"We become important only because of our decisions," Katya Volkova advised him. What she meant by this; Iraqi-war veteran Paul Drake wasn't quite sure at first. In this fast-paced sequel to Against the Dusk, Paul confronts a dangerous world of shifting global power politics and illicit weapons deals. A cat and mouse game to ferret out Russian-backed arms dealer Bogan Zoidze leads Paul, Katya, and a cast of other memorable characters to war-torn Syria, the posh avenues of Paris, ancient Black Sea ports, and hidden island retreats in Malta and Sicily. Beneath the Purple Dawn is a thought-provoking, contemporary thriller that confronts the reader with taut, vivid drama while also wrestling with some of the most relevant and pressing issues of our time. Brett Andrew Strange, a former CIA intelligence officer, crafts a compelling tale grounded in an intimate knowledge of intelligence tradecraft and the sobering geopolitical realities driving today's new Cold War. The narrative's action-packed finale resonates long after the last page is turned. Praise for Against the Dusk, the first book in the series: "Strange has a natural sense of how to keep a story moving, and he briskly gets to work assembling all of the moving parts in an engaging way... the novel reveals itself to be an accomplished political espionage thriller-and it's one that will surely appeal to readers who prefer scene-stealing action to quiet moments of introspection." "Over the course of the story, Strange keeps the action taut and focused as the unlikely duo revel in the heat of a simmering mutual attraction and also combine their skill sets to outwit clever operatives who are always hot on their trail...a frenetic indulgence for fans of espionage adventures." -- Kirkus Reviews
