Book Synopsis

CIA operative Dewey Andreas is America's last line of defense when terrorists take over Manhattan, targeting the U.N. and the President himself in The Island, the latest in this New York Times bestselling series by Ben Coes.

America is about to face the deadliest terrorist attack on it's soil since 9/11. Iran has been planning a revenge attack for years, with three goals in mind. Bring America to its knees. Assassinate the popular U.S. President J. P. Dellenbaugh. And neutralize their most successful agent, Dewey Andreas.

The first pre-emptive attack against Dewey Andreas fails but it worries the head of the CIA enough that he sends Dewey out of town and off the grid. But as intelligence analysts work as fast as they can to unravel the chatter on terrorist networks, Muhammed el-Shakib, head of Iran's military and intelligence agency, launches a bold strike. When the President arrives in New York to address the U.N., embedded terrorist assets blow up the bridges and tunnels that connect Manhattan to the mainland. Taking control of the island with it's hidden forces, they race to the U.N. in search of Dellenbaugh and to launch an even deadlier attack that will wreak unimaginable destruction on the country itself.

While a shocked country struggles to mount a counter-attack, a hopeless, outmanned and outgunned Dewey Andreas sneaks onto the island of Manhattan to fight a seemingly impossible battle.

    As I set aside another chapter in the life of Dewey Andreas… I ponder the thought of the waiting wait before Coes next installment in this AWESOME thriller series. In the mean time I’ll wait with the next adventure with Jack (NMI) Reacher….

    Did Coes forget what happened in his last book before he wrote this one? For example, his VP?

    Who really wrote this? It sure wasn’t Coes. A Lt. Colonel in a SEAL team? And what manual and semimanual on a rifle? I have never met or worked with an operator who uses a shoulder rig for a pistol while in a tactical set up. Great concept, but the errors in execution just make it awful.
