Synopsis

Boston, 1985. Private Investigator - and former Special Forces operative - Andy Roark knows he doesn't fit in with the regular clientele at the Harvard Club, and that's fine by him. He's at the elegant bar for one reason only: to meet with the former ambassador of Laos. Ambassador Gordon Stevenson has a job for him . . . and Roark's here to turn it down.

So what if Stevenson's been getting death threats? After what he did during the Vietnam war, the lives lost under his incompetent command, Roark's almost tempted to cheer his would-be assassin on. But then Roark finds out why he's been headhunted for the job. The FBI believe one of Roark's old army comrades is behind the threats, and only a fellow Green Beret can hunt the culprit down.

Too many of Roark's brothers in arms are dead. If he can save an old friend from making a terrible mistake, he has no choice but to set his feelings aside and take the case. But old grudges and dark secrets are at play, and Roark soon finds it's not just the ambassador's life that's in danger - it's his own.

Praise

“A gritty whodunit that packs an unexpected punch”
 –Kirkus

“In the Ambassador Colt takes us an a ride with all the twits and turns that make a great mystery. Our protagonist, GI turned PI, Andy Roark is both edgy and sweet, and you can't help but want to follow him anywhere into any situation. Roark stays with you long after you get to the end. I have so much I want to share about this compelling read, but I know if I do, I will give away too much. I will have save it for my next book club meeting.

Any fan of mysteries, engaging characters, compelling plots, and great writing, will love this book. I can't wait for the next one!”
