Description: Eagle Lost races through the streets of Washington, D. C. in a tense, taut story full of danger, mystery, and neuroses as a Secret Service agent with no one to trust tries to save the American President—

During his re-election campaign, the President decides to sneak away for a weekend of fishing.  Only three people know of the President’s whereabouts, one of those being Agent Wayne Mitchell, assigned to protect the leader on the trip.  When the President is kidnapped, Mitchell must secretly search for him, his only help coming from a couple of homeless siblings he meets along the way.

As the agent tries to find the President, however, he stumbles upon a much bigger problem—a threat dating back to the Cold War era that is about to be unleashed.
Notes: Craig McLaren, the president of a bank, has had many opportunities to meet with government and business officials and seen how the scenarios described in the book are very possible. Once the terrible events of 9-11 had happened, his thoughts for this book became even more realistic. 
 
Mr. McLaren’s compelling story simply raises the modern-day concern; who is really running this country, anyway?
 
As we casually attend our Low-carb luncheons, check our E-mails, or renegotiate business contracts, we could be falling prey to a very unexpected governmental take-over, which would change our lives forever.
 
Page after page, Craig McLaren dangles a viable two-day horror scenario that is not only complicated, but also worsened by terrorist infiltrated agencies (CIA, FBI, Homeland Security), which are supposed to check, balance, and protect our President.
 
Mr. McLaren’s characters plummet deep into the dark underground espionage world of, “Whom do you trust?” All the while making the reader thankful this is truly a fictional story.
 
Chilling, Mr. McLaren captures our imaginations throughout the book and shows us just how vulnerable our government security really is! A terrific suspense! Bring on the sequel!
