From Us by Randall Jarmon

America’s in trouble. The Senate’s at war with itself while the House founders anew. Judges twist law and journalists bend truth. Violent riots light up evening skies.

A rich financier plans two murders to tip the balance of power his way. What's to stop him?

Mostly three white-collar criminals: a disgraced spy, a blonde with a drinking problem, and a cop forced to retire early. They're thieves, who dare not contact the authorities.

But self-preservation drives these misfits. They have exotic skills and dangerous friends. They might even have a chance.

About the Author: An English major at heart, Randall Jarmon doggedly obtained an engineering degree. The technology in his novels thus rings true, even for scientists and engineers he once worked among. 

He endured his share of elite military training. Expect realistic accounts of weapons, tactics, and martial arts. He also earned a doctorate in Management, which helps him explain the organization of human effort. Look for good plots clearly set forth.

From this uncommon background flow suspense novels well-suited for cold nights by fires, for warm days on beaches, and for airport delays anywhere.
