Patriots Wanted

By: Robert Amacker

For lay-about and general underachiever Carter Pearls, induction into the ultra-secret Terrorist Watch Special Service Team (TWSST) seems a dream come true, too perfect to believe. And, of course, it is. Caught in the spell of murderous Czech con artist Yaro Hrubesh, he and his fellow "Twisters" prepare to take down a Lebanese "sleeper cell" before it can import and explode a tactical nuclear bomb on the Golden Gate Bridge. At least, that's what they think they're doing. The truth is a far cry from their fantasies - or is it? Before it's over, Carter finds himself in a world where nothing is what it seems, pursued by the police for a murder he didn't commit, and confronted with a decision that puts his newfound and most cherished secret agent identity up against loyalty to his best friend. The Gang That Couldn't Shoot Straight meets 24 in this tongue-in-cheek thriller, set in San Francisco around the time of George Bush's reelection, when the US was still giddy with post 9/11 hysteria, and a chance to fight terrorism might be anyone's dream.
