Mailbox Mondays

Mailbox Monday is on tour, with October’s location being at Savvy Verse & Wit.

Okay, so technically I’m cheating this week. I didn’t have anything arrive in my mailbox, but I did buy three new books at Wal-Mart. **BAD TARA!**

 A hydroelectric dam blows up and the largest off-shore oil field in the hemisphere is destroyed, killing legions of Americans and bringing the country’s largest energy company to its knees. Among the survivors lies a mysterious oil platform worker and America’s best hope for retribution: Dewey Andreas, a former Army Ranger and Delta who is dead-set on following the trail of the terrorists. As intelligence and law enforcement agencies scramble to untangle the Capitana disaster and unearth those responsible, the mysterious figure of Alexander Fortuna – an agent embedded into the highest levels of American society and business – sets into play the next of many long-planned assaults on the U.S. economic infrastructure. Now it’s up to Dewey to put a stop to him … before it’s too late.

 Called on by family friend and government bigwig Earl Parker to chaperone Tillman Davis from Southeast Asia to D.C., Gideon will rely on his peerless tactical skills. But when the hand-off goes awry and Parker is taken hostage, Gideon must evade hostile locals in war-torn Mohan to make his way to a multimillion-dollar oil rig that has been seized by Tillman’s terrorist faction. With the help of rig manager Kate Murphy, Gideon has 48 hours to bring in the man he once called his brother – before a twisted global conspiracy turns deadly.

 Buried within the black ops budgets of the Department of Defense, a newly created spy agency reports only to a secret panel of military insiders. Its job is to target America’s enemies – both foreign and domestic – under a charter of three simple words: Find, Fix, and Finish. When a bombing in Rome kills a group of American college students, the evidence points to a dangerous colleague from Harvath’s past. Tasked with leveraging this relationship to lure the man out of hiding, Harvath must destroy him. But what if it is the wrong man? In Chicago a young woman is struck by a taxi in a hit-and-run, and the family’s attorney uncovers a shocking connection to the Rome bombing. Harvath must link together the disparate violence, and race to prevent one of the most audacious and unthinkable acts of war in the history of mankind.
