No. 1 New York Times bestselling author, Peter Telep, is pleased to announce the release of his latest pulse-pounding thriller, “The Secret Corps.” The trade paperback edition is now available for purchase on Amazon.com. “The Secret Corps” Kindle Edition is available now for pre-order and will be released May 22, 2015.
“The Secret Corps” plotline begins with a small town home invasion, resulting in a tragic death. Main character, Retired Marine Master Sergeant James “Johnny” Johansen, agonizes over questions whose answers threaten his loved ones, his career and his company. The most serious question of all posed in this thriller is whether or not Johnny’s family is linked to Islamic extremists in the United States.
Johnny turns to Willie, Corey and Josh – his former brothers-in-arms – relying on their skills as highly-trained Marines to uncover a treacherous plot involving a renegade defense contractor and the highest levels of a U.S. intelligence network. Risking their lives to reveal the shocking details of the operations, Johnny and his friends discover that hundreds of terrorists are poised to launch a coast-to-coast attack on American soil.
Reviewed by some of the toughest critics around, current and retired U.S. Marine Corps members had this to say:
“Peter Telep did his homework; from our verbiage and personality nuances to the gear and equipment we use. I truly enjoyed reading this novel!” – Joseph “Willie” Parent, Former GySgt USMC, 2D Force Recon / 2 Marine Special Operations Battalion
“This story genuinely personifies the Corps’ character / characteristics (cohesion, loyalty, selfless devotion to duty and each other, to name a few) routinely found in Marines and their units.” – Major J.W. Dorsey IV, USMC (Ret), vice president of GLOCK®, Inc.
Telep’s work on “The Secret Corps” involved extensive research, including a trip to the SIG SAUER® Academy in New Hampshire, where he received hands-on training in many of the weapons featured in this novel. He also traveled to Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, where he had the opportunity to pilot a Riverine Patrol Boat and make an “unauthorized” J-turn, much to the surprise of his soaked but smiling hosts.
