Novel #3 - No, that's not the title but unlike the
first two novels, this one has eluded him to this point.
Daniel
is working on the final edits of his third novel which is a sequel to Unheard, Unseen… where once again we follow the
adventures of Royal Canadian Navy Chief Petty Officer Darren Cole, US Navy SEAL Ensign Stu Cunningham and Chief Petty Officer
2nd class ‘Cookie’ Barnes. A few ‘surprise guests’ from Daniel’s second novel, Conflict in the
North, also appear in this exciting adventure neatly tying in characters from the two previous novels.
Here's a sneak preview...
“You seem to have
some mighty good intelligence goin’ on there, Cookie.”
The Canadian winked and reached for the briefcase he had carefully set down on the seat next to him. The SEAL had noticed
he had not let it out of his sight since their meeting back on the base. Unlocking it, he slid out a photograph, handing it
over to Stu who immediately recognized it as a satellite image from a spy bird. Seeing TACSAT-4 in the ID section printed
on the photo, he realized that someone was calling in a lot of favours to get their hands on this stuff. The image showed
part of an industrial area in what appeared to be a town or small city although he could not be sure as the photo did not
show much outside of a few blocks.
“What am I looking at?”
“See that building?” Cookie jabbed a toothpick he’d taken from the small jar on the table at the
image.
“Looks
like a warehouse or maybe a small factory?”
“That’s where they were holding him as of twenty-four hours ago.” Cookie reached into the briefcase
and took out another photo. “This one is of the surrounding area.”
The SEAL reached for the glossy sheet of paper and nearly dropped it as his eyes focused on the image. “You have
got to be kidding!” Stu sputtered; an incredulous look on his face.
“I wish I was,” the Canadian submariner answered quietly.
Ensign Stewart Cunningham carefully looked over the image. Someone had written descriptions and directions on parts
of the photo, identifying the building as being located in the town of Elizovo on the Kamchatka Peninsula. That piece of land
which jutted out into the Barents Sea and Pacific Ocean on Russia’s west coast was also the site of one of the country’s
largest and most secure submarine bases.
