Description
"Some authors have walked in this terrain before, but few as convincingly or as terrifyingly!" - Amazon Hall of Fame Top 100 Reviewer "Rapid-fire action with thrills, spills and plot intrigue galore." - Readers' Favorite "Vic Watts has imagined not just the possible, but the probable. A riveting surge of realistic complications the National Command Authority must quickly resolve!" - General David L. Grange, 1st Special Forces Operational Detachment - Delta (ret.) Coordinated and sophisticated waves of terrorism explode across the US as a mysterious jihadist surfaces to take credit, promising more to come. The President is left with few options other than granting former SEAL Austin Murphy and his black ops team authority to do whatever it takes to stop the rising terror. But as they get closer to the truth, an even more powerful force arises that threatens to turn the entire geopolitical landscape upside down...and destroy Israel and the US in the process. Real-world events, military tactical detail, and opposing religions collide in this timely and prophetic thrill ride that is a new addition to the great spy and special ops tradition of Tom Clancy, Brad Taylor, Robert Ludlum, Lee Child, David Baldacci and James Patterson.

Vic Watts combines an academic background in history, psychology and an MBA with career experiences that have offered unique insights into national security, law enforcement, government, and the inner-workings of military special operations. As the former CEO of a personal protection & safety firm, he had the opportunity to gain extraordinary exposure to government officials within the Department of Homeland Security, Department of Defense, and Customs and Border Protection as well as several state and federal officials regarding the ever-evolving terrorist threat against the U.S.. An appointment by the NC Speaker of the House to the Criminal Justice Information Network Governing Board and the chance to work directly with Gen. David L. Grange, a former Delta Force Deputy Commander furthered this exposure to the complexities of national safety and security. Collectively these experiences have provided a background allowing dynamic elements of reality to be intertwined into his debut novel, ARMAGEDDON DAWNING - THE RISE OF KHARON.
