Synopsis

In the tradition of David Morrell's bestselling The Fifth Profession, this tale of a super-bodyguard hunting down a rogue client who controls a new and powerful weapon promises to be the most imitated thriller for years to come. Cavanaugh, a former member of Delta Force who now works as a protector for those rich enough to afford him and his team, is hired by a brilliant scientist named Prescott who needs protection from a powerful drug lord seeking the highly addictive drug he has invented. At least that is what Cavanaugh is led to believe. After Cavanaugh trains the scientist in escape and evasion, the unthinkable occurs: Cavanaugh's team is viciously attacked and entirely wiped out--and Prescott seems to be in collusion with the attackers. Now Cavanaugh must fight against his own tactics and anticipate his enemy's every move while suffering the consequences of the real secret Prescott is hiding: a unique weapon that induces fear.

Reviews

Global Protective Service's prime operator, Cavanaugh, is the only team member who survives the mission to protect Daniel Prescott, who has discovered a wonder hormone that invokes paralyzing fear in its victims. But when Prescott unleashes the hormone on his attackers and protectors alike, Cavanaugh must use every skill and instinct at his disposal to thwart Prescott and all pursuers. The plot is rife with action, murder, and lots of creative ways to attack the enemy. Corbin Bernsen narrates the nonstop action, pausing only to let Cavanaugh lick his wounds and think of his next plan of attack.
