The Padre paranoia

A JIMMY REDSTONE / ANGELLA MARTINEZ THRILLER

A Zephyr military surveillance plane captures a brutal, methodical murder on a sandy beach 10 miles below.  Then, a U.S. Senator suffers a fatal heart attack just as he is about to cast the deciding vote to defeat legislation that would drastically curtail the military.

The President gives agents Jimmy Redstone and Angella Martinez two days to find answers to several questions: namely: Was the Senator murdered or did he die naturally?   If the Senator was murdered, is there a military insurrection behind it?  And was the Senator’s death connected to the murder on the beach?

As Jimmy and Angella search for the answers, they stumble on the murder of the Senator’s underage girlfriend. 

In the process, Angella’s life seeming becomes dispensable as the various factions fight to preserve their invincibility.
