William G. Boykin and Tom Morrisey | Fidelis Books
Author William G. Boykin and retired Lt. Gen. Tom Morrisey explore the radical Islamist threat in the terrorist thriller Danger Close, which imagines an al-Qaida intent on trumping itself with a more deadly attack on America.
After a successful tour in Afghanistan, Lt. Blake Crenshaw accepts a secret assignment from the CIA’s counterterrorism chief. He will switch places with an Anglo recruited into al-Qaida by Muslim clerics in prison.
Under this identity, he joins a D.C. sleeper cell and travels via London to a Pakistani training camp. There he learns of a nuclear device provided by North Korea for detonation near the Capitol and must escape before Predator drones take out the camp.
Throughout his ordeal, Blake, a devout Christian, must reconcile his faith with the life of deception and violence he must lead for a greater good-which adds a dimension of spirituality often missing from espionage thrillers. In addition, the authors’ attention to detail, particularly with military hardware, makes the story chillingly plausible.
