Shadow Hunt Michael Pedicelli

Max Barrett is an operator with America's most top covert Special Operations unit, Black Wolf. Driven hard by events from his past, Barrett's new assignment is to lead a team that will secretly protect Sara, the President's only daughter, during a U. N. humanitarian trip to Nigeria. Problem is, the Secret Service does not want him anywhere near the First Daughter. Their infighting stops when she is kidnapped during a deadly ambush. Worse yet, her true identity was kept hidden on this trip. That tells Barrett one very bad thing: an insider has to be involved. Alone and cut off from his normal resources, Barrett is forced to use all of his skills, experience, and contacts-including a few shady characters from way outside the intelligence community-in a race against time to save Sara's life. The kidnappers' trail leads Barrett on a worldwide hunt, through a labyrinth of clues that reveals a chilling truth: the kidnapping was only a small part of a much more devious plan. A plan with the ultimate goal of destabilizing the world. Shadow Hunt is the first in the Max Barrett Thriller series-a high-speed, smart new spy series straight from the mind of a man who knows what 21st century espionage is really all about.
