About This Book
The Typhoon Sanction, now Finalist in Best Thriller Fiction at the Global E-Book Awards! This novel reflects the culmination of DeMott's life in and around the world of intelligence, coupled with his decades of writing thrillers. This deftly crafted novel of intrigue, revenge, and survival is nothing less than a covert operation in which diversionary tactics are expertly employed by DeMott through his protagonist, Jay Stewart – a CIA Field Officer who operates alone, determined not to add any more deaths to his tally while undertaking the most dangerous mission of the Agency. Robert Ludlum graciously hosted the launch party for DeMott's International Bestseller The Fund (Vapors in hard cover), and DeMott wrote The Typhoon Sanction as his homage to that great novelist, with the expectation and belief that Mr. Ludlum would thoroughly enjoy it Mixing spies and counterespionage with old vendettas and small town murders, this novel pits the protagonist, ex-CIA agent Jay Stewart, against his Chinese enemy Phun , who hunts him halfway around the world to the Outer Banks of North Carolina. Stewart, a master of misdirection who manipulates key people to do his dirty work, provides a whodunit element to this international story as the reader tries to make sense of four mysterious small-town murders. The more obvious the truth appears, the further the reader gets from it, ultimately being captured by the same manipulative skills that made Stewart such a successful Field Officer. Be careful or CIA Field Officer Cruiser will manipulate YOU in this story of vengeance, murder, and global terrorism.
