About this ebook
“Dan Morgan is one of the best heroes to come along in ages.”—Jeffery Deaver
From Black Ops veteran Leo J. Maloney comes a pulse-pounding thriller of an American agent on the run from merciless enemies—and unable to trust his allies. . .
WAR OF SHADOWS
Dan Morgan is a wanted man. Unknown assailants have targeted him—and his family. His home destroyed. His wife Jenny, presumed dead. His fellow Zeta operatives are missing in action, except his daughter Alex. Someone has declared war on Zeta, and the Morgans may be the only agents left alive.
Pursued cross-country, Dan is driven by two things—protecting Alex and getting revenge against those responsible for killing Jenny. But he is unaware of who he’s truly up against. He suspects Zeta was infiltrated by double agents. Intelligence operatives from around the world are hunting him. And an adversary from Dan’s past is determined to destablize the world by any means necessary . . .

War of Shadows by Leo J. Maloney The Dan Morgan Thriller Series #8 After reading the author’s biography and some of the reviews by authors I enjoy reading I was looking forward to reading his book. I knew I was coming in on the series late but had enjoyed a previous novella length story and really liked it so...in I jumped. The beginning opened with a bang – literally! Dan’s home explodes in front of his eyes and he is left wondering if his wife and daughter are okay. Seeing the presumed bad guy he pursues and sees another big explosion. Following Zeta protocol he ends up in his first ambush and is saved by his sniper daughter. The middle of the book includes car chases, more ambushes, numerous fight sequences, a trip half way around the world, mysteries to unravel, multiple groups after him and at the end there is the question of what Zeta will do next...as well as finding out whether or not his wife survived. What I liked: * fight sequences seemed realistic – for the most part * the main character’s thinking process * the knowledgeable discussion of weaponry * the camaraderie * the interaction between Dan and his daughter What I didn’t lie: * the sci-fi feel of the weapons and armor * the comic book feel – though it might make a good illustrated novel * the unvelievability factor – just couldn’t see a lot of this happening in real life Did I enjoy the book? Sort of Would I read more by this author? Maybe Thank you to NetGalley and Kensington-Lyrical-Underground for the ARC – This is my honest review. 3-4 Stars
