Lethal Savage: A Peter Savage Novel
"I would follow Peter Savage into any firefight." -James Rollins, New York Times bestseller of The Demon Crown
Two men, one driven to the edge of sanity by heart-breaking losses, the other craving revenge, conspire to reshape America and bring her population to their knees.
When young men on the Warm Springs Reservation in Central Oregon are stricken with an unidentified disease that leaves them sterile, Peter Savage is called to aid in the investigation.
With the inquiry gaining momentum, Peter is kidnapped by hardened mercenaries. In the remote high desert of Oregon, Peter finds himself face to face with a demon from his past-an adversary who has seemingly risen from the grave.
As the minutes count down to a biological holocaust, Peter presents the only chance to save an unwitting civilian population. With his trusted canine companion Diesel by his side, along with a former-assassin-turned-ally, Peter must gamble far more than his own life… and the odds have never been so long..

Dave Edlund's latest tale to feature his stalwart Peter Savage features the ultimate high-stakes plot to either destroy America or change it forever. Lethal Savage never lets up or lets us down, while making masterful use of both contemporary geopolitics and cutting-edge technology. A tour de force in all respects!" ─ Jon Land, USA TODAY bestselling author of the Murder, She Wrote series and Caitlin Strong series
“Edlund’s lean prose and whip-smart dialogue propel readers through this frighteningly realistic thriller at a breathtaking pace." ─ K. J. Howe, international bestselling author of SKYJACK
"I would follow Peter Savage into any firefight," says James Rollins, New York Times bestseller of The Demon Crown.
A member of the International Thriller Writers, Dave’s action-political thrillers are often compared to the Dirk Pitt novels by Clive Cussler, the Sigma Series novels by James Rollins, the Jack Ryan novels by Tom Clancy, and the international thrillers of Steve Berry.

I'm glad I had the chance to read this and will be looking forward into reading more of this author's books in the future. This is the 6th book I think in this series and even though it's the only one I've read so far you really don't have to start from the beginning to understand what's going on. In this book you have a couple of characters going on with each other but main character is Peter Savage. I guess this guy has had a few people after him in the past and here you have a man that has a huge amount of money on his head of he's caught. The storyline is great and so much is going on that you have to read it to find out what is going to happen next. This mess that's going on out on the reservation is heartbreaking and just really stops and makes you think about things going on in the real world around us....

Top notch and entertaining, while also being thought provoking. I look forward to reading more by this same author as long as he also includes Disel and Dayna, then I'm hooked forever!
I received this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Thank you to Netgalley for the opportunity to read and review this book. The Savage series are always a fun read. The protagonist always seems to be in the wrong place at the right time. A reader has to leave common sense behind as this is read but that is ok.
