BOOKS BY SCOTT SHINBERG:
Genre: FICTION / Espionage
The series has enjoyed some good movement thus far, and as of October 2021 is up to 4 books, with Books 5-6 planned and in the works for 2022. All the marketing programs will get kicked into high gear once the pandemic nonsense ends and the market gets back to at least close to normal. We have very high hopes for this series' success.
The distinctive crack-crack of AK-47 rifle fire aimed at the sprinting CIA officer grew louder as the platoon of pursuers raced forward for the kill. The bullets’ sharp reports echoed in waves along the narrow canyon’s rock walls.
The powerful combination of adrenaline and the human brain’s instinctual need to survive powered the American’s life-or-death footrace north through the ancient Iranian mountain pass. As each 7.62mm bullet slammed into the dusty rock walls of the old smugglers’ passage, shards of superheated lead spewed in all directions. Each fragment searched for soft American flesh to shred.
Shouts from the two-dozen Iranian tribesmen rose in pitch behind the American runner and grew louder with each stride. The barks of their leader motivated his militiamen to catch the thief who dared steal from their sultan’s courier.
The narrow pass of timeworn rock formed from compressed volcanic ash weaved through northwestern Iran. It wound its way through the region where historically fluid borders with Turkey, Armenia and Azerbaijan meet in a tangle of map lines whose shapes exist for reasons long-lost to time. The tribesmen pursuing the American knew the trail well. For millennia, they and their ancestors smuggled weapons, drugs, alcohol and slaves through it to eager markets on the other side—in Azerbaijan.
The sprinting thief threw foot after boot-clad foot and pushed a gloved hand off the edge of the narrow pass’s fifty-foot-high walls to spin around a sharp turn. A quarter mile ahead, which felt more like a marathon, the border offered the hope of safety. If everything went as planned—never a certainty in this CIA officer’s line of work—a ride home waited there, safely inside the far friendlier Nakhchivan Republic of Azerbaijan.
