Oh dear.  I hate to go on and on about the same thing over and over, but I see we have trouble brewing. The Great Fall Pumpkin Spice 2019 Debate has begun. This yearly argument gets a little weird. It seems to only really take place on Facebook, but never really in real life. It’s a passionate battle though. Caps lock is abused and a certain coffee shop’s name is thrown around like goldfish in the back of a minivan in both good and bad ways. My biggest concern through this whole battle is deciding when it is okay to start decorating for Fall. I think the best time is anytime after the kids have started school and I have actually managed to get the house cleaned. Some years that is mid August, other years December 12th. It varies a bit. Every year I slowly sneak pumpkins into my front yard in hopes hubby doesn’t notice I keep adding more each week. This year I am going to hide them in an Easter Egg sorta way…. in the tall grass I haven’t mowed in weeks because I hate mowing. I will place them deep inside the lawn, and then mow it when hubby is looking. When I come across them I will comment on how they must have come from that packet of seeds I dropped in the lawn a few months ago. My brilliance is frightening.

Genre: Literature & Fiction | War | Action & Adventure

FREE for a limited time

They are the most capable, committed, and indispensable counter-terrorist operators in the world
They have no rivals anywhere for skill, speed, ferocity, intelligence, flexibility, and sheer resolve
Now one of them is the enemy

Alpha team leader Sergeant Major Eric Rheinhardt is retiring from the Unit – hanging up his guns and jockeying a desk at the Pentagon. But just when he thought he was out, a ghost has emerged from his past (along with a lost love), dredging up a secret shame and past-due debt. Much worse, his old mentor and now nemesis Rod “the God” Tucker has turned up on the payroll of the messianic Iranian mullahs – training their proxy fighters in Hamas and Hizbullah, purchasing cyberwar talent and fissile material from the Chinese… and laying the groundwork for the fall of the Third Temple, the modern state of Israel.

The explosive collision of these two legendary operators will ultimately embroil Israeli special forces, Chinese hackers, squadrons of D-boys, Tier-1 SEAL teams, CIA paras, Kurdish Peshmerga fighters, hyper-skilled jihadis, and Iranian Revolutionary Guards – all in a no-holds-barred street fight for survival. Before it’s over, the battlespace will be littered with armed robots, stealth drones, a nuclear-cruise-missile-armed submarine, a hijacked Soviet warship, shrieking helicopter crashes, radiological rocket attacks, hacker duels to the death (literally), vendettas, betrayals, reversals, feints, diversions, double crosses, disasters, assassination attempts, one-in-a-million shots at victory, and unstoppable kill-crazy rampages.
