Total Mayhem



Touted as one of the most accomplished action writers on the planet, New York Times bestselling author John Gilstrap is a master of the special ops thriller. Just in time for Independence Day, the eleventh installment in Gilstrap's award-winning series sets Jonathan Grave and his team take on an adrenaline-pumping mission to stop a deadly attack on a major American tourist attraction--and on American democracy!

Former US special ops recruited by ISIS to murder American citizens.
Jonathan Graves will stop them - by any means necessary.

In bestselling author John Gilstrap’s ticking time bomb of a thriller, freelance operative Jonathan Grave penetrates a terrorist cell to stop the detonation of total mayhem on home ground . . .
 
America is under fire. One by one, simultaneous terror attacks have left the country reeling. The perpetrators are former Special Forces operatives working for ISIS. Jonathan Grave and his team are called to go undercover and eliminate the traitors. No need to collect intel. No need for arrest. Wipe them out—and get out.
 
The assaults are rehearsals for extreme disaster. A plot codenamed Retribution. One terrorist is willing to talk—for a price. Grave’s only resort is to slip into a dark web where everything can be exposed. Where the rules of engagement do not hold. The bombs have been set and Grave is the one being hunted. Unless he can save himself first, a terrorist plot of unimaginable scope will become history’s deadliest disaster . . .
