Editorial Content for The Sound of a Scream

Joe Hartlaub

Back in the day --- the mid-20th century, to be exact --- there was a genre known as Gothic horror. Confined primarily to mass market paperbacks, the covers of such books almost always featured 1) a frightened-looking young and attractive woman; 2) a mansion that had but one light on, almost always in an upstairs window; and 3) a nighttime scene. THE SOUND OF A SCREAM brought me back to those good old days. John Manning takes every cliché from that genre, twists this and turns that, and makes all that was old new and wonderful again. Read More

About the Book

About the Book

After September 11, 2001, Delta Force troop commander Dalton Fury was given the secret mission to hunt down and kill the most wanted man in the world, the details of which were recounted in his extraordinary New York Times bestseller KILL BIN LADEN. Now, Fury draws upon his hard-won combat experience --- and his gift for true-to-life storytelling --- to offer a brand-new series of thrillers that are as close to reality as readers can get.

Meet Kolt Raynor. A Delta Force operator and one-time American hero, he is still trying to make sense of his life --- and duty --- after a secret mission gone bad. Three years ago, in the mountains of Pakistan, Raynor made a split-second decision to disobey orders --- one that got some of his teammates killed and the rest captured. Now he’s been given a second chance to do right by his country, his men, and himself. But Raynor’s shot at redemption comes at a price.

A shadowy group of former colleagues has asked Raynor to return, alone, to Pakistan’s badlands. His assignment seems clear: find his missing men and bring them home. What Raynor never expected was to uncover a sinister al Qaeda plot to capture a Black Site --- a secret U.S.­­ prison --- and destabilize the region. Meanwhile, a ruthless, unknown enemy is on his trail…and he will stop at nothing to make sure that Raynor’s mission is not accomplished.
