Opis

It is 1954, and the Cold War is being waged globally with even greater vigor between the West and Communism. In the sixth novel in the Jim Colling series, Seraphim and Bear, Colling finds himself on an unfamiliar front of the conflict, undertaking the rescue of a family member being held for ransom by Communist insurgents in Central America. Colling learns that the Western Hemisphere presents its own set of risks and challenges, but they are overshadowed when he is asked to locate a Person of Great Interest who has been imprisoned by the Soviet Union in East Germany. Employing his talent for audacious deception to make his way deep into the domain of Soviet State Security, he begins to realize that he might have overplayed his hand, and that this could be his final mission. Robert McCurdy served as senior house legal counsel to a large Florida hospital and health care system for 30 years prior to his retirement in 2005. Before becoming an attorney, he practiced pharmacy in community drug stores, hospitals and military healthcare facilities. During his legal career, he authored numerous articles dealing with healthcare law, and served as writer and producer for healthcare educational films. Seraphim and Bear is the sixth book in the Jim Colling Adventure Series. The series, in order, includes: Dog Robber, Rat Line, Ram's Horn and White Eagle. Some of the events in Rat Line are drawn from Mr. McCurdy's experiences as an enlisted man in the U.S. Army Medical Corps in Germany during the Cold War years of early 1960's. He lives with his wife in Cape Coral, Florida.
