Measure of a Man — Teel James Glenn; Jerry Kokick

It was not a world anyone wanted to live in except the terrorists. Their desperation to make the rest of the world conform to their view of the universe, as far back as the 1980s, had changed the world. It was a slow change at first, and then like a dam that burst, the violence and irrationality of their vision was imposed on the rest of the world. It was from this chaos and lawlessness that a terrified world came to embrace the concept of the Exceptionals: extraterritorial bio-enhanced bounty hunters, who could go anywhere, do almost anything in the name of law. Their lives were always at risk from the narco terrorists, tyrants and hate mongers of this not-so-brave new world. The United States Government and the United Nations mandated that their identities became a closely guarded secret. Now the Exceptionals must confront demons from their past, a horror from beyond the grave and a conspiracy from within their ranks that threatens everything they hold dear. For one, it may claim his very soul!
