Description
In the third standalone globe-hopping thriller in the Executive Series, Present Morgan Taylor and Secret Service Agent Scott Roarke desperately try to prevent terrorist attacks on America's most valuable and vulnerable natural resource: Water.
"Moving at break-neck speed and nothing short of sensational. Grossman is a master storyteller who sets you up and delivers. Executive Command is not just a great book, it's a riveting experience!"-W.G. GRIFFITHS, award-winning and bestselling author of Methuselah's Pillar
The clock is ticking. Our nation's water resources are high on terrorist target lists but low on America's consciousness. Water sources are largely unprotected, providing open access to any enemy with chemicals and biotoxins.
So far we've been lucky. But that luck won't last.
This is the all-too-real-and-present danger facing President Morgan Taylor and Secret Service Agent Scott Roarke as they try to prevent terrorists from destroying America and its infrastructure city by city, state by state.
Fact-based in frightening detail, Executive Command is a political thriller that will leave you wondering the next time you pour a glass of water.
