When your enemy is not the enemy you think –the chase becomes even more terrifying
They’re calling it the worst terrorist attack on U.S. soil since 9/11; hundreds are dead and thousands missing in the rubble, including well-known celebrities, of what was once the iconic Paramount Studios in Los Angeles. Various terrorist groups have claimed responsibility and the LAPD doesn’t have a single lead – until, that is, Jake Chase enters the picture.
This is the introduction to Robert Santoro’s debut thriller, Wrath (Sterlinghouse Publisher), where the action begins and doesn’t end until the very last page! First in ‘The Deadly Sins Series’ featuring Jake Chase – derring-do, adrenaline junkie, who is part of the FBI’s anti-terrorism unit and whose boyish good looks seem at odds with his ferocious determination to solve a case. On the fast track to success, Jake reports directly to the Deputy Director, his old friend and mentor, and has one-on-one conversations with the President of the United States. Other than his job, only one thing is more important to Jake and that is Diana, his beautiful wife, and fitting into her world of wealth, inherited when her corporate raider father was murdered two years ago in his palatial Malibu beach home.
The producer at Paramount knew the bombing would be considered an act of terrorism – in fact, he was counting on it. A born manipulator, he knows how to get what he wants from people, especially women, and believes nothing – including the FBI – can stop him. What he doesn’t count on is Jack Chase who believes the evidence doesn’t add up and is going on his gut instincts that tell him no terrorist group was responsible for this tragedy.
As Chase embarks on a manhunt that takes him from Los Angeles to New York, Dubai and the Cayman Islands, time is rapidly running out and he knows he has to work fast to thwart another attack. Knowing it doesn’t always pay to be the best at what you do – what he doesn’t know is how the outcome will implicate high ranking members of the FBI and could cost him his family, job, and yes – even his life!

TIP SHEET:
Publishers Weekly Review: “…Wrath is a fast-paced FBI terrorist thriller …In a movie-ready opening scene, replete with taunting one-liners and over-the-top derring-do…Chase pursues Al Qaeda through the streets of Manhattan…in a hunt for a Dubai terrorist determined to avenge his family’s death. Santoro delights in old-school espionage clichés: fast cars, giant houses, cool brand name technology, a wife described as “the perfect chick,” and preternatural intuition regarding the enemy. Though Jake’s seeming invulnerability can short-circuit the suspense, Santoro tackles his material with obvious energy and affection, hitting all the bases-and then some- in record time.”
Receiving rave reader reviews:
Cris Rodriguez: “…fun, sexy and fast-paced – was perfect poolside read…it’s a keeper for my library.”
Steven Solomon: “Best read in a long time! Action packed, good story and hard to put down. I connected with the characters and followed the ‘roller coaster’ with each eagerly anticipated chapter. Can’t wait for the next one…”
