Vengeance in the Capital — Rob Shumaker

They came after his family . . . and now they must pay the price. After saving America from the Russian nuclear threat, Duke Schiffer is content to enjoy a quiet life with his growing family. But that vanishes in an instant when the unthinkable happens, and now his only mission is to wreak vengeance on his enemies. With the presidential campaign in full swing, Senator Bradford Baldwin, the nominee for Vice President, knows that defeating the Schumacher/Stubblefield ticket will be a daunting task. There's a chance, though, and the odds are getting better by the day. But his Chief of Staff has something more sinister in mind-use her position to destroy America from within. When Schiffer discovers those behind the attack on his family, he vows to leave no stone unturned. The investigation ultimately leads to the one person who can help him-a captured criminal turned witness now in protective custody. She knows things, including details about the President's opponents, and Schiffer tells her it's time to divulge her secrets. With assassins on the hunt to silence them both before the election, it's up to Schiffer to unravel the plot against his family and the country. Whether he can exact his revenge in time depends on whether he can find the killers before they find him.
