3 posts | 5 read | 5 to read
In March of 2002, while the eyes of the world focused on Afghanistan, Jack Noble finds himself on the outskirts of Baghdad, Iraq. A Marine in name only, Jack is on-loan to the CIA. Normally an integral part of the team, he finds that he is nothing more than a security detail in Iraq. Jack and his partner Bear have a run-in with four CIA special agents over the treatment of an Iraqi family. Within hours Jack and Bear are detained. All Jack wanted was to finish his enlistment and move on with his life. All he did was intervene and save a family from unwarranted violence at the hands of four CIA agents. But he soon discovers that he did far more than intervene. He has placed himself dead square in the middle of a conspiracy that reaches the highest levels of the U.S. government. This fast-paced political crime thriller by USA Today bestselling author L.T. Ryan will leave you burning through the pages as Jack races to stop the conspiracy before it claims his life.

This is a fast-paced action book along the lines of a Jack Reacher story. A seemingly good, highly trained soldier & his partner on the run without any idea why. Just trying to stay one step ahead of being killed.

A Marine assigned to guard CIA operatives in Iraq after 9/11, Jack Noble and his partner, Bear, soon find themselves framed for the murder of an Iraqi family. After they are freed from the brig by their commanding officer, they are followed and attacked. As they try to piece together the puzzle, the body count continues to climb. Approached with reasonable expectations, it‘s a serviceable thriller. Although Jack seems a little too good to be true.
