Als der Code ausgesprochen war, trat der Mann vor und schüttelte meine Hand. Sein Händedruck war fest und die Auf-Ab-Bewegung drohte, meinen Arm auszukugeln. „Ich bin Jean-Claude“, stellte er sich lächelnd vor. „Jean-Claude Quiniou.

by Marlowe Dan JI had lived so long on the wrong side of the law I felt out of place as a special undercover agent for Uncle Sam. But I had no choice. One of the top brass in U.S. Intelligence had my number. So we made a deal - his silence for my services in tracking down and infiltrating a gang of Mid-Eastern terrorists. Besides, I had a personal interest in this job. They had stole $75,000 from me. So there I was - Earl Drake, bank robber and safecracker, playing on the side of the angels to outwit a bunch of fanatic Turks who were using their embassy for cover. I started with a Turkish delight. Talia. I conned her into leading me from the bedroom to their inner sanctum. I wished I hadn’t. One look at the cold, bulbous eyes in the mound of flesh seated on the cushioned sofa before me told me I had stepped in the path of a rattlesnake. And if I couldn’t charm it, I was a dead Drake.

Operation Hebron
by Eric JordanSome truths are best told under the guise of fiction! The implications are immense; the power brokers are scurrying. Who is Hebron - and will he pull off the most audacious mission in the history of espionage? More daring and damning than Watergate and Irangate! It's an election year and political tension and media hype are mounting fast. A foreign power has launched a high-risk covert operation to have its top agent - a prominent U.S. Senator - elected President of the United States. The womanizing American Ambassador to the European Union is found dead in his Brussels mansion. The Iranians and Iraqis are suspected. Heads are going to roll. Meet Brenda Straus and Jackie Markovic, two of the most determined women you'll ever encounter - one, a whiz-kid Special Agent for the FBI, the other a lethally-seductive, moist-mouthed assassin - as they battle it out in a geo-political chess game that just may change the balance of world power. Written by a former top-level U.S. spy, Operation Hebron takes you from the thickly-upholstered nerve centers of Washington, D.C., the spartan quarters of Jerusalem's brain trust, and a secluded dacha outside of Moscow, to the seedy bars of Brussels and a sun-drenched hide-away in Mallorca. Across time-zones and secret satellite transmissions author Eric Jordan offers a thrill ride through the corridors of power, and uncovers the most sensitive operations of the FBI, the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service, (SVR, ex-KGB), and the mythic Israeli Mossad. As the threat of international terror edges closer to home, Operation Hebron offers an unprecedented glance through a private window on which the shades are usually drawn!
