An Author Reviews Stephen Hunter's Master Sniper

 A friend recommended Stephen Hunter books as superbly crafted thrillers. She was right. MASTER SNIPER was worth every second of reading time. The story takes place at the end of WWII. One final desperate mission to ensure the rise of the Forth Reich. Of course, there is an allied intelligence officer and his team trying to stop the ‘master sniper.’ The story has more than a ‘darker undertone’ and a final plot that will raise the hair on the nape of anyone’s neck. My advice for any reader is to make sure that they can finish the last hundred pages in one sitting before they start the last hundred pages. I wanted there to be more. I guess that I’ll just have to read his other books. For me, Stephen Hunter and MASTER SNIPER is pure five-star fun. Jeff Bailey, author of NOT ON MY WATCH.





My name is Jeff Bailey I write action thrillers inspired by real events taken from everyday news. I also infuse elements of my near 50 years of experiences in nuclear weapons, nuclear power plants and nuclear research into my stories.

  


Not On My Watch is about a LCpl. Casandra Sing, a Marine aviation rescue firefighter. The inspiration for Cassie's character was the stories that my granddaughter, who was a Marine Corp. aviation rescue firefighter at the time of the writing. Elements of the story are also taken from my service in the Army Nuclear Weapons Program. LCpl. Sing witnesses the murder of two U.S. Army M.P.'s and decides that is her duty to stop the murderers. The situation gets complicated when she discovers that they have also stolen two nuclear weapons.

 

 

  



In The Defect, I tell the story of a terrorist attack on a nuclear power plant and why the government covered it up. The Defect is based on true events: The reactor accident at Three Mile Island NPS and a shooting incident at Watts Bar NPS. Some story elements come from years starting-up and operating nuclear power plants. In The Defect, I tell the story of what really happened at the power plant and why the government covered it up.
