Description

Cavanaugh, a former member of Delta Force who now works as a protector for those rich enough to afford him and his team, is hired by a brilliant scientist named Prescott who needs protection from a powerful drug lord seeking the highly addictive drug he has invented. At least, that is what Cavanaugh is led to believe. After Cavanaugh trains the scientist in escape and evasion, the unthinkable occurs: Cavanaugh s team is viscously attacked and entirely wiped out and Prescott seems to be in collusion with the attackers. Now Cavanaugh must fight against his own tactics and anticipate his enemy s every move while suffering the consequences of the real secret Prescott is hiding: a unique weapon that induces fear.

Reviews

There are plenty of twists, several impressive action set pieces and a narrative that speeds like the souped-up Taurus...that Cavanaugh likes to drive Publishers Weekly 21/4/03 - Publishers Weekly
