Extended description

The half-novel (35,000 words) thriller, Alive From New York, is the first book in the series, Terrorist Chronicles.

Usama bin Laden is dead. But who exactly was Usama bin Laden?

Reporter Jamie Marks has the scoop of a lifetime, an interview with the man now regarded as the world's most wanted terrorist. She would kill - or die - for the story. But she's not the only one interested in how it turns out. The FBI has her under surveillance. The CIA has its own plans for her. And then, she disappears.

FBI Agent James Robb can't understand how they lost her, but that will soon be the least of his worries. A car bomb at the Bureau parking garage, then a dead agent in upstate New York, tell him there's a lot more to this story. As he investigates, he becomes convinced that something insidious is happening in the frigid altitude of the Adirondack mountains. But the battle he's engaging has a lot more than two sides, and the price of finding answers might be more than he can pay.

Good start but the end seemed to just end - quite disappointing.

Alive from New York is a fast paced action thriller, one of those hard to put down stories. The story never gets dull and it is very well written.
Highly recommended reading.

I'm not a huge fan of the political thriller genre, preferring to confine my reading to horror/sci-fi, but I listened to New World Orders and thoroughly enjoyed Ed's work. When I found out he was coming out with a new work I was excited. This didn't disappoint.

This is a tightly written and gripping story. It's very timely and well worth that buck you've been saving for your next e-book fix.
