Book Cover & Preview Text
Dinner was served on the balcony. The sun looked as if it were setting into the waters of the Pacific. It was a special ending to their first day of marriage. They were fighting to stay awake. David helped Carrie out of her chair and they started toward their quarters when Enrique met them. He asked if they would like something to drink. David asked for tomato juice, Carrie took the same. Within minutes they were asleep.
Less than an hour passed when David rolled over dropping his arm across Carrie. Moments passed and his mind told him that she was not there! Shaken he tried to turn on the bedside lamp but his body would not respond. He came more alarmed knowing that she was not in the bed and yet he was unable to move! Slowly he forced his mind to concentrate..trying to sit up. He began to sweat as his concern for her grew. He worked his way to the edge of the bed and was able to turn on the light.
Forcing his eyes to focus he looked around the room and called her name. Silence! He called again. There was still no response. He stood up in a panic! He got his legs to move. It was then that he realized he had been drugged! If he had been drugged then Carrie must have been drugged also! Maybe she had passed out in the bath. Stumbling across the room he found the bathroom and turned on the light. She was not there! Adrenaline was flowing throughout his body! He stumbled through the house calling her name. Christina appeared.
"What has happened?" she asked. He yelled that Carrie was no where to be found. Christina began to search the house. She knocked on Enrique's door to get his help. When he didn't answer she opened the door. He was gone!
David stepped out on the balcony. Immediately he heard a sound. It sounded like an engine...a motor boat! He could see nothing except moon light across the water, but he knew that the sound was coming from a boat. He ran back to his room, grabbed his binoculars and rushed out to the balcony just off his bedroom. He searched the area where the boat had to be. He could still hear it and realized that the sound was growing faint. Suddenly he saw it in the moon light! It was heading straight away from the house.
Then he noticed something else on the water. It looked like a plane...a seaplane! The boat was heading straight toward an amphibious plane. What could a plane be doing in the cove at this time of night? Then it hit him! Carrie was on that boat! Was she being taken to that plane? His mind searched for answers. Certainly that had to be it!

About the Book
David Irons was graduating first in his class at Texas A&M University, but though he was a brilliant student his real love at the college was football. His graduating placement meant less to him in the face of his disappointment at not being good enough to go on to play football for the Dallas Cowboys, but he was left with what was, to him, a lesser alternative: go to medical school and join his father's practice as an orthopedic surgeon. That was before a strange incident in the mountains of Colorado changed his physical make-up and abilities. When his friend, Scot Morgan of the Cowboys, saw him run, he immediately arranged a tryout. David ended up with his original dream, playing for the Cowboys and becoming the MVP of the National Football League in his first and only year. Things changed again when he rescued the wife of Joseph Ordway, a prominent industrialist, from kidnappers who had hoped to gain some of his large wealth for themselves. This led to David"s meeting with Joseph himself, who happened to be the owner of Ordway Enterprises, the world's largest armament manufacturer. Ordway, knowing what he did of David's abilities, persuaded his close friend, Admiral Bonner of the National Security Agency to recruit David and make him an undercover agent to lead the fight against global terrorism. David's first mission would prove to have not only national interests but personal ones at stake; he was to rescue his new bride, Carrie, who had been abducted during their honeymoon in Puerto Vallarta. The culprit? The internationally sought-after terrorist and drug kingpin, Ramon Estebon. David desperately trailed Estebon through the jungles of Columbia, but his path was bereft of a happy ending. He found his beloved wife dying from a drug overdose forced on her by the cartel. This senseless murder sent David into a rage, placing within him an ever-burning hatred directed at Estebon and men like him. David's passion drives him to seek out and destroy terrorists who plot against America, its resources, and most importantly its people. His love for his wife joins his love for his country in his campaign for conservative ideals and against growing socialist trends in government as he does everything possible to prevent others from suffering the fate of his wife and others like her that have fallen to America's enemies. He carries out covert operations across the globe; Columbia, Turkey, Syria, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan and the U. S. David is determined to make it so there is no place where the enemies of Democracy are safe from his staunch defense of his country.
About the Author
Charlie Childers wrote this book with two ideas in mind: to entertain his readers and to promote conservatism. His voice is one of concern that there are people in our government whose goals are to destroy our system of free enterprise and change America into a socialistic state similar to what has happened in Great Britian, Sweden, Finland and other countries. This would create double digit unemployment and put government in control of every aspect of our lives. The main characters in his book epitomize how conservative Americans think. They love the American way of life and will fight for it.
