The Trident's Justice
A failed black-ops mission in eastern Europe has retired NYPD detective and Navy SEAL Michael Keough recalled back to Washington. It’s there that a random encounter with a gunman leads Keough to uncover a conspiracy targeting the highest levels of the United States government. The case has local law enforcement, the FBI, and the Secret Service on high alert to stop a potential presidential assassination. But Keough is not convinced of the gunman’s true intentions—and the deeper he digs, the more disturbing the plot becomes.
With our democracy on the line, Keough searches for the truth. But by the time he finds it, lives will be lost, and he suddenly realizes he may have put a loved one in harm’s way. So Keough will stop at nothing to deliver justice as only he can—if those responsible aren’t already out of his reach for good.

Breath-taking action!
What a catch-your-breath kind of story in The Trident’s Justice by George P. Norris. This is the second book in this series, and definitely not the first book of Norris' that I've read. I enjoyed each story, and I really like Michael Keough. He's a retired NYPD detective and Navy SEAL, and he's on a mission. He needs to uncover a government conspiracy as well as save the country as we kn ow it, but that is never an easy task. The story is full of action, and intrigue, as well as humanity, as Keough proves it to himself and others. Another case of saving the red, white, and blue, and it is magnificently written. Whatever this author writes, I want to read. This book deserves a second read! (And maybe more). The author brings the reader on a superb journey. This is a magnificent plot that kept this reader turning the pages. A definite attention grabber, so much I couldn't put it down. Both thrilling and intriguing, all the way to the end. The Trident’s Justice is a definite recommendation by Amy's Bookshelf Reviews. I read this book to give my unbiased and honest review. Amy's Bookshelf Reviews recommends that anyone who reads this book, to also write a review.

The trident series
George P Norris writes an incredibly good thriller. His protagonist is Former Navy seal becomes an NYPD detective and then a CIA off the books operative. The characters are really likable and the action is consistent and strong and both of his books were really hard to put down. Honestly, I hope Mr. Norris writes a lot more in this particular Genre even though he too is an NYPD retired cop and probably feels more comfortable in that genre. Just a hint as to the trident series he is using both his skills as I may be seal and also investigating things that are tied together with the black ops.
I will say George you write a great book. I’ve read what I consider some of the top military, thriller and spy, thriller authors, and you are absolutely now one of the best.

Retired NYPD detective and Navy SEAL Michael Keough takes us on a non-stop adventure. I love reading books where the plot follows a quick pace, and the reader has no time to get bored. Conspiracy theories and a beloved hero, do I detect a trace of Brad Meltzer in this story? This may be why I enjoyed this book so much.

Another Good Story
Just finished reading this book and my mouth fell open and I'm thinking oh my goodness. I enjoy the way this author ties everything together and has you shaking your head as the story unfolds. I can't wait for the next one to see what Mickey and Cal do next.

It’s refreshing when an author writes a story that has a background of first-hand experience. And what experience the author has had! After twenty years working for the New York Police Department, it is beyond question that he knows what he is talking about when he includes information about weapons, police procedures, police hierarchy, inter-agency collaboration (or not), political manoeuvrings, and criminal personalities. His background has also enabled him to draw on knowledge from contacts regarding connections with military contractors and special forces operatives.
All of that makes this a riveting and exciting book, from the first pages dealing with a military black ops mission that goes wrong, to a seemingly random shooting attempt by a man with Russian gang connections. I don’t want to give the game away by saying more, but I was impressed by the author’s ability to tie everything together to make a satisfactory whole, with no loose ends. The writing is excellent, the tension gripping, and the fact that the author has written several successful books is testament to his ability to tell fascinating tales.

Good meld of cops, military, and contractors.

Justice
Because of the ending I gave it a four because you left everything up in the air did the man kill Julie or steal the necklace? Not a very good ending.

The book was enjoyable with plenty of twists to the plot but leaves one hanging, wondering if there will be a third book in the series

Plenty of action
Fast moving and well written, without the Naval protocol errors primarily of the first book and still a bit weak on firearms, but still a winner

I thought I read where this was a 2 book series, number 1 & 2 were very good but it looks like there has to be at 3. I need to check! Love the characters!!

Justice or revenge? Quite a thrilling story of black ops and more about the Russian mafia. A hook at the very end for the next book.

This book reminded me a of the Reacher series by the Child brothers, despite its protagonist not being a Reacher rip-off. The narrative is fast paced yet straight forward, right down to the action scenes. I did feel the opening was longer than it needed to be - I enjoyed the opening and was disappointed that the rest of the book was following a different arc. Despite this, this was a book I was excited to return to between reads.
