Reseña del libro "SPIRITs of Retribution: A Josh Morgan Novel (en Inglés)"
"And ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free." Bible verse John 8:32, on a wall in the Lobby of the Central Intelligence Agency's Original Headquarters Building Eighteen months after the breathtaking conclusion of Half of Faith, Josh Morgan finds himself in the midst of another crisis, and the stakes couldn't be higher. Reason and thoughtful deliberation have given way to raw emotion at the highest level of the U.S. government, and "Operation Retribution" is underway. President Sandra Hendrickson and her Joint Chiefs of Staff have the United States military poised for reprisal against Russia for an attack on American soil, but was the Kremlin really responsible? Has the commander in chief's personal rage clouded her judgement? Events are swirling out of control as U.S. leaders rush the world headlong toward the long-feared Armageddon.With the two superpowers on the brink of war, the former CIA spy and a small circle of allies pit themselves against an administration hell-bent on payback. With the help of former President Trent Weston, CIA Director Elizabeth Parnell, and Russian Foreign Intelligence Agent Slava Proskurkin, Morgan puts his life on the line in a desperate search for answers, for a truth he hopes will bring an end to the conflict. But with SPIRITs, a Green Beret A-team, authorized to engage the enemy at discretion, time is running out. Even if Morgan succeeds, will it be enough to persuade the president and the Joint Chiefs to stand down? The White House's relentless rush to retribution makes unlikely alliances and individual sacrifice the only hope if sanity is to prevail. SPIRITs of Retribution, like Book One of the Josh Morgan Series, Half of Faith, is a warning of the perils of righteous indignation, and of the catastrophic consequences that await when presumed moral authority stands in the way of moral obligation. With a myriad of subplots driven by flawed, conflicted characters, SPIRITs of Retribution resumes Josh Morgan's escape from the demons of his past.
