First to Kill

Suspense | Thriller Police Procedural

Former Marine and CIA operative Nathan McBride has quit the game. He's a civilian now. He and his business partner own a security firm, and Nathan is very hands-on with his work. When the son of a Federal agent disappears, McBride is pulled back in by the Feds to help track down two domestic terrorists.

Brothers, Ernie and Leonard Bridgestone are a nasty pair and have an ax to grind. Nathan locates the brothers and the explosives they've stolen, but the game isn't over yet. His investigation has taken an unexpected turn, and it's beginning to look like it's about ready to blow up in Nathan's very surprised face.

FIRST TO KILL is fast-paced and written to keep you on the edge of your seat. Even the unnecessary romance doesn't slow it down. Peterson should make a big splash in the men's adventure market.

SUMMARY

When you’re the best at what you do, it’s not always easy to walk away. Nathan McBride was retired. The former Marine sniper and covert CIA operative had put the violence of his former life behind him. But not anymore.

A deep-cover FBI agent has disappeared, along with one ton of powerful Semtex explosive, enough to unleash a disaster of international proportions. The U.S. government has no choice but to coax Nathan out of retirement. He’s the only man with the skills necessary to get the job done.

But almost as soon as Nathan reluctantly accepts the assignment, he’ll find himself caught in the middle. On the one side is a ruthless adversary with a blood-chilling plan—and on the other are agents who will stop at nothing to see their own brand of justice done.
