Double Take (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798896172970)

A psychological thriller, Double Take is both cathartic and transforming. As a terror suspect hellbent on avenging his own personal tragedy, Tazik formulates a plan to even the score to those responsible. Years in the planning, he would bring his wrath to the infidel's home turf-as they had brought their brutal war machine to his own front yard. He built his team and trained them. They were dedicated to the cause and would see it through at all costs. Setting their plan in motion, they recruited confederates who would help get them closer to their goal.

Arriving in the United States and traveling across the Upper Peninsula, they were unprepared for what they saw and what greeted them. Determined to see their plan through, they forged ahead. In the process, they met obstacle after obstacle; they began discovering their nemesis was not evil but rather a peaceful people largely borne of Finnish origin. They began discovering these "Yoopers" were much like themselves-welcoming and hospitable.

Finally, with his team in place and their plan in motion, the critical decision point had been reached. Forging ahead with their plan, the hurdles they had encountered along the way came with twists and turns causing them to continually alter their plans. Execute or abort. Wrestling with his own demons and motivations, they moved forward with his plan. How the plan would play out could not have been anticipated by Tazik or the American forces.

Set against the backdrop of Michigan's beautiful Upper Peninsula, years of planning and preparation take a different direction, and plans are altered as the avengers discover they have more in common with their enemy than not.
