Blown Away — G.M. Ford

The nightmare began a year ago with the curious and unfortunate death of a delivery driver-blown to pieces. With a little prodding from the media, the terror spread, burning a bloody swath from East Coast to West.

Bodies are piling up as a series of deadly bank robberies rocks the L.A. area. Where federal agencies see nothing but the random hand of a bomb-tossing lunatic, rogue journalist turned bestselling author Frank Corso sees the tracks of something more sinister-something with a motive and a message. And it's not going away.

Forced to work within the system, Corso and research assistant, Chris Andriatta, are never-theless ready to pull out all the stops to halt a time bomb of terror. But the closer they come to a maniac, the more a shocking and devastating truth comes to light-that the fuse to the horror that has killed many times over and will kill many times more may have been inadvertently lit by Frank Corso himself.
