Treason

by Rick Campbell

In Rick Campbell’s newest thriller, a military coup in Russia leads to a swift invasion of former Soviet territories—while the U.S. has been rendered powerless to respond. In Russia, the military is anxious to assert its military strength and regain its role as a superpower. The Russian President refuses to greenlight a bold plan to disable American strategic nuclear capability and retake Ukraine and the Baltic States, fearing the potential consequences of involving nuclear weapons. But the generals won't have it and at the first opportunity, they overthrow the president in a military coup. Then they use a narrow window to initiate their bold plan—the Zolotov option—which will render all of America's B2 bombers and ballistic missiles useless. With the U.S. off the board, they swiftly invade Ukraine with an overwhelming force, an invading Army that even NATO can't hope to resist. Now, it's game on. Without their primary weapons, the U.S. has to find a way to fight back on multiple fronts. If they're to have any chance, they'll have to overcome the malware that has grounded their ballistic missiles and planes, as well as secretly land a SEAL team to help rescue the imprisoned Russian President, and help retake control from the forces that are driving Europe into a continental war. Rick Campbell, one of the finest young military thriller writers, returns with his biggest and boldest novel to date.

Treason: A Novel (The Major Brooke Grant Series #2)

by Newt Gingrich Pete Earley

Leading politician and bestselling author Newt Gingrich and novelist Pete Earley are back with another gripping international thriller. THE WORLD'S MASTER TERRORIST, known only as the Falcon, has infiltrated Washington's highest corridors of power, threatening the very existence of our democracy in this realistic tale of modern day TREASON. Major Brooke Grant has been waging war against terrorism since her parents were murdered during 9/11, keenly aware that her enemy transcends borders. But a coordinated attack on the president at the funeral of a Washington power broker leads her to a terrifying revelation: the enemy is closer than she'd ever imagined and is hiding in plain sight. The Falcon has gained a weapon no terrorist has ever wielded before: an American-born traitor burrowed inside the U.S. government itself. TREASON is a story of a nation fighting for its life not only against outside threats but also against an internal threat-a fanatical jihadist who uses liberty as a shield while trying to destroy the civilization created in its image. Major Grant's deadly chess match with the Falcon turns personal when he issues a fatwa against her and those she loves. Can she unmask the traitor and stop the Falcon's most skilled assassin sent to kill her before he strikes? Or will she fall victim to betrayal by a false friend in this gripping tale of treachery, courage, and ultimately patriotism where good battles evil? Only Newt Gingrich, who brings decades of experience in national security and politics to bear in his collaboration with journalist Pete Earley, can spin such a vivid mix of reality and fiction, daring readers to guess where the line between the two is crossed.

As the mortally wounded man's life slips away, so too does the information Pitt desperately needs.

Meanwhile, Pitt's supervisor, the formidable Victor Narraway, finds himself accused of embezzling government funds. With Pitt incommunicado in France, Narraway turns to Pitt's clever wife, Charlotte, for help. The man who badmouthed Narraway and ruined his career with innuendo can be found in Ireland--so Charlotte agrees to pose as Narraway's sister and accompany him to Dublin to investigate. But unknown to Pitt and Narraway, a shadowy plotter is setting a trap that, once sprung, could destroy not just reputations but the British empire itself.From the Hardcover edition.

Treasure for Treasure

by Justin Scott

A partly-constructed tunnel under the East River is not the place one would expect to be the scene of world-shattering events, fame, fortune, lights, camera ... ACTION. Dick Creegan, sandhog, didn't expect to find it there either. Until he took a look at some funny looking rocks. He should have looked the other way because those "rocks" were the beginning of: --a conspiracy of sandhogs against the combined forces of the government of the City of New York --a dazzling debut of amateur crooks and unexpected new careers --a race between a tugboat and a Volkswagen --the heisting of a smuggled treasure which is in turn moved away by ship, covered by blacktop, uncovered, re-heisted and ... invested. In Treasure for Treasure, Justin Scott has given us another wildly funny story of what happens when the Devil whispers into the ears of good, ordinary New York citizens-- in this case Dick Creegan and bulky friends, his girl Jeannie with her acting career and her incredibly large animal companion, Howard, and some of the many and fatal friends pursuing them after they strike their own waterlogged Treasure of the Sierra Madre. This is a story of love, courage, true grit and incredible bumbling. Once again, readers across the country will find confirmation of what they so ardently believe -- that in New York the Devil is only as far away as the nearest subway.
