Warrior: Book 2 in the Freelancer Series Terry Irving

Publisher Marketing: "Warrior" begins in 1973 with a .50 caliber machine gun round slamming overhead as Rick Putnam and Eve Buffalo Calf are walking in supplies to the American Indian Movement militants besieged in Wounded Knee. In a matter of hours, they find themselves on the run from distrustful AIM members, US Marshalls and the FBI, and a mysterious group that appears to be attacking both sides. Rick accepts a sacred mission from a militant who saved his life back in Vietnam and that leads him into battle against a cult determined to destroy the reservation where Eve grew up. As in "Courier," the first book in the "Freelancer" series, "Warrior" is set in the gritty, dangerous 1970's when ordinary Americans thought they were being paranoid when they feared faceless, nameless forces--forces that were very real and extremely dangerous. Rick, Eve, and his computer hacker housemates are forced to battle with an unholy mixture of corporate, government, and cult fanatics as they struggle to rescue their families and save themselves. If you lived through the 70's, it will bring back sharp and often painful memories, if you didn't, you'll get an entirely new perspective on the world of "groovy" clothes and "Have a Nice Day" smile buttons. "Warrior" is another non-stop, high-speed thrill ride from Terry Irving so don't start reading it if you've got that important meeting in the morning because you'll be up all night--desperate to see what's next. Contributor Bio:  Irving, Terry Terry Irving was hired as a motorcycle courier for ABC News in 1973 and this led to a 40 year career in television news (and the idea behind his first book, Courier.) He has won 4 Emmys and multiple Peabodys, DuPonts, and Tellys while working at ABC, Fox, MSNBC, and CNN. In addition, he has been in on the ground floor of three technology startups, developed many of the online media taken for granted today (like the newsblog, ) and written for nationally-known anchors and correspondents. After publishing his debut novel in May 2014, he watched as his publisher died a horrible death in June 2014. After a year spent fighting over rights, Terry formed a Publishing Company, Ronin Robot Press, in November 2014 and is well on his way to publishing four of his own books and as many as 20 from other independent authors by the end of 2015. As I always say, I still live in Bethesda Maryland outside DC because my wife and my dog refuse to live anywhere else.
