Shadow Sanction

By Steve Stratton

GENRE : Literature & Fiction

When the resurgent Sinaloa cartel attacks Wolf and his wife, Elle Parker, on the Crow Indian reservation, the safety of his people becomes Job One—until the president of the United States orders Shadow Tier to stop the Taliban’s opium trade. The president’s message: The drug war is a failure. Fix this now.
Torn between saving his people and the president’s demands for direct action, Wolf sends Shadow Tier’s Bravo Squadron to Afghanistan to infiltrate the Taliban drug organization. He sends Kieran Kennedy, his executive officer, to stand up and train a new international Charlie Squadron in the U.K. While Wolf bends the rules to protect the reservation on the home front, the squadrons track opium with a mysterious United Nations connection out of Afghanistan to a new “French Connection” in Marseilles, France.

Plans are made by the fake cartel for a large shipment of heroin to go to the mafia in New York City. As the data pours in from three continents, the heroin network unfolds and things to do not go as planned. The takedown of a multi-national drug production, shipment, and sales operation is unlike any operation Shadow Tier has attempted.

For the president, this is a no-fail mission.

For Shadow Tier, it’s time to bring war back to the war on drugs.

Shadow Sanction is a blockbuster that hits hard on the first page and never lets up. Lance Bear Wolf is a powerhouse series lead. Crisp writing, authentic action, superb tension, and deep characters keep the pages turning. I can’t wait to read the next in the Shadow Tier series!

— Brigadier General (Ret.) Anthony J. Tata, bestselling author of Total Empire

Steve Stratton ups his game big-time with Shadow Tier 2: Shadow Sanction. It’s not just a thriller, but it’s one on a grand scale with multiple plots unraveling at once, akin to old-school Tom Clancy thrillers. You’re in for a wild action-packed ride. Shadow Sanction is concrete proof that there is much more to come from Stratton in terms of stellar action and engaging global storylines with high expectations for his next adventure with Lance Bear Wolf, a protagonist whose familial and moral values are ideals all can look up to.

— Kashif Hussein, Best Thriller Books

If you are eager to step behind the curtain of our nation’s military black ops abilities, Shadow Sanction will illuminate your path. An amazingly detailed account of Lance Bear Wolf and his elite team of Shadow Tier warrior’s fight to crush a global opium network by infiltration, intrigue, and unconventional means. A clear, vulnerably human exposure as to how the exceedingly intricate and insidious aspects of fifth-generation warfare claw at the very fabric of the landscape we call home.
