Left for Dead - 9781477578650

Beyond the view of the general population, the petroleum giants of the world are united as an empire with one common goal: maintaining global financial control. Organized by an entity known as Concentric, they are more powerful than all the armies of the world, and yet operate silently from the shadows of obscurity. Their financial might controls everything from the cost of fingernail polish, to the decisions of the most powerful nations going to war. For them, changing America's economic state from a recession to a bull market overnight is no more difficult than flipping a light switch-- creating mega fortunes with every cycle. Unaware of that Concentric exists, a sector within the government of the United States is fighting an endless war against an elusive network of hell bent international and domestic enemies. When dirty work needs to be done, such projects are most often handed over to a contracted front company. A man named Terrance Roberts, AKA T-Rock, is a hardened, middle-aged mercenary working for such a company, called Fist of the South Star Networking (FSSN). Having survived the Vietnam War, a harsh stay in an Oklahoma prison, and induction into the FSSN, he has been transformed into an emotionless, disciplined hit man who has done his job without question or remorse for almost twenty years. Like a landscape repopulating with plant life after a nuclear holocaust, T-Rock is becoming human again, and seeks to leave his life as a mercenary, for good. His eye is set on a warm lakefront community with sociable people who accept him, and have no idea of the projects that continue to encompass his life. Before he is free, he must fulfill one last obligation. The last project, however, could prove to be the most deadly-- for him, and the entire nation. Unknowingly, T-Rock has participated in a project that has infuriated Concentric, and the petroleum empire. In a world of only villains and unlikely allies, T-Rock is left for dead during his final project while Concentric engages the leaders of the FSSN on a personal level. With the fate of innocent millions on the line, T-Rock steps up in his darkest hour as the hero who fights to save North America from a crippling, horrific fate. A realistic story of action, romance, conspiracy, infiltrations, unique weaponry, trickery, twists, and turns, Left for Dead delivers.
