A big step above the average thriller.

[Mike Owens · Rating 5 out of 5]

Aaron Monroe might be considered a lunch-pail kind of guy; he takes his job with him wherever he goes. Even on vacation in Europe with the woman of his dreams, the beautiful Sarah Nejem, he takes a day off to bump off two high-ranking ISIS officers who have strayed into his territory. He completes his mission quickly enough, but there's a catch; he discovers a group of young female captives, being held by ISIS. The information he gathers will lead him on a global hunt to unravel a vast conspiracy in human trafficking that leads to unexpected levels in our own government.
The thriller fan will find much to like here. There is action and intrigue to suit the most demanding reader, and the writer includes an abundance of specific detail about armaments, vehicles and setting to bring the story to life.
Should be high on the list for those who like fast-paced action. Highly recommended.
