Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
A novel inspired by #1 New York Times best-selling author Mark Greaney's Audible Original drama, Armored .
Joshua Duffy is a Close Protection Agent--a professional bodyguard--and he's one of the world's elite operatives. That is, he was until his last mission in Lebanon. Against all odds, Josh got his primary out alive, but the cost was high. Josh lost his lower left leg.
There's not much call for an elite bodyguard with such an injury. So, Josh has to support his family working as a mall cop in New Jersey. For a man like Josh, this is purgatory on earth, but miracles can occur even in Paramus.
A lucky run-in with an old comrade promises to get Josh back in the field for one last job. The UN is sending a peace mission into the Sierra Madre mountains in Mexico, an area so dangerous it's known as Espinazo del Diablo-- the Devil's Spine. Only a fool would think they could broker peace between the homicidal drug cartels in the region, and only a madman would sign on to keep those fools alive.
After losing part of his left leg, former bodyguard Joshua Duffy takes a job as a mall cop to support his family, but runs into an old friend who has a much more intriguing job offer, to join a mission into the Sierra Madre mountains in Mexico to broker peace between the drug cartels in the region.
Series information from Goodreads.
Joshua Duffy was a Close Protection Agent-- a professional bodyguard, and one of the world's elite operatives... until his last mission in Lebanon. He got his primary out alive, but the cost was the loss of Josh's lower left leg. There's not much call for a high-end guardian with such an injury, so now Josh is supporting his family working as a mall cop in Virginia. A lucky run-in reunites Josh with an old comrade who offers him a shot at a lucrative job: the UN is sending a peace mission into the Sierra Madre mountains in Mexico-- an area so dangerous it's known as Espinazo del Diablo, the Devil's Spine. Just two problems: Only a fool would think they could broker peace between the homicidal drug cartels in the region, and only a madman would sign on to keep those fools alive. - adapted from back cover
