An unexpected confrontation forces a wanted military commando with special abilities out of hiding to protect the lives of nine innocent children.Commander Ben Egan is a super soldier, a top-secret military experiment gone horribly wrong. The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency created him, gave him incredible powers. Now they want him back, dead or alive.After miraculously avoiding capture, Ben has created a new life for himself as a handyman at a small orphanage in La Fortuna, Costa Rica. But when he learns of threats being made against the children by a ruthless drug lord, his protective instinct kicks in. Saving the nine innocent lives from unwanted violence will mean exposing himself and risking capture. But it's a chance he's willing to take.FBI Special Agents Jordan Quest and Chris Hanover have joined the DARPA capture/kill team tasked with finding the commander. Moments before moving in to arrest Ben Egan, Jordan learns that her children have been kidnapped a continent away, forcing her to form an unlikely alliance with the fugitive.With the DARPA breach team ready to take action, Jordan must choose between two unimaginable options: face the possibility of going to prison for the rest of her life for treason or leave her children in the hands of a demented and deadly predator.The stakes couldn't be higher or the danger closer as Jordan prepares to sacrifice herself for the family she loves.Nine Lives is the fourth novel in Gary Winston Brown's pulse-pounding thriller series featuring FBI Special Agents Jordan Quest and Chris Hanover.The Jordan Quest novels are described as tightly written, cat-and-mouse, edge-of-your-seat thrillers mixed with witty dialogue and high-octane action adventure. If you like stories featuring a tough-as-nails female protagonist and bad guy's you'll love to hate, this series should be at the top of your 'must-read' list.Jordan and her adventures will appeal to readers who enjoy crime, police procedural, mystery, thriller and suspense, psychic, serial killer and FBI thriller books and movies.WHAT FANS ARE SAYING ABOUT JORDAN QUEST..."What a great story.
