Local and national political figures are systematically assassinated. A growing secessionist movement stirs up anti-government fervor. The combination creates nationwide unrest and lack of confidence in leadership. With the clock ticking toward a monumental constitutional crisis, President Morgan Taylor assigns Secret Service Agent Scott Roarke to investigate the assassinations. Meanwhile, Roarke's fiancée, an assistant to the U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice, is tasked with researching the separatists. Attorney Katie Kessler goes rogue to gather evidence for the court. Roarke hunts a lone assassin across two continents. Their paths lead them both to a decades-old plot hatched at a private school in Switzerland, now leading to North Korea. <p/> With the assassin ready to make his greatest kill and critical destabilizing votes occurring state-by-state, the president must decide whether to activate America's own secretive, long-incubating active measures against an enemy that can't be exposed, but must be stopped. Timely and revealing, with an inside-out view of real and present dangers, <i>Executive Force</i> brings a political reality to the page that feels like breaking news.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Ingeniously plotted, authentically detailed, chillingly mesmerizing, imaginatively dramatizing real and present dangers, <i>Executive Force</i> is an international political thriller that hits with <i>force.</i> --Jim Parry, BookTrib.com <p/> "Gary Grossman's electrifying <i>Executive Force</i>--a cautionary tale, not so much ripped from the headlines as conceivably foretelling them. A political thriller of the highest order, cut from the cloth of Alan Drury and Richard Condon." --Jon Land, best-selling author <i>The Rising, </i> and <i>Stone Cold Dead</i> <p/> "Don't miss <i>Executive Force.</i> Grossman has a very subtle way in his writing, word by word, page by page, chapter by chapter you get sucked into the maelstrom and find yourself unable to put the book down . . . and then don't want it to end. A perfect, compelling, tour de force of a thriller that's made me not only go back and buy his earlier novels, but perch on the edge of my seat for the next one." --L.J. Martin, best-selling author of <i>Shadows of Nemesis</i> <p/> <b>Praise for <i>Executive Actions</i></b> <p/> <i>Executive Actions</i> is the best political thriller I have read in a long, long time--right up there with the very best of David Baldacci.
