Former U.S. Army Captain and West Point graduate Christine Carter is on a mission for God and Country. The greatest marksmen since the Vietnam War, Christine spends her short Army career training snipers for missions she will never see because of stupid, biased gender rules. She concludes her career gathering Intelligence on the Drug Cartels and Communist insurgents in South America.
Backed up by active duty Captains Sioux ‘The Scout’ LeMonde and Lori ‘Legs’ Bergman and other West Point friends, Christine resigns her commission in 1985 and leads the Not Charlie’s Angels, as the point of the spear against the worst organized crime and drug kingpins in New York City.
In a classic The Good, the Bad and the Ugly scenario, Christine’s first two shootings leads to a violent mob war featuring: the Real Bronx Bombers, the Bath Beach Russians, the Sicilian Tosca Family and the Medellin Cartel.
Overwhelmed, the New York City Police Department, lead by Detective Lieutenant Ben Kennedy, joins forces with the FBI and ATF by creating a joint City-Federal Task Force charged with arresting all the gangsters and ending the war, unaware that Christine and her friends exist.
Unpaid, and not avenging a family member or friend like Death Wish and the Punisher, Christine is determined to perform her Civic Duty based solely on her patriotism, love of country, belief in God and the skill set that she has honed since elementary school.
If you like the Dime Store novel genre of Elmore Leonard, the character development and suspense of Robert Ludlum, the thrills and attention to details of real world weapons and vehicles of Tom Clancy and sheer genius of Mario Puzo’s original Godfather, then you are sure to enjoy the first installment of the Civic Duty trilogy.
