Summary

Troy Pearce is the CEO of Pearce Systems, a private security firm that is the best in the world at drone technologies. A former CIA SOG operative, Pearce used his intelligence and combat skills to hunt down America’s sworn enemies in the War on Terror. But after a decade of clandestine special ops, Pearce opted out. Too many of his friends had been sacrificed on the altar of political expediency. Now Pearce and his team chose which battles he will take on by deploying his land, sea, and air drones with surgical precision.

Pearce thinks he’s done with the U.S. government for good, until a pair of drug cartel hit men assault a group of American students on American soil. New U.S. president Margaret Meyers then secretly authorizes Pearce Systems to locate and destroy the killers sheltered in Mexico. Pearce and his team go to work, and they are soon thrust into a showdown with the hidden powers behind the El Paso attack - unleashing a host of unexpected repercussions.

"Mike Maden understands that sometimes the most lethal warriors are those just out of sight. Drone is action-packed, with cutting-edge technology and an unforgettable cast of characters." (W.E.B. Griffin, number one Wall Street Journal and New York Times best-selling author)

"[A] promising first novel, an engrossing techno thriller...provides plenty of great drone details. Readers will eagerly await Troy’s further adventures." (Publishers Weekly)

average with good ideas

As I said everything is there but unfortunately they character and writing isn't. Boyd are rushed that shouldn't be rushed and stuff that should be rushed is agonised over. Tom Clancy lite would be the comparison.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
