Every day, we hear about crises worldwide and wonder what our government is doing to keep us safe and prosperous. Reality is often very different from what we see on the news. I was lucky to serve as a senior State Department diplomat and witnessed how the American government machine reacts to wars, coups, and political upheavals. Insights from the inside gave me both comfort (about the high quality of US officials), fear (about how many serious threats we face), and exasperation (at how messy things often get). When I left government, I wanted to share some of those frustrations and found fiction was the best vehicle.
I love Palmer’s thrillers because he writes while he’s still working as a senior US diplomat.

This book is his first, a wild romp that also rings true to my experience inside the State Department.

This book plunged me into the world of special operations! Since the author has major military and law enforcement experience, in addition to a highly respectable list of books he’s penned, he was able to craft an action thriller with believable characters and realistic battle scenes. The stakes were high, and I really cared about what was going to happen to the hero.
