Into a Dark Frontier [Paperback]

Into a Dark Frontieris cut from the same cloth as the best of Vince Flynn and Brad Thor. James Rollins

In the near future, Africa collapses into an enormous failed state, leaving the continent lawless and severely depopulated. For most, the breakdown brings horror, but for othersthe outcast, the desperate, the criminal, and the insaneit allows unparalleled opportunity: a new frontier of danger and unlimited possibility.

In America, ex-Navy SEAL Slade Crawford, emotionally crippled after twenty years of front line combat, the dissolution of his marriage, and the accidental death of his son, is falsely accused of terrorism. Slade flees to Africa to build a new life and escape his past, but he is captured by an enigmatic American colonel, Gary Kraven, and blackmailed into tracking down a blood cult that is rampaging across the sub-Sahara. Struggling to stay alive and to free himself from Kravens grasp, Slade pursues the cult across the lawless African frontier. He soon learns that nothing is as it seems and that he is standing at the epicenter of a global struggle that will determine the course of history. Slade must decide whether to fight for his life or his honorhe can't have both.

With endorsements from David Morrell, James Rollins, and Steve Berry, this thriller about the near-future collapse of the African state brings to mind Leon Uris'sArmageddonand Mark Bowden'sBlack Hawk Down. Fans of military-style thrillers will appreciate the Rambo-like, emotionally damaged, ex-SEAL protagonist particularly if they are avid readers of Lee Child's Jack Reacher and David Baldacci's Will Robie and John Puller series.
