About The Book

Dive Into a New Mystery Spy Novel You Won’t Want to Put Down

 

CARSON NOWAK is a CIA contractor like none you’ve ever met before. Carson is tasked with retrieving a trunk full of documents. The order comes not from the Agency or even the President, but a higher authority; his nana. In addition to the documents the trunk also contains a war relic tied to a mysterious death just before D-Day. Tracing the provenance of this relic triggers a chain of events that not only unlocks Carson’s family history but garners the interest of a South American hit squad. Carson must navigate the challenges of protecting his family, maintaining his business, ensuring the safety of a young refugee developing a revolutionary weapons system, and deal with an infuriating curmudgeon. Along the way he falls in love. To navigate these challenges, he enlists the help of a pencil-thin code breaker, a claustrophobic corpsman and a Haitian nurse.

 

FAMILY SECRETS AND DANGEROUS FOES AWAIT

How does a POW become a spy?
http://jacknanuqbooks.com/sneak-peek/And why? And what the hell is a GALCO? These are only a few of the questions Carson Nowak needs answers to.

PARABELLUM, the novel, is spy/mystery/thriller novel set in Upstate NY, with flashbacks to both World War I and World War II.

PARABELLUM, the word, is a Latin term which loosely translates to “When you live in peace, Prepare for war”.

The writing style is a mash-up of C.J. Box meets Daniel Silva, meets John le Carre.

EXCITING PAGE TURNER!

An exciting thriller! Although the story is fiction, it is told in a very believable way and makes you think about all the underground intelligence that takes place everyday for which the general public is unaware. Colorful characters draw you in, especially Nana. It’s a page turner that keeps you looking to find out what will happen next. A great read!

COMPELLING THRILLER

A compelling thriller which kept me on the edge of my seat and the pages turning. Suspenseful… left you wanting more. I cannot wait to read another novel by this new author.

WHAT A FUN, CAPTIVATING, EXCITING READ!!!

The author and I have attended the same writers’ group for several years. I’ve been listening to his novel a chapter at a time for quite a while. This novel is told in simultaneous chapters with settings nearly a hundred years a part.

Carson’s great grandmother was a POW on the Isle of Man during World War I. Then we find out who and why Carson is protecting for one of his jobs in the Albany, NY area in the winter and spring of 2000. Though spy novels and thrillers are not usually my go-to genres, I finished reading this in less than two days. I really enjoyed it.

The protagonists are characters I wanted to know more about. The antagonists are vile-as they should be. I recommend it to readers who like spy novels, historical fiction, novels set in the Capital District, readers who like entertaining novels. I further look forward to more novels in this universe.
