Drone by Mike Maden

With "an unforgettable cast of characters" (W.E.B. Griffin) and nonstop action, Mike Maden's Drone kicks off an explosive thriller series exploring the hard realities of drone warfare.

Troy Pearce is the CEO of Pearce Systems, a private security firm specializing in drone technologies. A former CIA SOG operative, Pearce used his intelligence and combat skills to hunt down America's enemies-until he opted out, having seen too many friends sacrificed for political expediency. Now Pearce and his team choose which battles they will take on.

Pearce is done with the United States government for good, until a pair of drug cartel hit men assault a group of American students on American soil. New U.S. president Margaret Myers secretly authorizes Pearce Systems to locate and destroy the killers wherever they are. Now Pearce and his team are in a showdown with the hidden powers behind the El Paso attack-unleashing a host of unexpected repercussions.

Tom Clancy was a Maryland insurance broker with a penchant for naval history a little more than thirty years ago. He had been an English major at Loyola College in Baltimore for years and had always wanted to write a novel. The Hunt for Red October, the first of the tremendously popular Jack Ryan novels, sold swiftly due to glowing reviews, then rocketed to the top of the New York Times bestseller list after President Ronald Reagan declared it the ideal yarn. Clancy established himself as an unchallenged master of combining extraordinary realism and authenticity, sophisticated narrative, and razor-sharp tension from that day forward. He died in October of 2013.

Mike Maden is the best-selling author of the Drone series. He has a master's degree as well as a doctorate. in political science, with a focus on international affairs and comparative politics, from the University of California at Davis. He has given talks and given consultations on a variety of themes, including conflict and the Middle East.

Maden has worked as a political strategist and campaign manager in both state and national elections, as well as hosting his own weekly radio show in his hometown for a year.
