"FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

A Bridge to TreacheryPRLog (Press Release) - Jun 23, 2011 - Brighton Publishing LLC announced the release of “A Bridge to Treachery,” by author Larry Crane. This suspense-laden gnashing of guns, ammo, terrorism and deceit is now available as an e-book through Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and other leading retailers.
Retired Colonel Lou Christopher is an ex-Army Ranger, contentedly working as a New York investment broker. After being assigned a number of lucrative accounts and becoming accustomed to living the good life, he discovers nothing good comes without a price.
When his former military skills are requested under a threat of losing everything he has, Col. Christopher soon discovers the price may be too high to pay. Handed a group of misfits to assemble into a military strike team, Christopher is coerced into leading the team on a mission of domestic terrorism.
His strike team is discovered; the mission is compromised. A deadly firefight erupts and only Christopher and a beautiful female member of his team survive. Was a terrible mistake made, with Christopher to blame—or was his team the victim of an ultimate act of betrayal?
With his strike force decimated, Christopher and his lone teammate turn from hunted to hunters. As time quickly runs out, they struggle to use their unique set of skills to exact a decisive revenge on those responsible for this treachery. Will New York—will anyone—survive?
“This is modern day John Rambo, with every bit the quality of writing and fantastic characters that David Morrell brought to his classic shining through in Larry Crane’s thriller,” said Kathie McGuire, director of Brighton Publishing LLC. “Larry Crane has created a lasting hero with Lou Christopher, someone that readers will identify with because he is tough, all-American, and ready to defend what he believes in.”
