Languages : en
Pages : 277
Book Description
An army veteran with deep expertise in military and international affairs makes his fiction debut with this electrifying international thriller—the first volume in a blistering hot series in the tradition of Brad Thor, Tom Clancy, and Daniel Silva. In Shadow War, an elite American mercenary on a secret mission to save a businessman’s family in Eastern Europe must navigate perilous setbacks and deadly enemies that threaten to tip the balance of power between Russia and the United States. Tom Locke is an elite warrior working for Apollo Outcomes, one of the world’s most successful private contracting firms. Pulled out of a mission in Libya, he is tapped for an unusual and risky assignment: a top secret black op in Ukraine. He is given one week to rescue an oligarch’s family and pull off a spectacular assault that could have long-lasting repercussions for this imperiled Eastern European nation and the world. What Locke doesn’t know is that the operation comes with a dangerous complication: Brad Winters. Locke’s ambitious and enigmatic boss is engaged in a secretive, high-stakes geopolitical chess game with several influential powerbrokers in capitals around the world. One misstep could cost him—and Locke—everything. While Locke has methodically planned the mission and hand-picked a team of trusted operatives to pull it off—and save his ass if things go south—he doesn’t count on running into a former love, war correspondent Alie MacFarlane, who impulsively makes a move that risks both their lives. Locke is an intelligent, iconoclastic soldier who specializes in pulling off the impossible. But all his brilliant preparation can’t prevent the kind of backstabbing and deception that could lead to catastrophe . . . and tip the balance of power toward Putin’s Russia.

Swallowed By The Sea
Author: Sanjit Phukan
Publisher: Blue Rose Publishers
ISBN: 9356288925
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 78
Book Description
Unlike my actions, my words have never betrayed me and hence I hold them dear. They talk of nothing much as such, apart from pain, joy, despair, love, beauty, and anguish, which are the usual drugs of any artist. But unlike the falsely painted trappings of our modern earthly pursuits, they celebrate vulnerability. And this vulnerability does not hide behind indecipherable words of literature. It is out there, laid bare, waiting to be felt, without much need for interpretation or adulation. So, while the true meaning of art is always left for one to perceive, I do hope that these words help you find a bit of yourself in them too. If they do, I will take the liberty to sleep happy, letting this heart believe that while you and I may choose to disagree about most things in life, in art we found a common end.
