Politics, money, violence and deception fill the pages of Another Try, a twisting and turning story about covert ops, hidden agendas and pursuit of the truth. Gene Koon has crafted a compelling, fast-paced plot that keeps you guessing until the end.
Garris Kelley was a covert CIA operative…until President Cahill exposed him for pulling off a daring assassination of a cartel kingpin. Now he can’t go anywhere without people asking him for selfies and autographs. But then he finds himself in the middle of a shooting targeting a US Senator in Portland and he jumps into action. Taking him to eastern Oregon and the Willamette Valley wine country, Kelley is on the hunt for the shooter while simultaneously helping a FBI agent track down a missing colleague and getting involved with the security team of a wealthy vintner with powerful friends. Oh, and the cartel has a hit team hunting him down as well. Using every bit of skill in his arsenal and leveraging his vast experience, Kelley will have to navigate a hornet’s nest of trouble to save the day…and stay alive.
Another Try contains multiple storylines neatly weaved together to ensure constant forward motion and a dynamic read that never hits a lull. Between the main investigation, the billionaire winemaker’s obsession with Kelley, a security team that is more than they seem, the President’s involvement, a missing FBI agent and a cartel seeking revenge, there is never a dull moment in the book. Giving the well-developed and sometimes mysterious characters a clear purpose that fits the narrative perfectly. And it is all connected, coming to an explosive head that will elicit gasps, fist pumps and the muttering of a few expletives as everything is revealed with a barrage of violent action.
This is an entertaining, suspenseful and intriguing thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat while you traverse the beautiful state of Oregon in pursuit of justice with a protagonist that you will easily cheer for to be successful.
