Schrader was operating under their nose and they missed the signs.”

Raven nodded. “I suppose it’s a good thing.”

“Is it?”

“Until the next terrorist comes along.”

“I’m sure the president will make a wonderful speech taking credit for everything.”

Raven laughed without humor. “Yeah, if he can remain lucid enough.” He let out a heavy sigh. He sagged against the soft pillows propping him up.

“I’ll let you get some rest,” Macedo said. “We’ll be back in the Med in a day or so.”

“How many people died in the attacks, Greg?”

Macedo looked sad. “Too many.” He walked away.

Raven closed his eyes. He’d recover and live to fight another day. Tanya Jafari was dead, the Islamic Union with her, but they’d lost so much in the fight, he still felt a sense of defeat.

There was no victory. Only pain and regret. If he’d been a little sharper in the beginning, maybe the disaster could have been avoided. Or maybe he was fooling himself. Deep down, nothing would have stopped her plan. If she hadn’t reached out to him, she’d have found somebody else.

But now it was time to rest.

When he felt better, he decided to go to London and check on Misty Watson.

Perhaps together they could share some desperately needed R&R.

By Brian Drake

International adventurer Steve Dane never should have set foot in Italy.

Witnessing a young woman’s kidnapping, he is drawn into the decades-old vendetta behind the crime. Hired by the girl's father, racing against time as her life hangs in the balance, Dane battles the mafia who want him dead and the police and international agents who want him out of the way.

With the help of his lover, Nina Talikova, Dane plunges along a path leading him past a mere kidnapping and into an ever-more complex world of high stakes, ruled by a powerful and mysterious woman known only as The Duchess. Life, it seems, is getting cheaper than Dane could ever imagine and The Duchess has put a price on the ultimate weapon that will make it worthless. Only he and Nina have the power to stop a clock ticking away the life of both the girl and the world.

Steve Dane & Nina Talikova race around the world delivering justice one bullet at a time.

About the Author

A twenty-five year veteran of radio and television broadcasting, Brian Drake has spent his career in San Francisco where he’s filled writing, producing, and reporting duties with stations such as KPIX-TV, KCBS, KQED, among many others.  Currently carrying out sports and traffic reporting duties for Bloomberg 960, Brian Drake spends time between reports and carefully guarded morning and evening hours cranking out action/adventure tales.  A love of reading when he was younger inspired him to create his own stories, and he sold his first short story, “The Desperate Minutes,” to an obscure webzine when he was 25 (more years ago than he cares to remember, so don’t ask).  Many more short story sales followed before he expanded to novels, entering the self-publishing field in 2010, and quickly building enough of a following to attract the attention of several publishers and other writing professionals.  Brian Drake lives in California with his wife and two cats, and when he’s not writing he is usually blasting along the back roads in his Corvette with his wife telling him not to drive so fast, but the engine is so loud he usually can’t hear her.
