Jack Jensen was afraid of heights. He also isn't as
athletic or as masterful as his younger brother. Much as
he enjoys the family that had adopted him, Jack has always
lived in the shadow of his younger brother Troy who could
do everything better than him. Troy was the natural born
son and highly athletic son of Cheryl and Bill Jenson, a
powerful CEO of one of America's largest banks. But, now he
is dead.
Yet for all the advantages that Troy had, why did he go for
strange jobs, like serving on a fishing vessel in the
Bering Strait? Then, when this brilliant and handsome son
dies, where is the expected hue and cry from his Type A
father?
Despite not being at all like his brother, Jack feels that
there has to be something more and he is not going to rest
until he finds out. Following up on the only clue he has,
Jack tries to get in contact with the girlfriend of a man
who also had been lost at sea off the Arctic Fire. Yet,
when Jack tries to reach Karen, he gets a shocking
response! What the hell is going on?
Meanwhile, the President of the United States gets it in
his head that he doesn't need "Red Cell Seven", a secret
agency that is so buried that few know about it. Is
there a connection to Troy's disappearance? As Jack
valiantly struggles to connect the dots to his brother's
disappearance, Maddux, the head of Red Cell Seven, will do
anything to keep his secret organization alive! How far
will he go and how dangerous can he be?
New York Times bestselling author Stephen Frey, has launched
another riveting and high-powered thriller. As Troy's
older brother stumbles and charges in where angels and
spies fear to tread, Jack finds himself, despite being an
intriguing contrast to his much praised and skilled younger
brother. Meanwhile, as both family and government long
buried and closely guarded secrets get revealed, you just
have to keep the pages turning to keep on track and find
out what is happening!
With its realistic and powerful dialogue, strong sense of
locations, and rapidly changing plot development, ARCTIC
FIRE is sure to appeal to readers who like fast paced
action thrillers. Check it out -- if you dare!
Troy Jensen could do it all: he conquered the Seven Summits,
sailed solo around the world twice, and even fought a bull
in a Mexican slum on a dare. So when word comes that a rogue
wave has swept Troy off a crab fishing boat in the Bering
Sea and into a watery grave, his brother, Jack, doesn’t buy
it.
Against his better judgment, Jack decides to
quit his job as a Wall Street trader and head to Dutch
Harbor, Alaska, to investigate. Minutes after revealing his
plan in his father’s New York City office, Jack is nearly
run down in the street. He doesn’t think much of it at the
time, but as he digs deeper into Troy’s disappearance, Jack
unearths information about RED-CELL-SEVEN (RCS), a
super-secret American intelligence group that has operated
for forty years in almost total secrecy and with complete
impunity—and its leaders intend to keep it that way at any
cost.
An adrenaline-pumping tale of one man’s descent
into a hellish underworld populated by terrorists,
assassins, and very bad “good guys,” Arctic Fire
explores the disturbing difference between doing what is
good and doing what is right when it comes to protecting
America from her greatest enemies.
