Suzanne Brockmann’s wildly popular Troubleshooters series showcases this master storyteller’s rare gift for blending intense adventure with sensuous romance. And it all begins with The Unsung Hero, a heart-pounding tale of love that reveals hidden truths and brings two solitary people together against all odds.
After a near-fatal head injury, Navy SEAL lieutenant Tom Paoletti catches a glimpse of an international terrorist in his New England hometown. When he calls for help, the Navy dismisses the sighting as injury-induced imaginings. In a last-ditch effort to prevent disaster, Tom creates his own makeshift counterterrorism team, assembling his most loyal officers, two elderly war veterans, a couple of misfit teenagers, and Dr. Kelly Ashton. As the town’s infamous bad boy, Tom was always in love with Kelly, a sweet “girl next door” who has grown into a remarkable woman. Now he has one final chance for happiness, one last chance to win her heart, and one desperate chance to save the day.
“Thanks to Suzanne Brockmann’s glorious pen, we all get to revel in heartstopping adventure and blistering romance.”—RT Book Reviews
Tom Paoletti was involved in an accident during a SEAL mission that nearly killed him, or at least nearly put him in a permanent vegetative state. Now he's home and trying to work out what's wrong with his uncle and his lifelong friend and employer; and adding to the confusion is his long running yearning for Dr Kelly Ashton. When he thinks he sees a terrorist he's been chasing for a while, a terrorist assumed dead, his superiors put it down to his head injury, he's not sure, and enlists a motley crew to investigate.
The details about the long-term issues Tom has with the head injury are interesting and add to the character. Malory is great fun and David comes across as a proper geek. I enjoyed the ride
