About the Book
"I love the name of honor, more than I fear
death." Julius Caesar
Jim Hayes lives a quiet life in Wisconsin, training in
martial arts and studying the warrior ethos. Unable to prevent the murder of
his wife six years earlier, Jim is determined that the next time he is called
upon to act, things will be different, and he can restore the sense of honor he
believes he has lost.
His estranged brother Mark, an Army colonel commanding a
firebase in the mountains of Afghanistan, sees his career winding down and
wonders what lies in store when he comes home. After years of dedicated service
to his country, he fears nothing else will measure up when he removes the
uniform for the last time.
In lawless Somalia, al Qaeda chieftain Yusuf Shalita, tired
of endless jihad, has decided to defect, in one last attempt at redemption. But
Shalita has only met one American he has ever trusted, so he tells the CIA he
will surrender himself to Jim Hayes, his old friend from their college days in
Wisconsin. That demand will bring the Hayes brothers back together in a way
they never imagined, as they fight to prevent a new and devastating terror
attack on the very heart of America.

The Author
David's Website / Twitter / Facebook
/ GoodreadsDavid Tindell was born in Germany and grew up in southern Wisconsin. Today he lives up in the northwestern corner of the state, in a log home on a lake with his wife Sue, their Yorkie and two cats. After a career in radio broadcasting, Tindell went to work for the US Government and resumed the writing career he'd started in college.
His first novel, "Revived", was published in 2000, but after that he put the pen aside for a time to train in the martial arts, earning a black belt in the Korean art of Taekwondo and instructor status in the Russian art of Systema. He currently trains in ryukudo kobujutsu, an art that combines karate with Okinawan weaponry. Like his protagonist in "The White Vixen", Tindell is a linguist, although not as accomplished as Jo Ann Geary; he's conversational in German and has also studied Italian and Russian.
