The main character of this story is Jason Peters a former Delta Force

the government deniability. Peters attempts to capture an arms dealer
named Aziz Saud Alazar. Peters winds up with a laptop computor. His house
is burned down and attempts are made on his life. The villain is the head of an enviromental group named Eco. Their leader is Boris Eglov a former

Eglov is planning on using a new gas called "Breath Of Earth" to conduct
an assassination on the President of the United States.Their pursuit of Eglov takes them all over the globe from the United States ,the Dominican Republic to Sicily. They even discover in Baia. All in all an exciting book to read. I have now bought the Sinai Secret.

Coming on the heels of Barry Eisler's Requiem for an Assassin, I was pleasantly surprised by this book... mostly because I didn't expect it to be another non-official operative story.
Jason Peters is an American living abroad---he's also an assassin with a love of painting seascapes, his dog, and his anonymity. A former mid-level military man, he turns to fighting bad guys up close and personal after his wife was killed in the 9/11 attack on the Pentagon.
After a job goes bad, Jason's world is turned upside down when his home is discovered and eco-terrorists try to take him out. Jason's only choice is to get to the bottom of why... and to eliminate a threat that puts the president, himself, and the world's economy in jeopardy.

Much as Victoria in Washington mentioned, this book left me wondering why I was still spending my time reading it. I too read the cover acknowledgements, and went as far as reading the very first chapter in the store. I thought, 'It has potential. Sure . . . why not.'
My biggest complaint is that I never felt like I truly understood the plot or felt compelled to care that the lead character was racing all over picturesque island locales. It was almost like the author expected me to understand that there was some environmental issue at hand and it had to do with gas emitting plants. I consider myself a pretty intelligent dude, but I'm no mind reader.
Also, as Victoria mentioned, I felt that I had to muscle my way through the typo's. My thought is this, if the editor didn't care enough to correct, or point out the errors, why should I care? But fortunately, the writing style was fairly easy to follow and it didn't take too much more time out of my previously scheduled summer reading. I found the interlude with Shirlee towards the end of the story to be the most interesting and compelling portion of the book. I actually chuckled and found myself smiling after that read.
I'm not writing this to bash Gregg Loomis, hell . . . I hear it's not so easy to write a novel, let alone get one published. But, I am writing this to warn those who find the premise interesting. It is intersting . . . and all starts well and good, but be thrifty. Find the book used. You'll thank me later.

Like the previous Loomis books, you encounter many twists and turns that keep you turning pages. I can't wait for the subsequent book. I look forward to the subsequent Chapter with Jason.
