Freedom's Promise: A CIA Special Activities Thriller

By Lisa Pietsch

When CIA operative Vince Hennessee is kidnapped by the Russian mafia, his girlfriend and teammate Sarah Stevens will stop at nothing to get him back.

Sarah's transformation from overweight Air Force cop to lethal undercover agent is put to the ultimate test as she assembles an unofficial rescue team to bring Vince home. With no government support and limited resources, Sarah and her elite team of former special forces operators must track Vince to a heavily guarded compound in Saudi Arabia's Empty Quarter.

Going undercover as a local servant, Sarah infiltrates the compound where Vince is being tortured by a sadistic guard. As she gathers intelligence for a daring rescue attempt, she makes an unexpected alliance with a family seeking their own vengeance against their Russian oppressors.

Time is running out as Russian crime boss Nikolai plans to execute Vince and escape into the desert. Sarah and her team launch a high-stakes assault, deploying military-grade weapons and their considerable skills in a desperate bid to save one of their own.

But even if they can extract Vince alive, Sarah knows their unauthorized mission has made powerful enemies. With the Russian mafia hunting them and their own government disavowing any knowledge of their operation, Sarah's newfound confidence and lethal abilities will be tested as never before.

Freedom's Promise delivers heart-pounding action, sizzling romance, and the unbreakable bonds of loyalty that define the best special operations teams. If you enjoyed Jack Carr's "The Terminal List," Tom Clancy's "Without Remorse," and Vince Flynn's "Kill Shot," you'll love Freedom's Promise.
