Description

When Toby Haynes witnesses a double murder-and suspects his boss, Tanner Mason, as the perpetrator of the crime-he does the only thing he can think of: he calls in Nathan McBride. CIA special ops veteran McBride and his partner, Harvey Fontana, respond to their friend's plea. As they launch a covert investigation into Mason, the security chief for one of the nation's leading private military contractors, they discover that not everything is as it appears. Mason and his inner circle are leading a top-secret operation to tackle a wave of crime plaguing the US-Mexican border, and the murder may have been part of their complicated strategy-or part of a more menacing agenda. Soon McBride and Fontana find themselves engaged in a deadly game. With a powerful politician behind it all, stopping Mason could mean joining a secret war-with truly global stakes.

About the Author
A native of San Diego, Andrew Peterson won his first pellet-gun shooting competition at a young age, launching an award-winning career in marksmanship where he earned the title of Master in the NRA's high-power rifle competition program. With an architectural degree from the University of Oklahoma, he began writing fiction as a hobby in 1990 and sold his first short story, "Mr. Haggarty's Stop," to San Diego Writers Monthly two years later. In 2008, the launch of his debut novel, First to Kill, allowed him the opportunity to visit VA hospitals around the country, and he's donated more than three thousand copies to wounded warriors and troops serving overseas. He and his wife, Carla, live in Monterey County, California.

Reviews
Praise for The Nathan McBride Series: "Andrew Peterson has created the most brutally effective thriller hero to appear in years. He handles a plot line like his hero might a well-oiled sniper rifle." - Ridley Pearson, author of Killer Weekend "Part Jack Reacher, part Jason Bourne, Nathan McBride is a compelling, conflicted hero." - Steve Berry, author of The Columbus Affair "McBride is an extremely promising hero... competent, intelligent, cool-under-pressure hero...his adventures will be a big hit with thriller fans." -Publishers Weekly "...Thriller readers will enjoy this fast-paced tale starring a wonderful hero whose escapades never seen to end." -The Mystery Gazette "Nathan McBride is a larger-than-life Rambo-type character, but he's no less believable than Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan." -The San Luis Tribune "Nathan McBride is a truly memorable protagonist whose sense of honor and loyalty take him down dark paths. The breakneck pace and pulse-pounding action herald the arrival of a major new find." -RT Book Reviews

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…
