Redemption of Lonnie Tate

"Things are going to get ugly with these people, Lonnie."


Lonnie Tate has talents he hasn't used since he was in the black ops world of the CIA more than 40 years ago.

In 1966, a smart-ass kid named Lonnie Tate finds himself in the Marine Corps in Vietnam. Sixteen months later, he and two of his Marine buddies are recruited to become agents for the CIA.

The story jumps to the Middle East, then really takes off when Lonnie surfaces in California in 2010. Soon a not-so-chance reunion with one of his old buddies from Vietnam pulls him back into a life where he was at his best when he was at his worst. But he's older now, and there is more at stake. His buddy's team has undertaken a lose-lose op: if it succeeds, it hands the world over to jihadists. If it fails…failure is not an option. There's a missing piece to the puzzle, and only Lonnie can find it.

An international mystery full of twists and turns you'll never see coming.
