Rogue State #2
Fortress
Delta Force operator Vann Jackson has brought something far deadlier than his guns back to the US embassy in Baghdad.
He’s carrying a gruesome virus, and when he launches a savage attack in the embassy chow hall, it doesn’t take long before the infection spreads and things go to hell.
As the death toll climbs faster than a Baghdad thermometer, desperate diplomats beg Washington DC for help, but Secretary of State Amy Coffman has other plans for the embassy…
And they don’t include saving her fellow Americans.
Abandoned by their political masters and cut off from the outside world, the survivors must fight their way out of the fortified compound before the growing army of infected can get to them.
And before a ruthless Deep State cabal can implement their final, terrible solution.

Breathless
What a totally fascinating storyline the corruption of political leaders and the worthlessness of civilians and soldiers alike and whilst this is a story albeit one close to the knuckles, those of us who are awake to the corruption of political leaders know that this goes on.
Careful Mr Alden you might end up on some government hit list!!!!!

An excellent follow up to the first book, although primarily set in the one location the book takes a turn against political conspiracy and enters the sort of genre I didn't think I'd enjoy reading but I smashed it inside 3 days. As gripping as all the others.

Not even close to being as good as the first book.
