Green Beret Dave Riley returns in this taut thriller set in the shadowy world of the federal witness protection program. Riley and police detective Donna Giannini, are asked to protect a friend whose life is in danger, and find themselves ensnared in the same web: Professional hit-men are stalking them, and the killers seem to know their every move. Bodies disappear; phones are tapped; computer programs are compromised. Who is behind it? Who can they trust? And how can they escape when they don't know who the enemy is? It leads from Chicago to an explosive climax high in the Smoky Mountains.
Kirkus Reviews. "Sinewy writing enhances this already potent action fix. An adrenaline cocktail from start to finish." Southern Book Trade. ""Clancy, Coonts and Brown might have the market cornered when it comes to hardware, but Mayer knows what all Infantry types will tell you: it's the soldier who makes all the difference. Fans of military action will eat this one up. Bob Mayer just keeps getting better and better."
