Praise for Allan Leverone and Final Vector

Due February 1, 2011 from Medallion Press

“Allan Leverone raises the stakes with every turn of the page in this can’t-put-down tale of ruthless terrorists and cold-blooded betrayal.”

—Sophie Littlefield, Anthony Award-winning author of A Bad Day for Sorry

“Written with edge-of-your-seat suspense and precise detail that can only come from a writer who did his research while on the job, Final Vector kept me, a white-knuckle flier, in awe from the very first sentence. The successor to Michael Crichton has landed. And his name is Allan Leverone.”

—Vincent Zandri, bestselling author of The Remains and The Innocent
