About this ebook
“The marines have landed (finally) in the genre . . . a roller-coaster story that genuinely evokes the colorful character of the Corps.” —Captain Dale Dye, USMC (Ret) Marine, author, actor, filmmaker
From New York Times-bestselling author, Peter Telep, comes the fast-paced thriller where corruption within the U.S. intelligence agencies are uncovered by those with the ultimate courage, honor, and commitment to our great nation—The Marines.
When a small-town terrorist invasion results in a tragic death, retired Marine Master Sergeant James “Johnny” Johansen agonizes over questions whose answers threaten his loved ones, his career, and his company. The most serious question of all—is Johnny’s family linked to Islamic extremists in the United States?
Johnny turns to his former brothers-in-arms, Willie, Corey, and Josh. Relying on their skills as highly trained marines, the team uncovers a treacherous plot involving renegade defense contractor and co-conspirators at the highest levels of U.S. intelligence. Risking their lives to reveal the shocking details of the operation, Johnny and his friends discover that hundreds of terrorists are poised to launch a coast-to-coast attack on American soil.
Time is running out. Who can Johnny trust? No one, except . . . the Secret Corps.
“Mr. Telep has done a fantastic job of capturing the life-long brotherhood that we share as Marines and our drive to accomplish the mission. Semper Fi!” —Gunnery Sergeant Eric N. Gordon, USMC (Ret)
“The players from Johnny and ‘the boys’ to the Marine Corps Band of Brothers will all seem larger than life, but there is not one who would fail to live up to the challenge.” —Lieutenant Colonel R.C. Adams USMC (Ret)

Thrilling read packed with action and an end that packs a punch. There are plenty of real life examples of veterans taking courageous action when needed. Telep takes that theme and weaves a compelling call to action. Hell, I know I'd have turned out for my brothers in arms.
