About the Book
Title: Line of Fire
Series: Dauntless Defenders #1
Author: Taylor S Newport
Publisher: Independently Published
Release Date: November 7, 2024
Genre: Christian Action Thriller
The enemy is relentless, but they made one fatal mistake: they underestimated him.
Australian mercenary Tyler Reid, known as "The Ghost of OZ," has a talent for evading detection, a skill that has caught the eye of multiple government agencies. When a shadowy group targets a CIA asset and her revolutionary drug ND1, the Deputy Director calls in Tyler. Eager for action, Tyler takes the job. He soon realizes that the enemy is not only after the drug, but also out for his blood. Then the mission goes south, and he is forced to seek an unlikely ally.
For covert foreign operative Alexandra Romanova, freedom is a distant dream. Escaping one prison only led her to a more dangerous one. Her deadly skills are at her boss's disposal, but she’ll use them only to escape. Her final chance hinges on retrieving ND1, but the elusive Ghost of Oz complicates things. Tyler Reid isn’t an easy mark, and the better she gets to know him, the more she questions the mission she's tasked with. Soon she faces a dire choice: kill a man she is convinced is good, or pay with her own life.
As Tyler and Alex venture beyond their orders, the line between enemy and ally blurs. On the edge of failure, trust becomes a dangerous gamble with every decision dragging them deeper into the line of fire. As enemies close in and alliances shift, they are ensnared in a ruthless battle where survival depends on split-second choices. In this high-stakes fight, time is running out, and the margin for error is zero.
Line of Fire is the first book in the Christian thriller series Dauntless Defenders. It is NOT a standalone novel.
EXCERPT:
Two vehicles took up positions beside Tyler and Alexandra. Another rammed their car.
Alexandra’s window shattered. Bullets flew. Tyler ducked and sped past the vehicles. He spun the steering wheel until the Sedan faced their three pursuers. He shifted into reverse and drove. Freed his pistol. Fired at the vehicles.
The car on the right smashed into the concrete barrier. The other two continued their course. Tyler swung the Sedan back around. Red and blue lights flashed ahead. Police. Not good. He didn’t slow. The exit beyond the cops was their only escape. Two cars blocked the path. A dozen police stood behind the vehicles. A small gap waited between the back of a car and the concrete barrier. Tyler pushed for that.
Metal screeched against metal. Tyler grimaced and turned the vehicle down the ramp. His gaze hit the mirror as vehicle lights shined behind them. One of their pursuers followed. Tyler sped up and rested a hand on top of the steering wheel. Checked the front. Clear. He turned and fired his Glock behind them. Their pursuer didn’t slow.
How were they supposed to lose them?
Tyler stopped the vehicle and threw it into reverse. “Hold
on tight.” He slammed the pedal. The sedan
flew backwards and hit their pursuer’s vehicle.
