See all titles by Andrew Peterson
Debut author Peterson kicks off a series in fine style with this complex and action-packed conspiracy thriller. Former CIA sniper Nathan McBride, called in to investigate the disappearance of an undercover FBI agent who happens to be the grandson of former FBI director Frank Ortega, tracks down two homegrown arms dealers/terrorists, Leonard and Ernie Bridgestone, who have a huge supply of Semtex explosive. When McBride kills one of their men, the Bridgestones retaliate by blowing up an FBI headquarters building in California.
As McBride chases them down, he discovers that what he thought was a clean-cut case of "catch the terrorist" is anything but, with corruption and twists that connect to Ortega and may involve McBride's own estranged senator father. Competent, intelligent, cool under pressure and romantically involved with FBI agent Holly Simpson, McBride is an extremely promising hero, and his adventures will be a big hit with thriller fans.
First To Kill by Andrew Peterson Reviewed by John
Every once in awhile we hear from a customer, telling us of the exciting novel
that they have just completed, and would I like to read it. Well . . . sure
send me a copy?
When I received Andy Peterson's (a long time friend of VJ
Books) first novel I was quite curious about comparison's to books by Steve
Hunter, and Lee Child, two of my favorites. I did read it, in fact couldn't
put it down. Nathan McBride, the hero of what promises to be an incredible
series, has it all, history, skills, attitude, strength, rugged-good looks, . .
. he even has his own helicopter! The bad guys are the baddest, the body-count
plentiful, the plot complex - with surprises at every turn. Thanks Andy, for a
thrill ride I truly didn't expect.
I know our customers avoid pbo's,
but I really want you to read Andy's book! If you like it as much as I did,
drop a line to his publisher telling them so, and ask that his next book be
released is hardcover! Also consider adding a review here.
