Genre: 
Suspense-Thriller

Jon Hunter is called home by his brother whom he has not spoken to in fifteen years. If Kevin needs his help, he must be in some deep trouble. Jon makes it home just in time to stumble upon some shady dealings. Gun fire erupts, and suddenly Kevin is in Jon’s arms speaking cryptic phrases and apologizing right before he takes his last breath. Terror attacks and plots are taking place on US soil. Can Jon find out who killed his brother before he himself gets killed? Can he run interference between terrorist cells and make sure the bad guys don't do more damage? He has much work to do in very little time and keeps getting plucked out as one of the suspects. 

“The Consultant” will grab readers attention immediately and keep them engaged to the very last page. The hero in this tale is Jon Hunter, a crafty ex military, ex CIA agent turned ‘consultant’. Mr. O’Connor pens quite a character with Jon. His snarky comments and quick comebacks lend quite a fun twist to a crazy terrorist storm. Mr. O’Connor also gives such great descriptions that readers have a front row seat to the action, and the story’s ties to current events are well written. Although he packs a lot supporting characters into the book, all are nicely placed, and the Indiana Jones-type ending gives a satisfying sense of closure. The suspense, mystery and drama are very well played, and readers will not set this book down until the very end.
