The secret terrorist organization that came within a heartbeat of installing its agent as President of the United States in Executive Actions is back with a new—and deadlier—plot to destabilize the U.S. government. It all begins with what appears to be a simple mugging and murder of a female White House staffer. Secret Service agent Scott Roarke discovers the truth: that the murder was committed by his secret nemesis, the mysterious assassin who had managed to always stay one step ahead of him during the presidential campaign. This time Roarke has found clues about the assassin's past that give him the tools he needs to hunt the hunter, but the clues can only go so far. Roarke needs all his skill, and a huge amount of luck as well, if he's going to catch his quarry.

Dwight Zimmeran is right!,
By Chris Beakey "Chris" (Lewes, Delaware and Washington, DC) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Executive Treason: A Novel (Hardcover)
Dwight Zimmerman's comments about Gary Grossman's writing and storytelling talents are absolutely right. It's inevitable that Mr. Grossman will be compared to other writers in this genre, but he has a special ability to make characters and plots disturbingly, frighteningly real. You begin his books knowing they're fiction, but within a few pages you're living through something that's so believable that it feels like fact. True -- you're definitely "escaping" with a great read, but the quality of the writing requires absolutely no "suspension" of disbelief. You can't go wrong with his work.
