A police officer opens fire on fans in a stadium. And at CIA headquarters, a Deputy Director goes on a murderous rampage. The perpetrators appear to be American—but they are covert agents in a vast network of terror, selected and trained for one purpose only: the complete annihilation of America. Special Agent Jericho Quinn has seen the warning signs. As a classified “instrument” of the CIA reporting directly to the president, Quinn knows that these random acts of violence pose a clear and present danger. But Quinn may not be able to stop it. The search for terrorists has escalated into an all-out witch hunt.

Book excerpt: Your Next Breath is an explosive thriller from New York Times bestselling author Iris Johansen Catherine Ling is one of the CIA's most prized operatives. Raised on the streets of Hong Kong, she was pulled into the agency at the age of fourteen. If life has taught her anything, it is not to get attached, but there are two exceptions to that rule: her son Luke and her mentor Hu Chang. Luke was kidnapped at age two, and now, nine years later, he has astonishingly been returned to her. Catherine vows never to fail him again. Now, just as she is building a relationship with Luke, it seems that someone from Catherine's past is playing a deadly game with her, and using those she cares about as pawns. Three are dead already: the former prostitute who helped Catherine when she was out on the street, a CIA agent with whom she worked closely, and the informant who helped her free Luke. Someone is picking off the people Catherine cares about one by one, with the circle narrowing closer and closer to those she loves the most. Catherine has made many enemies throughout her life, and she has no choice but to weed through her past to find out who is targeting her now, and then go after the vicious killer herself.

This book was released on 2016-09-29 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the stunning novel Hijacking of the American Presidency, a disaffected faction of a major evangelical religious group seeks to put its own man in the White House, allowing it the ability to launch a preemptive nuclear strike on nations believed to be the future enemy of America. To accomplish this, they are willing to assassinate political figures, including the sitting president. Disillusioned and fed up with what they consider the Twiddle-Dum, Twiddle-Dee syndrome of Washington politics, which has led to a never-ending dysfunctionality and the erosion of America’s ethical and moral foundation, this ultra-conservative splinter group has picked the perfect candidate for the White House. The group is prepared to subvert the Constitution of the United States and assassinate anyone in its way to achieve its divine mandate. In a plot that includes the manipulation of the nation’s leading scientists in nano-technology, the subversives plan to deliver time-delayed poisons to those in opposition. Faced with such an unprecedented threat, the religious unit of the Department of Homeland Security Anti-Terrorism Task Force has been called on to thwart the plot.

Download or read book A Meal to Die For written by Joseph R. Gannascoli and published by Forge Books. This book was released on 2006-11-28 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Benny Lacoco is a "food fence". A load of frozen shrimp falls off of a truck, or perhaps a few cases of olive oil or some nice expensive wine with an unpronounceable name comes into your possession, Benny is the guy who can move it for you. No questions asked. He's well connected and a man of respect. But there is another side to Benny. He's a gourmet cook who once aspired to be a renowned restaurateur...but business (and other matters equally unsavory) got in the way. Now Benny has been summoned to cook a special meal for some of his associates on the occasion of the big man being sent up the river. This gives Benny the chance to prepare the meal of his life, A MEAL TO DIE FOR, because word has it that someone in their midst is a rat, and some things just can't be forgiven. From the abundant antipasto of chicken liver mousse, prosciutto wrapped asparagus, grilled sardines, and other delicacies to the creamy delight of crayfish bisque, three types of pasta, and main entrees of roasted lamb, baked snapper, and chicken with artichokes and sausage, we are treated to flashbacks of Benny's life in a novel that blends the best of Big Night with Goodfellas. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All four books in James Quinn's 'The Redaction Chronicles', a series of cold war espionage novels, now in one volume! A Game For Assassins: It's the early 1960's - the height of the Cold War - and agents of the British Intelligence are being targeted by an unknown team of assassins. In desperation, the agency sends in their best agent to hunt down the killers. Jack "Gorilla" Grant isn't your typical secret agent. Uncompromising and rough-edged, he doesn't fit in with the elitist and debonair intelligence agents. Soon, Jack is drawn into a deadly game where nothing is as it seems, and even the perfect spy can die in a wilderness of mirrors. Sentinel Five: The Chief of the Secret Intelligence Service has been assassinated, and the British government brought to its knees by a terrorist organization intent on unleashing a weapon of apocalyptic proportions. In desperation, a deniable team is assembled to hunt down the terrorists. Called back from obscurity to lead them is Jack “Gorilla” Grant, a freelancer with a Smith & Wesson’ 39 and cut-throat razor, who is ready to even the score in his own brutal fashion. But in game where power players, traitors and terrorists work hand in hand, the most serious threats sometimes come from within. The Sentinel Five team turns their gunsights to the East, to Asia, and enter a killing ground of death. Rogue Wolves: He is known as The Master. Spy, double agent, freelance assassin. He has been at the top of his game for the past thirty years, and worked for Nazis, Communists, Intelligence agencies and terrorists alike. No one knows his true identity, and the intelligence networks of several countries want him captured, interrogated and “Redacted”. Jack “Gorilla” Grant, now a contract agent for the French Secret Service, is assigned the job of tracking the Master down. Hot on his heels is an equally deadly and beautiful CIA bounty hunter, who is more than capable of hunting down both assassins. From France to the heartland of America and finally to a death island off the coast of Mexico, Rogue Wolves takes the anti-hero Gorilla Grant into the deepest heart of espionage darkness. Berlin Reload: When Jack “Gorilla” Grant's daughter is kidnapped in Rome, it is just the opening gambit in a series of events that pushes him back into the “Redaction” business that he once walked away from. Unseen forces are moving against Gorilla and dangerous enemies from his past are threatening his future, intent on turning a cold war into a hot war. But Gorilla has one rule; don’t mess with my family. And he’s willing to kill to enforce it. From the dangerous streets of 1960’s Berlin to a hit contract in Austria, and finally to a race against time in East Germany, Berlin Reload is an epic cold war spy story that spans the rise and fall of the Berlin Wall, and throws James Quinn’s anti-hero Gorilla Grant into a mission where he may have to decide between the life of his daughter and the dawning of a new conflict between East and West.
