Just inside the Israeli-controlled West Bank, a sniper’s bullet ends an attempted terrorist infiltration, but Mossad agent Yochanan Ram suspects a greater threat when they discover the perpetrator carried a video disc of a horrific and public murder in the US.
The Mossad sends the video to the CIA, which turns it over to the FBI. FBI technicians uncover Arabic slogans within the video and conclude a terrorist cell is at work within the United States. The agency launches a discrete hunt to find the perpetrators before the American public becomes aware of the terrorist threat.
Meanwhile, Tarik Gomani, a Lebanese-born Hezbollah operative, resumes his deadly training at a criminal probation center in Houston, Texas. Gomani’s “rehabilitation program” arouses the suspicion of probation officer Scott Farrell, who is alarmed by his probationers’ increasingly violent behavior under Gomani’s care.
As Scott questions Gomani’s methods, the terrorist organization pressures Gomani to “hit a big target” before he is discovered. Once the FBI tracks the video to Houston, Scott teams up with federal investigators to thwart an attack on the White House’s national security advisor.

How is Writing In Your Genre Different from Others?
I believe the spy-thriller is a unique genre to some extent. It combines published history of the spy agencies, current events throughout the world, and the dire consequences that could plausibly occur if coordinated efforts are not made by real people to contain these issues. The people are real with everyday personal problems and the issues they encounter are believable, to include the antagonists.
What Advice Would You Give Aspiring Writers?
Don’t spend more time on writer’s websites and blogs than you do writing. Your knowledge of the industry will not write a book for you, and if you self-publish, use a professional editor and cover designer.
Author Bio:
I am a retired Lieutenant Colonel and aviator. I have worked for Dell, Inc. as a production and logistics manager and have flown in the oil fields of the Gulf of Mexico. I have also worked as a probation officer in Jefferson County, Texas. I currently live in Dripping Springs, Texas with my wife and spend my time writing, working at my church, and visiting my grandkids.
I have always enjoyed following the exploits of the CIA and even the foreign clandestine services. When I stumbled upon this type of memory technique that is described in THE TERRORIST MIND, I just added the intrigue involved if the technique was turned against the United States.
