DANGER CLOSE: A Military Action Thriller
He was sent to retrieve an asset. Now he has to rescue an army.
Brill Wingfield is a ghost. A deniable operative sent to the darkest corners of the world to clean up messes the government can’t acknowledge. His latest mission is a simple one: slip into North Korea, retrieve a high-value defector, and disappear.
But in the hostile territory of the Hermit Kingdom, simple plans die fast.
When the mission goes sideways, America’s most elite fighting force, a team of Navy SEALs, is captured behind enemy lines. Beaten and used as propaganda pawns, their time is running out. The Pentagon is ready to write them off, to sacrifice the few to avoid a global conflict.
But they didn't count on Brill.
Operating alone, with no official support and the entire North Korean army hunting him, Brill makes a new plan. He will go where no army can follow. He will infiltrate a fortified military compound and extract the captured SEALs before they are transferred to a death camp and lost forever.
From the bestselling tradition of Lee Child’s Jack Reacher and Vince Flynn’s Mitch Rapp, but written with the sharp dialogue and gritty realism of Elmore Leonard, DANGER CLOSE is a relentless, high-stakes military thriller that never lets up. This is not a story of secret rebellions or last-minute cavalry charges. It’s the story of one man’s resourcefulness, lethal skill, and unyielding will against impossible odds.
For fans of fast-paced covert ops, authentic espionage tradecraft, and pulse-pounding suspense, DANGER CLOSE delivers an unforgettable journey into the heart of darkness. Can one lone operative succeed where an entire military cannot? Or will the most dangerous place on Earth be his tomb?
