OPPOSITION REFLEX is the story of Steve Casella, a San Francisco firefighter struggling with his father's legacy of triggering a vicious terrorist attack. After two years of distancing himself from his father's actions, he's confronted by Edie Pauling, a journalist from New Jersey, who is also the daughter of the retired Navy SEAL killed attempting to stop the embassy attack blamed on Steve's father. Driven by Edie's thirst for justice, Steve is wrenched from a haunted past. Pushing aside their differences, they discover a conspiracy that points to the highest levels of government. As they get closer to the truth, the desperate actions of their enemies serve only to bind the motivations of this once unlikely pair. There is little time to act on their newly found evidence before the conspirators succeed in tilting the scales of government beyond the constitutional limits, and the future of this nation is steered from its basic foundations.
OPPOSITION REFLEX is the first book in the award-winning thriller saga: THE AMBER RESTRAINED SERIES. This series chronicles the escapades of two disparate individuals, Steve Casella and Edie Pauling, who surmount their differences and form a bond that takes them on a journey to fight the injustices assailing the American dream. Together they challenge the seemingly unending barrage of incompetence and corruption that is ignored, facilitated, or orchestrated by the almost invincible power structure of an encroaching government. Along for the ride is Amber, a dog Steve has rescued from a fatal house fire. The sometimes disobedient canine companion is a constant source of frustration and amusement, but as part of their team, no one is more capable to assist when times get rough. As the nation and the world gather at the brink, Steve and Edie desperately try to gain traction against the slippery slope toward ultimate destruction.
