Description
In the Agency’s most secret of black programs, for twenty years CIA pilot Duncan Hunter has conducted “special activities,” finding hostages and facilitating their rescue, finding and destroying drug labs, killing drug crops with technology, and hunting down and eliminating high-profile terrorists who seek to become the next leader of international terrorism.
An American woman missing for years is rescued from a terrorist’s compound. Iran’s ayatollahs celebrate they now have a weapon that will annihilate the United States and Israel. Al-Qaeda has been decimated and seeks another “spectacular” event like 9/11 to get back into the game.
Agency analysts suggest the woman may have key information of the terrorist’s plan to steal the most lethal virus in the world, infect a cadre of martyrs, and spread the contagion among passengers on commercial airliners. But she’s not talking.
Can Duncan Hunter stop an engineered virus from becoming an extinction event?

A good thriller in parts. I question whether a shorter word than perambulated could have been used why not just say 'walked'. But maybe that is me being pedantic. The characters are prone to making long speeches at times. All in all a reasonably good thriller. Thank you to netgalley and the publishers for giving me an advance copy of this book.
Drue Duncan Hunter, former Marine officer, now a pilot in a CIA Black Ops Program, is on the hunt for the mastermind of an engineered bioterrorism virus. A long-ago casual encounter surfaces after 20 years and will become an unexpected ally in his pursuit. This a a non-stop thriller with an incredible amount of information for the enthusiast of this genre. This is my first book of the series and I do plan to go back and read the earlier Duncan Hunter books #1 – 5. Thanks to NetGalley and Black Rose Writing for providing me with an advance copy of this book. #SpecialActivities #NetGalley
So far, I’ve read all the Special Access books in this series. I find them all very easy to read but hard to put down. I found the story lines to be very realistic to the extent I thought I was reading some current events. Because I have previously worked within some of these environments depicted throughout the books, I sometimes had a hard time believing sections of the books were not fiction.
I’m Glad I was able to read them, and I’m waiting for the next follow on to the last Activities book.
