Executive Treason

The author has hit it out of the park with his second excellent novel. Everything said in a positive note is true. But will we see a sequel? It has been three years since this book was published.......what a loss!

This book proved to be an excellent follow up to "Executive Actions".In what looks like a robbery-attempted rape a white house staffer is killed.After an investigation it appears the she is a deep cover for Israel.Our hero Scott Roark,recognizes the killer's style to be the elusive assassin that he has been pursuing.Roark finally discovers clues from the assassins past to discover his identity. In the meantime the administration is reeling from another crisis.President Henry Lamden suffers a near fatal heart attack and Vice-President Morgan Taylor has to become the acting President.The White House stays under attack from talk show host Elliott Strong.He is trying to make General Robert Woodley Bridgeman the populist nominee for President and Speaker of the House Duke Patrick the Vice-Presidential nominee. Air Force One is sabotaged and crashes near a terrorist base in Indonesia.President Morgan and several key figures in the Administration are held hostage by the terrorists. This is an exciting book that has many exciting situations.I certainly enjoyed reading it.The ending allows the book to finish with a bang.

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.

I just powered through Gary Grossman's riveting new book - I thoroughly enjoyed it and in fact could not put it down! I found it well written and suspenseful with interesting and compelling characters, terrific plot and a great set-up for book #3 - which I'm thankful for, as I can hardly wait for the next installment! Grossman captures the genre of political hriller like no other author today. My big question is: when we can expect to see the movie version?
