superb action-packed romantic suspense thriller

Mercenaries Herbert Payne-Best and Pieter De Wet are hired for regime change in Central Africa. They offer security consultant Peter Avakian, an opportunity to makee a million euros for doing the advance legwork in Benin. Although he has doubts the French paratroopers will stay out of the country if the current leadership is removed, he accepts the job by attending their meeting; rejection equates to his death. Avakian debates bringing in the CIA as he knows his employers will dispose of him after he is no longer of use while the agency sucks civilians and agents dry. However, he agrees to conduct undercover surveillance for the CIA hoping to come out of this entangled oily fiasco alive and with minimal damage to the innocent. His hope is not with the spooks who will protect their butts first and last, but with two women South African reporter Patience Mbatha and Darkness Under Heaven CIA compatriot Dr. Judy Gold. Bargain with the Devil is a superb action-packed romantic suspense thriller starring a likable beleaguered gun-slinging hero who makes a bad first misstep by showing up at the "coup" meeting. Readers will enjoy Avakian's efforts to minimize collateral damage, prevent a coup, and save his life. Harriet Klausner

Amazing...............

F.J. Chase has done it again, even better than before, with BARGAIN WITH THE DEVIL. From page one Peter Avakian takes us into his world of action packed, believable adventure. I thought he was thrilling in China..........well, his escapades in South Africa are unimaginable, and yet so real. Anyone who knows anything about South Africa knows how dangerous situations there can become, and Peter has found them all. If you want a read that can not be put down, this is it. Amazing. How does F.J. Chase come up with these stories? Who knows, but please keep them coming........... # 1 Fan...............TS
