Or will one false step set the entire island ablaze?

Task Force Valor
Explosive Ordnance Disposal–The Bomb Squad

As the global war on terror heats up, the U.S. deploys a team of highly trained special operators overseas to locate and neutralize threats, bringing EOD expertise to dangerous missions that have no room for error.

A DEADLY EXPLOSIVE
A new specialty explosive is on the black market: ITEB looks like water, but when it’s exposed to air, the effects are lethal! The United States government is frantic to keep it from our shores. Staff Sergeant Euripides “Rip” Rubio knows how destructive ITEB can be. He has already risked his life to thwart a horrific terrorist plot involving the chemical. Now Task Force Valor heads to Panama, on the trail of an arms dealer who plans to use ITEB to make a killing–literally.

AN ADVENTURE ABROAD
Fernanda Lerida is a University of Panama grad student who jumps at the chance to join a biological expedition to a mysterious former prison island. But the snakes, bugs, and crocodiles are soon the least of her worries as the group stumbles upon something they were not meant to see. To make matters worse, Fernanda soon finds herself alone and being pursued by an unseen foe.

A RISKY RESCUE
When Rip’s path collides with Fernanda’s, they find themselves caught in the midst of a brutal turf war. Can they use the chaos to their advantage, or will one false step set the entire island ablaze?

“Island Inferno is a boy-meets-girl story. But in Chuck Holton’s world, boy meets girl in the middle of a jungle at 25 mph, hanging under a parachute—a reserve parachute—with an assault rifle strapped across his chest. You’d better plan on reading this in one sitting. And once you’re done, you’d better give yourself time for your pulse to calm down.” — Tom Morrisey, author of Deep Blue and Dark Fathom

“Chuck Holton’s remarkable storytelling ability and military expertise make Island Inferno a must-read. Suspense, intrigue, and God’s guiding hand permeate every page. The Task Force Valor series rocks!” — Mark Mynheir, author of The Void

“The years he spent as an Airborne Ranger bring a gritty, heart-pounding authenticity to Chuck Holton’s writing. He was in the middle of live combat, which is why there is an air of believability to the exploits of Task Force Valor. Strap yourself in and hold on for the adventure!” — Dave Meurer, award-winning author of Mistake it Like a Man
