All Enemies Foreign And Domestic
The NSA's most lethal weapon is back. Code-named Devlin, he operates in the darkest recesses of the US government. When international cyber-terrorists allow a deadly and cunning band of radical insurgents to breach the highest levels of national security, Devlin must take down an enemy bent on destroying America--an enemy more violent and ruthless than the world has ever known.
"Michael Walsh is the new master of the political thriller. With the sophistication of Forsyth, the intrigue of le Carré, and the intensity of Ludlum, Early Warning is an incredible thriller. This book should be stamped Satisfaction Guaranteed! " -- Brad Thor, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Foreign Influence

"Michael Walsh writes hot blazing prose, compelling, fast, honest and dangerous. More than just a master of style, he writes about the most important subject in the world: terrorism, what it is and what it takes to defeat it. You need to read this book."–Robert Ferrigno, author of Prayers for the Assassin

Michael Walsh is an amazing gentleman and a wordsmith in several disciplines who has achieved critical and commercial acclaim for everything from music criticism to successful screenplays to novels. The latter, which Walsh writes all too infrequently, are memorable and unusual, each a bit different from the other. His latest novel, Hostile Intent, is in a class all by itself: a full-throttle, energy-packed thriller that slices across espionage and politics with enough explosions, fisticuffs and firepower to fill five books with a bit left over for the next.
Customer Reviews
Not
While this could have been a favorite for me, the pompous and pedantic writing style distracts/fractures the storyline. The cerebral anachronisms are wasted space that could better be spent developing actual Three diminsional characters.
Early Warning
The story line was fairly interesting but it was a labor to read. The author took you down to many side roads and overloaded the story with twist and turns, as bad as a ride on a winding dirt road. I wouldn't have finished reading it if I hadn't already bought it on iBooks. I guess you get spoiled with authors like David Baldacci, Daniel Silva, Vince Flynn, Andrew Britton and others out there. One other thing, and it seems to be the whole genre moving that way, is the constant use of the f- bomb and other vulgar words. What is happening to the writers that cam turn a phrase or make a story worth reading without getting down in the gutter? Would not recommend!!!
Early warning
Pompous, pretentious. The basic story line is good. It's all the esoteric references that really slow the story down.
