Curtain Call (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780648903680)

It's the Fourth of July and America is celebrating.

Former marine sniper turned musician, Nicholas Sharp, is performing with some of the greats at an Independence Day concert in LA. The atmosphere is electric, and the 18,000 strong crowd is hungry for a good time.

The manic frenzy of blues legend Mickey Elvira's blinding solo has the audience on their feet crying for more. Suddenly the frenzied staccato of the guitar is overshadowed by the deadly mechanical clatter of rapid-fire weapons.

This couldn't be happening in America.

In a shocking turn of events, highly trained terrorists unleash chaos by creating an impenetrable ring of explosives around the arena. As armed authorities find themselves powerless against the militants' murderous tactics, negotiators and politicians grapple with the group's seemingly impossible demands.

In the midst of this dire situation, one man stands alone.

Rating his chances as zero, and the terrorists more formidable than anything he's ever faced, Nicholas Sharp knows the smart move would be to do nothing.

With the fate of thousands hanging in the balance can Sharp defy the odds? Can he confront a threat that strikes at the heart of the nation he once served while staying alive long enough to become the reluctant hero America desperately needs? And why, deep in his gut, does Sharp sense that all is not as it seems?

Curtain Call is a high-stakes thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the final, explosive crescendo.
