Craig McIntyre #2
Meltdown
Ex bodyguard Craig McIntyre has a unique affliction: his mere presence removes people's inhibitions turning their darkest thoughts into actions.
When captured by arch enemy and state senator Tampoline, McIntyre fully expects to be killed, but instead finds himself on a mission to help replenish the US Strategic Petroleum Reserve which has been destroyed in a hushed attack by white supremacist group the Factor.
As McIntyre tries to use his unique ability to avert global economic meltdown, he must stay one step ahead of both Tampoline and the Factor. And as this thrilling story unfolds the stakes only get higher.

Perfect follow up to The Catalyst which doesn't let up on the pace. If anything it's accelerated as Craig gets closer to finding more about his strange ability and gets into chilling scrapes along the way. With the introduction of some new memorable characters the Craig McIntyre series is shaping up to be quite the ride. Can't wait for the third one!
