The Triumph was rapidly racing towards the military side of the airport. Two armed security guards stationed at the entrance stopped patrolling and looked off into the distance at the cycle. As fate would have it, there was no traffic in front of Ross and Lin. It appeared to the guards that the motorcycle was gaining ground at an incredible rate of speed. Suddenly, the startled security guards looked at each other. They frantically decided in unison to unsling their machine guns. But it was too late. Ross twisted open the throttle of the Triumph and hunched down in the seat. Lin realized what was happening and buried her head into Ross's back clutching him for dear life. There was a hinged wooden barricade blocking the airport entrance. Ross closed his eyes and lowered his head. Then all hell broke loose.

About the Book
Green Beret Captain James Ross travels to Kuala Lumpur for a routine military training conference and unwittingly finds himself set up as the patsy in an insidious terrorist plot. "Sparrow's Tears" is an exciting military-espionage thriller taking place throughout exotic Thailand and Malaysia. Ross is an intelligence officer with Special Forces sent to Kuala Lumpur to attend the CARAT conference held this year at the Petronas Twin Towers. Accompanying Ross is his old C.I.A. colleague from Bangkok, Randal Kloet. Once in Malaysia, Ross is assigned Miss Lin Sparrow as his official interpreter. The lovely and intriguing Miss Sparrow proves an extremely capable young woman. Of Amerasian descent with the gift of clairvoyance, Lin uses what some call her witchcraft skills in an attempt to pull Ross out of his deeply disturbing family past. Ultimately, Ross and Lin cross destinies with rogue C.I.A. agent Julius Creedmoor who has sold out his country to Abu Sayyaf. Someone in Abu Sayyaf is using an education in psychology and PTSD to erode the American soldier psyche. Their plan is to destroy the Petronas Towers and bring the financial infrastructure of Southeast Asia to its knees. Blame will be placed squarely on the United States unless Ross and Lin can stop them.
