This third installment of the Slip of the Hand series, Deep in the Shadows, will keep you turning the page while rooting for Jack Bolton, a former Navy SEAL who, while on a personal mission to avenge his sister's rape and murder, gets caught up in a web of deceit, political corruption, and a Deep State plan by a shadowy group of global industrialist billionaires to undercut American democracy - a conspiracy that leads directly to the Oval Office. In his quest for justice, Jack has made powerful enemies: from a New York mob boss to a rogue CIA agent to the President of the United States, so he is in a race against time to both take down those who destroyed his family and to save America as we know it before those enemies - and his past - catch up to him in a riveting conclusion. Slip of the Hand III: Deep in the Shadows is an action-packed thriller that reflects the true-to-life danger of partisan politics, personal greed, and a thirst for absolute power.

SLIP OF THE HAND is the story of a man seeking justice in a world where he saw no choice but to take the law into his own hands, regardless of the consequences. Jeff Keller opened his eyes after thinking back, as he had countless times before, to that horrible night six years ago. It was the last time he saw his fianc e, Laura Weston, alive. He loved her and now he was sitting in prison, serving a life sentence, framed for her murder by government insiders. Navy SEAL Jack Bolton has barely survived his last special operations mission in the Taliban-controlled mountain ranges of Afghanistan when he receives the devastating news that his sister, a college student, is missing. He immediately returns to Massachusetts and begins an exhaustive search to find her. When he learns that she has been murdered and that the police and FBI can't develop the case for lack of evidence, he makes a life-changing decision to deal with her killers himself. That ostensibly clear-cut decision takes him on a journey that he could never have anticipated. Along the way, he discovers a shocking government plot and eventually finds himself the object of a massive manhunt, not only for taking the law into his own hands, but for what he might know. The Mafia, a Mexican cartel, and powerful government officials all want him dead. Meanwhile, Jeff Keller, serving a life sentence in prison, might just hold the key to both their futures.
