Publisher Description

Barely into his twenties and already a highly decorated military hero, Army Special Forces veteran Blake Kershaw is now going to college, studying while recuperating from wounds received in Afghanistan, and planning to reenter the army as an officer after graduation. But life tosses Blake a curve when his country approaches him about using his special skills to avert a terrorist plot to detonate a nuclear device in a major eastern US city. To do that, he would need to become an operative deep within al-Qaeda’s innermost circles—changing his entire identity, even his face. A true patriot, Blake makes the journey into a shadow world that leaves friends, family, and, seemingly, even God far behind. But when things go terribly wrong, and his country looks set to destroy him, it is God and God’s people who intervene.

"A Christian undercover agent who actually prays and looks to God for help in times of need. He must also reconcile "evil" acts that he must participate in to remain undercover with his service to God. I liked the book and will encourage my kids to read it."

— Darin (5 out of 5 stars)

Quotes

  • “A hair-raising international military suspense thriller…The novel offers a fascinating, even sympathetic look into the brotherhood behind radical terrorism while showing how an operative narrowly stays alive to thwart disaster…A vivid portrayal of spy work and the inner workings of a terror cell.”

    — Publishers Weekly
  • “[An] absorbing and fast-paced narrative…[A] remarkable book.”

    — Lt. Gen. Samuel V. Wilson, US Army (Ret.), former director of the Defense Intelligence Agency

    " Great book written by one of the original members of Delta. Though a novel it lays things out the way they are and the way they actually happen. I highly recommond it. "

    " A thought provoking exploration of the "grater good" in the world of terrorism and espionage. A little far fetched with the use of plastic surgery "face off" premise but a good read. "
