What makes a good action hero? Leaping buildings in a single bound? Dodging bullets? Solving all the world's problems with the force of sheer wits? Or doing the impossible while remaining vulnerable and human?
Join David Annandale this Thursday, February 10 at 7:00 p.m. at Whodunit? Mystery Bookstore, 165 Lilac Street for a discussion and reading from the latest of his action-thrillers, The Valedictorians.
In the third episode of Annandale's series, vigilante soldier and anti-hero Jen Blaylock has just left Russian arms company Kornukopia in flames. Now she's having second thoughts about letting CIA Deputy Director of Operations, Joe Chapel, live. From his hospital bed, Chapel plots to kill Blaylock and his former ally, Sam Reed, the President of the United States. To do his all-American duty, he enlists the help of South American dictator General Jorge Quintero. To stop him, Blaylock will have to raise her own army and wage war right to the steps of the Capitol building. But this time, she finds herself questioning her thirst for destruction which - until now - she thought necessary to save innocents from tyranny.
