Blood from a Shadow

Here’s the set-up:

10% OF ALL BOOK PROFITS ARE DONATED TO THE SIXTY-NINTH REGIMENT HISTORICAL TRUST

November 2012.

24/7 Presidential election focus, but when Security outranks Democracy, fact may be stranger than fiction.

The Middle East is still untamed and Iran teases the nuclear button. Time to finish the game, they say, it is now or never.
Good Americans would be grateful, but they won’t ever need to know. And the Administration would be grateful, but they really don’t want to know, there is an election to be won.

FROM THE BACK COVER:

2012. War weary Americans hail the endgame in Iraq and Afghanistan.
But the old enemy, Iran, is more dangerous than ever.
So the war on terror continues, but it must be kept in the shadows now. The Presidential machines cannot allow a mistake, there is an election to be won.

Con Maknazpy is weary too, still searching for his own peace. A hero in his native New York’s famous 69th Regiment, he just wants to retreat into the shadows of the streets he knows so well.

But Maknazpy is no ordinary man, he has been anointed with destiny. It’s in his blood and in the shadows of his soul. And the ghosts of the past and the future mark out that destiny, in blood. Blood that takes him to Ireland, Rome and Istanbul before he finds his own truth in the shadows of his Yonkers childhood.
Maknazpy’s destiny is to be a savior, but can he save himself?

***

It’s the old story. Deadly enemies, cultures so alien that neither can tolerate the other’s very existence. The essence of ancient myth and legends, from the epic Shahnameh of Iran in the east, to the Táin of the Irish in the west. We have always created such righteous truths to validate our own worlds, so that our way is virtuous, theirs is immoral.

Maknazpy knows about the War on Terror. Nuclear Iran. Homeland Security.
If he survives long enough, Maknazpy can finally decide which truth, which world, is real.

Think Jim Thompson, James M Cain, Chester Himes and Eric Ambler. Reality is warped by confusion and lies, and the hero is always the last to know.
