The D.C. Man #1: “Top Secret Kill” by James P. Cody*. Brian
Peterson works in DC as a Lobbyist. However, he has become better known as a
go-to man to solve your problems, and in Washington senators always end up with
problems. Ex-football player, and ex-military intelligence operative, he knows
how to use weapons, including judo and karate. Senator Haynes Brickman has a
leak in his committee, and classified documents are being passed to foreign
governments. He hires Peterson to investigate and stop the leak, no matter what
it takes. A fairly good story, with some good action, and a nice plot, but the
really interesting thing about this series is, it was written by a priest.
*James P. Cody is his birth name, but when he joined the priesthood he took the
name of Peter T. Rohrbach. I didn’t uncover this data, someone else did, and I
apologies for not remembering the researcher’s name. It’s obvious that the
author read some men’s action novels before writing his own series. This is a
lot more tame than most of the men’s action novels, still the author did a good
job on his first outing with Top Secret
Kill.
