Publisher Description
Davidson “Duke” Ellsworth is many things: Army Ranger, movie buff, language expert, computer genius, surfer. One thing he most certainly is not is a hitman for hire.
When a stranger presents Duke with a chance to become an assassin, Duke listens to him for the fun of it. Until the man reveals he knows more about Duke than any stranger should. Targeted by a mysterious man who should not know the things he does, Duke realizes the safety and security of his squad, his army, his family and maybe even his country hang in the balance.
So Duke does the unthinkable in order to keep safe that which he holds dear. But will he ever be free from the burden of his actions? Thrust into the political power plays of the CIA, Middle Eastern countries and a man bent on disrupting the leadership of Saudi Arabia, Duke must chart his own path with precious few resources or friends. With every side trying to kill him, can Duke survive long enough to set things right? Or will he be gunned down like the men he is coerced into killing?
Duke: The Education of an Assassin is the explosive new suspense thriller in The Fixer series of books.
Customer Reviews
Duke: The Education of an Assassin
The intrigue, suspense, fear, are so palpable on the pages of this book so as to jump off the page and hang in the air in the room you are in, as you hold your breath for the next “happenings”. International conspiracy and double dealing, not to mention the bravery of a young man with his own sense of justice served up on a silver platter for you. And this young character loves his country, and learns a thing or two about “trust” as he begins his journey of transformation of “in the field” training, as he hones it to an art. Rex Carpenter nails yet another one.
