Summary
At the start of Ringo's darkly violent fifth Kildar novel
(after 2006's
Unto the Breach), Mike Jenkins, who's no longer a
navy SEAL but still the Kildar, or feudal warlord, of the
preternaturally competent Keldara warriors, withdraws into
grief after the death of Gretchen Mahona, his lover and
fellow soldier. When the U.S. president asks the Kildar to
help track down shipments of nerve gas that jihadis are
smuggling into Florida, he refuses, but gives permission for
his subordinates to accept the mission. After they walk into
an ambush, he's spurred to action, returning to center stage
as a dangerous man whose humanity is in peril. It's up to the
Keldara to guide their leader and friend back into the light
and heal the wounds of his soul. Ringo counterbalances the
angst with the joyous sangfroid of the pagan Keldara, who
have once again become the warriors they were meant to be.
(July)
Sequel to
Ghost,
Kildar,
Choosers of the Slain and
Unto the Breach. Heart-sick over the deaths of so many of his Keldara
followers, and one in particular, former SEAL Mike Harmon,
hero of
Ghost,
Kildar and
Choosers of the Slain, decides to sit this one out.
WMDs headed for the US no longer matter to the Kildar. But
when his best friend and intel specialist both are seriously
wounded in an ambush aimed at him, the Kildar gets his
gameface back on. Mike has always said that he's not a nice guy, and he's
about to prove it to a boatload of terrorists and Colombian
drug dealers. Set in the Bahamas and Florida Keys,
A Deeper Blue is a fast moving thriller that never
slows down from the first page. With the return of some old
faces, the action-packed novel proves, once again, the adage
that sometimes it takes some very bad people to do good
things.From Publishers Weekly
