<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>After losing his mother and sister to another tragic mass shooting, Team Leader Brad Allison created an elite team to wage battle against domestic terrorists. Team Phalanx was a unit designed to bridge the gap between true justice and the law that often protects criminals more than the innocent. Not bound by the same restrictions as law enforcement, Team Phalanx's mission is to protect the innocent and punish the guilty. <p/>Sanctioned at the highest levels, Team Phalanx moves in the shadows to protect their true identities and defend those who cannot protect themselves.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>In a very dangerous and uncertain world, law enforcement officers do their best to protect the innocent and punish the guilty each and every day. The challenge with this growing problem is that there are simply not enough police officers to be everywhere. Due to this societal inequity, ordinary citizens sometimes have no choice but to protect themselves. After Brad Alison lost his mother and sister in another mass shooting on American soil, and clearly understanding that criminals with high priced attorneys can use the vast sea of gray that exists in the law to get away with crimes most other people would go to prison for, he decided to take decisive action. In order to bridge the gap between the law and true justice, Brad Alison created an elite unit of former Tier 1 operatives that were often tasked to hunt down and neutralize or eliminate terrorists abroad. Due to more legal restrictions, these same warriors that possess highly developed skill sets cannot use their talents when it comes to domestic terrorists. Secretly sanctioned by high level government officials, Team Phalanx was formed to broaden the system of true justice and level the playing field. Using highly trained former military operatives to hunt down and neutralize domestic terrorists was a trial program designed to create the same fear in criminals in our country as it does in foreign lands. The mission was the same as it was during wartime: hunt down vicious terrorists (criminals), protect the innocent (non-combatants), and bring them to justice, dead or alive!<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Mr. Waite was a career member of the Wisconsin Rapids Fire Department (WRFD) for over 26 years.
