In the tradition of David Morrell's million-copy-selling 'The Fifth Profession', this is the tale of the Protector, a super-bodyguard hunting down a rogue client who controls a new and powerful weapon. It promises to be the most imitated thriller for years to come.
Cavanaugh, a former member of Delta Force who now works as a protector for those rich enough to afford him and his team, is hired by a brilliant scientist named Prescott who needs protection from a powerful drug lord seeking the highly addictive drug he has invented. At least, that is what Cavanaugh is led to believe.
After Cavanaugh trains the scientist in escape and evasion, the unthinkable occurs: Cavanaugh's team is viciously attacked and entirely wiped out - and Prescott seem to be in collusion with the attackers. Now Cavanaugh must fight against his own tactics and anticipate his enemy's every move while suffering the consequences of the real secret Prescott is hiding: a unique weapon that induces fear.
With more spectacular action, surveillance techniques, tactics and mind manipulation than any of his previous books, 'The Protector' confirms Morrell as the master of high-action suspense.
