Synopsis

An enigmatic covert operative. A skilled FBI agent with a dark past. And a terror plot unlike any in history. An explosion pulverizes the president-elect s helicopter on Election Night. It soon become clear that the group behind the assassination attempt possesses far greater reach than anything the FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force has yet encountered and a plot so deeply interwoven in the country s fabric that it threatens to upend America s political system. But as Department of Defense operative Hector DeSantos and FBI Agent Aaron Uzi Uziel sort out who is behind the bombing, Uzi s personal demons not only jeopardize the investigation but may sit at the heart of a tangle of lies that threaten to trigger an international terrorist attack. Hailed by political thriller master Vince Flynn as a smart, complex novel that explodes from the page, and by blockbuster author Lee Child as a terrific thriller that s fast, hard, and intelligent, Hard Target is a ticking time bomb that keeps you clinging to the edges of your seat . . . and turning the pages.

About the Author

Alan Jacobson is the National Bestselling Author of several critically acclaimed thrillers. Alan's two decades of research and training with the FBI s profiling unit, the Drug Enforcement Administration, the US Marshals Service, Scotland Yard, SWAT, and branches of the US military have helped shape the stories he tells and the characters that populate his novels. The San Francisco Chronicle stated that Alan Jacobson researches his books like a good newspaper reporter, and then pushes the envelope into reality more thoroughly than the typical crime novel could ever allow. Alan s novels have made numerous Top 10 Best Books of the Year lists and five have been optioned by Hollywood. His main series character, FBI Profiler Karen Vail, was culled from several years of work with the FBI s Behavioral Analysis Unit and tracks unintentionally closely to the real female FBI profiler, with whom Alan has worked for the past fifteen years. Karen Vail has been described as My kind of hero by Michael Connelly and as tough, smart, funny, and very believable by Nelson DeMille."
