The Spy Guys and Gals page
for my books notes that series protagonist Avery is something of a
cypher, but the bad guys are very good and given a lot of attention.
This is deliberate on my part, and the reason why is perhaps the subject
for a future blog post.
This trend is set to continue in the next two books.
SCORPION:
GRAY ZONE will heavily feature a real-life apocalyptic Russian neo-Nazi
terrorist group called The Savior. More on that later.
First up, though, will be SCORPION: ROGUE STATE.
Here,
the primary antagonist is a former SEAL Team Six/CIA Ground Branch
operator turned war criminal turned mercenary in the employ of the
Saudis, after being blacklisted by Western government agencies and
private military contractors. His work for the Saudis includes training
terrorists to strike inside Iran, staging false flag attacks on Arab oil
tankers, organizing an aborted coup in Qatar, running guns to al-Qaeda,
and leading a mercenary army in Yemen. Psychotic, self-serving, and
amoral, Rogue State will ultimately find Brett DeVane setting his sights
on a Pakistani freighter delivering a covert shipment of nuclear
warheads to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
