In Memory of Tom Flaxbeard. A Truly great man, father to two amazing kids Zach and Zoey, and a great friend taken from us far too soon. I know we will see each other again one day.
 
“The Tree of Liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of Patriots and Tyrants.”- Thomas Jefferson.
 
This quote from one of the founding fathers of the United States is not just a tattoo scribed on the right bicep of Wren Marshall, but a belief that fuels his love of his country. Why else would he have chosen the life he has. Wren’s father, a Vietnam veteran often said his son was born wrapped in the flag of his country. It was no surprise to his father that his oldest son enlisted in the Army right after high school graduation. Wren then went on to become an elite Delta Clearance Special force’s Army Ranger. At that time, he had no idea how that decision would affect his life.
 
Then, that tragic day in New York when the world stood still. Changed Wren’s life forever. A few months after that tragedy, a man named Owen Hillman the director for a joint special projects firm based in London called Armed Securities International or ASI for short, approached Wren and his best friend and fellow Delta teammate Tasman Ryder in a café in Kabul Afghanistan. The meeting was an invitation to a true path to hunt down those and others around the world responsible for events like 9/11 the worst day in Wren Marshall’s life.
 
The former MI-6 agent and current ASI director recruited both Wren and Taz to be a part of an organization that attracted the most talented men and women trained in the art of warfare. Wren and Taz jumped at the chance to be a part of this organization.
 
Fast forward to September 11th, 2018. Wren would have a chance encounter with a woman named Amber. A savvy night club operator and dedicated mother of two young boys. It was only supposed to be a fling that turned rapidly into a romance that Amber wasn’t looking for.
 
Accused of the assassination of a high-ranking Venezuelan official, Wren goes from the hunter to the hunted. His identity now on full display, forces Wren to go on the run. His secret life now puts all those he cares for in danger. Including Amber, who now becomes an unknowing participant in a plot that threatens the national security of the United States.
 
“The Prisoner Patriot” is the first book of the Patriot Trilogy. The second book in the series is titled “The Blood of Patriots” followed by the thrilling conclusion “The Blood of Tyrants”.
