Exit Strategy
Exit Strategy is the first book in a continuing series introducing the main characters. It is a crime thriller, which bounces between two events being investigated by the FBI over two weeks in late August/early September. The crimes initially believed to be unrelated introduce ex-military personnel on both sides of the law in a cat and mouse game unfolding across the globe, with an explosive climax. Told in the third person, author Meyer reveals his prowess as a storyteller. A quick read at just 250 pages, Exit Strategy, is excellent for your next vacation or long flight. Exit Strategy is pure fiction. Any similarities between persons, places, and activities are strictly coincidental. As an added bonus, please enjoy the first chapter in the sequel Next Wave, due out in late fall 2021.
