HELL FOR THE HOLIDAYS Author: Chris Grabenstein Published: December 15, 2007 by Carroll & Graf Series Name: The Christopher Miller Holiday Thrillers Category: Thriller, Holiday Main Character: Christopher Miller What if America's most lethal terrorist threat came from a jihad of American extremists? In the explosive sequel to Slay Ride, FBI legend Christopher Miller returns for a page-turning countdown to a Thanksgiving Day attack in New York City. Anthony Award-winning author Chris Grabenstein has created a new high-velocity thrill ride of a read. Christopher Miller is up against a group of domestic terrorists who are copying Al Qaeda's tactics: operating in cells, following a twisted fundamentalist doctrine, targeting "public amusements." A White Supremacist hate group has smuggled in a stinger missile and recruited an army marksman—a nightmare vision of a new and more talented Timothy McVeigh. When Miller starts sounding alarm bells about this group and its plans, no one listens because the FBI's focus has shifted to foreign terrorists. "Saint Chris" comes up against the same sort of bureaucratic resistance encountered by the real-life FBI agents who, pre-9/11, wrote memos about Arab Terrorists Flying Airplanes Into Buildings that no one paid attention to. Meanwhile, on the home front, Miller has to cope with his daughter's post traumatic stress as the anniversary of her Christmas nightmare draws near, and he will be torn between taking care of her and saving thousands of innocent lives! "Entertaining as hell. This book will take your mind off the leftovers and erase any thoughts of napping." -- Jon Jordan, Crimespree Magazine |
