To those with the highest security clearance, it's a line item known only as Project X. But to the half dozen agents and personnel working for it, it's known as Firestorm, a black ops group so dark that the U.S. President doesn't even know about them yet. And no agent is as skilled as Brady Hawk.

Amid the smoldering ashes of another terrorist attack on U.S. interests in Iraq, Hawk searches for Nasim Ghazi, the chief bomb maker for the terrorist group Al Hasib. However, Hawk's mission is almost cut short when he's nearly killed by an assassin.

Haunted by his harrowing escape, Hawk must quietly navigate through Iraq and Afghanistan to hunt down Ghazi before he strikes again. As he and his Washington-based handler Alex Duncan try to solve the mystery of his assassin, Hawk struggles with the revelation that his father, the world's most renowned weapons manufacturer, may not be who he thinks he is.

In a world where nothing is as it seems, Hawk must stay focused in order to put down another threat before it's too late ... both himself as his country.

Fans of Vince Flynn, David Baldacci, and Brad Taylor are loving this new action thriller series!

This pulse-pounding thriller from award-winning and bestselling author R.J. Patterson gives you a new hero and will leave you on the edge of your seat until the first last shot is fired!

Review

Praise for R.J. Patterson
"R.J. Patterson proves he just might be the next worthy successor to Vince Flynn." - Vince Zandri, NY Times bestselling author

"R.J. Patterson has me hooked. I'll be back for more." - Bob Behler, play-by-play voice for Boise State football and basketball

Praise for First Strike
"Reminiscent of the original Bourne books by Robert Ludlum, but with a sprinkling of the relationship of David Baldacci's King and Maxwell."

"Brady hawk is the next Jack Reacher!"

"If you like the authors/characters from Flynn, Thor, Taylor, Coes, etc., you will thoroughly enjoy this book."

"A well-crafted page turner. The story is very current world affairs and it was easy to get on board with the main protagonist."

"A perfectly balanced book with action sequences that don't just describe mindless explosions and don't forget its own narrative."

"I ran across R.J. Paterson when I was looking for one to fill the shoes of Tom Clancey and Vince Flynn. R.J.'s new series Brady Hawk has all the best of both writers. It is fast paced and heart stopping."

"About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.
