The high-voltage action continues in The Thousand Dollar Target, the exciting new novel in J.T. Brannan's bestselling Colt Ryder series, from a thriller writer at the top of his game.
While picking up some new identity papers from a contact in Detroit, Colt Ryder – the Thousand Dollar Man – is informed that someone from his previous life is looking for him. Ahmad Khan was a translator attached to his secretive Ranger group back in Afghanistan many years before; now he has fled Afghanistan after its brutal takeover by the Taliban forces, fearing retribution for his work with the US military.
Colt – along with his loyal canine companion Kane – must gain access to the crowded camp where Khan is being housed and extract him before he is murdered by assassins posing as fellow refugees. Colt agrees to help protect Khan and set him up with a new life, under a new identity, safe from Taliban reprisals.
But Colt soon discovers that Khan is not a target of assassination merely for assisting US forces in the past, but because of the knowledge he has of terrorist cells hiding within the United States, along with their horrifying plans for future attacks.
As Colt and Kane help Khan to survive, they must battle not only the terrifying zeal of ruthless assassins and terrorists, but also enemies much closer to home.
Colt knows that if he can’t get Khan’s information to the right people, a dead friend will be the least of his problems; because with this job, America’s very safety depends on Colt and Kane doing what they do best – taking the fight to the enemy.
With a plot ripped from today’s headlines, The Thousand Dollar Target is a scintillating, terrifying, all-action thrill ride that is guaranteed to keep you reading all night long!
