"…readers will immensely enjoy the look at the agency's operations through the eyes of the key characters. THE SENTINEL is an action packed thriller that keeps the heart pumping and the adrenaline flowing..” -- Harriet Klausner in Allreaders.com

“Compelling.” -- Publishers Weekly

"No one knows the high-pressure world of the United States Secret Service better than Gerald Petievich, who spent fifteen years chasing down counterfeiters and providing personal security for politicians and dignitaries. And no one uses those elements to craft a more involving or suspenseful thriller. THE SENTINEL crackles with authenticity, and shows an insider's glimpse of the Presidential Security Detail that people never see. It is a steamroller of a book." -- Robert Crais

Petievich is Back with a Vengeance

Or, maybe he never left. I hadn't seen any of his titles since Earth Angels and wondered if he had gone on to other interests. Then, I saw his name on the cover from halfway across the local Barnes & Noble. I grabbed the book and didn't even open it until I had gone through the check out and driven home. After that, I settled into one of the most enjoyable tales I've read in a long time. Gerald Petievich's inside knowledge of law enforcement makes this book come alive in several different ways and directions, all at once. His protagonist, Special Agent Pete Garrison, is believable, attractive, and action-oriented, a character the reader 'pulls for' throughout the entire book. Plot twists lurk in unexpected places, and every page is an absolute banquet of inside information and character development. I have been a fan since reading "To Live and Die in L. A." and I believe that this writer just gets better with each book. Highly recommended. - Dennis Smirl
