The Valedictorians

by David Annandale

tagged: action & adventure
Description

Russian arms company Kornukopia is in flames, and the one-woman war machine, Jen Blaylock, is having second thoughts about letting CIA Deputy Director of Operations Joe Chapel live. From his hospital bed in northern Europe, Chapel, self-proclaimed saviour of the USA, 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.
The third episode in the Jen Blaylock series, following Crownfire (Ravenstone 2002) and Kornukopia (Ravenstone 2004), The Valedictorians finds Blaylock torn between her need for retribution and her responsibility to Flanagan, her lover, and the men following her into the breach.
Will Blaylock drown in her unquenchable thirst for revenge, or find redemption with all debts paid? As the body count rises and the action explodes off the page, David Annandale's epic action-thriller will have you glued to your seat until the dust finally settles.
