Descripción editorial
It began when he got behind the wheel. It didn't end with his first kill.
Chris Morehouse is a chauffeur for the U.S. Embassy in Germany, navigating the tight streets of Bonn when he sees something he had always known was possible—the U.S. ambassador's car coming under attack by heavily armed terrorists.
Chris is faced with a split-second decision. This isn't his battle. Should he move forward and engage the enemy, or look the other way?
He hits the accelerator.
It is Chris's first kill for the United States—and it won't be his last.
His extraordinary ability to assess a situation and react under pressure catches the attention of a three-letter agency looking for someone with exactly his potential.
But Chris's instincts tell him something else: by stepping into the fight, he may have made himself a target. The FBI dismisses his concerns. Others don't.
Chris is about to discover that getting behind the wheel was the easy part.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Davies brings his decades of experience as a security consultant to this fast-paced thriller set in 1995. British soldier Chris Morehouse, who has finished his tour of duty, chooses to stay in Germany, where he now works as a motor pool driver for the U.S. embassy in Bonn. When three kidnappers target the armored Cadillac in which America's ambassador to Germany, Winston Heymann, is a passenger, Chris springs into action, killing two of the bad guys and rescuing the diplomat. U.S. senator Robert Corbin, who has presidential ambitions, is behind the attack. As president, Corbin would be able to punish the Japanese, who killed his father during the Bataan Death March in 1942, by restricting imports to the U.S. Corbin's complex machinations require neutralizing Heymann. Readers who can overlook some awkward prose ("It would have been a fatal and instant death") will enjoy the twisty ride to a feel-good finish that promises further adventures for Chris. (BookLife)
