracies, and the horror of a creature that possesses the power to destroy all mankind.

Editorial Review

"The strength of the manuscript include the unpredictable plot, a cast of memorable characters, and the action sequences, both Mac and his team's missions and those involving the creature."

"The main characters carry the story nicely, and most of the minor characters contribute and give depth to the world of the novel."

"In the Becky narrative, you weave together the present action with her dream state and reminiscences very nicely and naturally. Many authors resort to formatting such as italicization (least desirable) or section breaks (sometimes useful), but you've managed to convey the shifts through the language and imagery alone. Well done."

It is a must read for anyone desiring to be entertained. Anyone who takes the time to read this book, will instantly become a fan."

 

"I sat down last Sunday morning to relax and read a book. What I got was a hair raising five hour ride. I could not put the book down. It was easy to read and kept me wanting more. I would read a J.E. Gallagher book anytime and anywhere. Well Done!"

"It is an incredible read, full of action, mystery, and very unpredictable. It is a must read for anyone. Very easy to read and was extremely enjoyable. It has everything a novel should contain. The author takes time to develop his characters in such a way that you fall in love with all of them. I would highly recommend this novel to anyone especially those with a military background."
