The world is descending into chaos. America is like a rudderless ship-its elected government gridlocked and ineffective. Rogue governments spit on Old Glory and defy a weakened America to stop them. Religious fanatics are dedicated to butchering all the world's citizens who don't convert to their beliefs. And the worst is yet to come. From Russian aggression to worldwide jihadism, from China's designs on Southeast Asia to a morally and financially bankrupt European Union, from violent and expanding drug cartels to Iranian nuclear designs, the Alliance for Global Unity is close to achieving its goal-a single world government with them ruling it. But appearances can be deceiving. A shadow government of old fashioned patriots is working to change the course of events. Armed with deep financial resources and critical positions in the military and intelligence communities, it just might succeed. The key to success is the world's deadliest hunter-killer special ops unit-the Sleeping Dogs. But keeping the six Sleeping Dogs alive is challenging. An outstanding Presidential Decision Directive ordered the men to be terminated with extreme prejudice. An angry FBI agent, believing his wife had an affair with the unit's leader Brendan Whelan, is pursuing him with homicide on his mind. A rogue Russian agent seeks revenge for thwarting his mission to assassinate the president of the United States. And, most chillingly, a huge and mysterious brute named Maksym is systematically hunting the Dogs down individually. The fate of the free world hangs in the balance. There will be blood. Lots of blood. This is Book 2 in the Sleeping Dogs series and it takes the reader all over the globe, as Whelan and the Dogs fight to stop a power-mad cartel. The Dogs are back; expect a high body count!
About the Author: John Wayne Falbey wrote his first novel at age 22 while a student at Vanderbilt University School of Law. That novel is a tale of gunrunning, guerilla warfare, and danger in the Caribbean. Without benefit of an agent, that novel, The Quixotics, drew interest from the Harper & Row publishing company. He was asked to rewrite the book to delete the protagonist because he was an "anti-hero, and readers don't like anti-heroes." Wayne disagreed, terminated the discussions, and self-published the book years later. Today, Wayne writes techno-political spy thrillers. His debut novel in that genre, Sleeping Dogs: The Awakening, became an international best seller on Amazon.com and was endorsed by Compulsory Reads. The novel is part of the Sleeping Dogs series. The second novel in the series, Endangered Species, was published on March 17, 2015. Wayne is well into the third novel, Year of the Dog. A native Floridian and former transactional attorney, Wayne is a real estate investor and developer in Southwest Florida. As his wife likes to say, he has "more degrees than a thermometer," (4) including a doctorate in business. In addition to law, real estate and writing, he created and chaired a Master of Science program in real estate development at an academic institution in Florida.
