From New York Times bestselling authors Andrews & Wilson, Sledghammer is a blistering, high-stakes thriller about redemption, sacrifice, and how far one man will go for family.
Mack Holland might as well have the word “former” tattooed across his chest. He’s a former Green Beret. A former CIA Ground Branch Team Leader. A former husband. A former father.
At least his dog, Blue, still appreciates him.
But when a black SUV with government plates crunches down the gravel driveway of his remote backwoods home, Mack’s quiet, post-operator life is shattered. The G-man who steps out brings news Mack never expected to hear: his daughter Lindsey, officially dead and buried for five years, is alive. And she’s being held hostage in Syria.
With his frozen heart suddenly ablaze with hope, Mack reassembles his old Counter Terrorism team from Ground Branch. The mission is nearly impossible but so is stopping a father on a rescue. As the team plunges into enemy territory, Mack’s resolve—and his aging body—are pushed to the limit. Because bringing his daughter home will cost far more than he ever imagined.
Jeff Wilson is the author of the Archon Sigil series. In addition to writing fantasy and science fiction, his interests include collectible card games such as Magic the Gathering (not interested at all but compelled to participate), self-promotion (considers it a deep personal torture), self-deprecating sarcasm, etymology, theoretical physics (emphasis on theoretical or maybe even crack-pot theoretical), milk and cookies, and finally, above all else, relaxing at home with a good book.View all by Jeffrey Wilson, Brian Andrews
