Treason

A Novel

By: Newt Gingrich, Pete Earley

Narrated by: Robert Fass

Major Brooke Grant must track down the double agent who is infiltrating the U.S. government in this international thriller from influential politician Newt Gingrich and Pulitzer Prize finalist Pete Earley.

Brooke Grant has been waging war against terrorism since her parents were murdered during 9/11, keenly aware that violence transcends borders. But after a coordinated attack on the president at a Washington power broker's funeral, she realizes that the enemy is closer than she'd ever imagined, hiding in plain sight. The Falcon has gained a weapon no terrorist has ever wielded before: an American-born traitor burrowed inside the U.S. government itself.

Major Grant's deadly chess match with the Falcon turns personal when he issues a fatwa against her and those she loves. Can she unmask the traitor and stop the Falcon's most skilled assassin sent to kill her before he strikes? Or will she fall victim to betrayal by a false friend in this gripping story of treachery, courage, and the patriotic fight against evil?

In this realistic tale of modern-day treason, a nation fights for its life against an internal threat: a fanatical jihadist who uses liberty as a shield while trying to destroy the civilization created in its image. With decades of knowledge in national security and politics, only Newt Gingrich and Pete Earley could spin such a vivid mix of reality and fiction -- a page-turner that dares readers to guess where the line between the two is crossed.

Critic reviews

"Heart pounding, TREASON is a great Washington thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat --- filled with insider detail that only a writing team like Speaker Newt Gingrich and journalist Pete Earley could provide."—Daniel Silva, #1 New York Times bestselling author

The best political thrillers are written by those who have walked the walk, and Newt Gingrich's Duplicity is one of the best.—Nelson DeMille, #1 New York Times bestselling author, on DUPLICITY

An exciting page-turner about a presidential race and the face of terrorism.—Sean Hannity, #1 New York Times bestselling author and host of Hannity on FOX, on DUPLICITY

It's about time!

I loved this book! It's about time someone wrote about the realities of the evil in the world and the evil within America. This book is captivating from beginning to end. Adventure! Intrigue! This book kept me on the edge of my seat!

Main characters not very likable

Except for Walks Many Miles, I didn't care for the edginess of the main characters. Although some were altruistic, they weren't very likable.

Excellent - Nothing like I anticipated

As others noted, this is the audio version of a page-turner with enough twists and turns to keep the listener interested and guessing. There are a few predictable items since it is part of a series. However, this is one of those books that if you listen to it while driving or flying, you don't want to reach your destination too soon or want to be delayed in route to have more listening time.

Written in the third person there is more than enough believability and unique characters creating an interesting political thriller. Hopefully, the third in the series is released soon.

Nice Work!!

A book that makes you ask your self if this is happening right now in our own country. And if you really look at the past. You can see it happening. And we should really start paying attention!!

Excellent

This would make a great movie! So timely and very believable characters. I highly recommend
