description: Earning honorable mention in the Hollywood Book Festival’s 2006 and 2007 annual awards Aiden Rocke’s debut thriller, Rogue Threat , pits a divided America with an overcommitted military against a ruthless enemy cartel bent on tearing away its hegemony. When a fleet of unmanned aerial drones disappears, the U.S. vice president turns to Matt Garrett, a former CIA operative still reeling from the death of his brother and nursing the wounds he suffered in the global war on terrorism. The situation worsens when an enemy combatant commandeers Garrett’s jet, and a former Iraqi general with a startling link to Garrett’s late brother holds Garrett captive. His escape leads him to the unnerving discovery that terrorists have kidnapped the world’s expert on nanotechnology—and to new questions about his brother’s death. Meanwhile, the enemy has launched a flurry of attacks throughout America’s heartland. The country is on edge as citizens wonder whether the terrorists have the capacity to deal a devastating blow with weapons of mass destruction. But Garrett is beginning to suspect that the true enemy may be all too close to home. A chilling tale of intrigue and power written by an author who has experienced combat up close, this is the story of a nation on the brink of chaos and a man about to uncover an unthinkable conspiracy.
