River Dawn

River Dawn is set in two timelines, the current and the past ten years.

John River is a man skilled to a unique level in the martial arts world and the military. River has been trained to rescue people, and that training has become embedded in his personality.

When a child sex trafficking ring kidnaps the daughter of a friend, then River’s mission is clear – rescue her and save the other children at all costs.

An extract from River Dawn……’ I crept slowly down the stairs, kneeling to peer underneath the floor of the ring level and into the basement; it was big. There was a large conference table with about ten men sat around it. Two large LCD TVs were on the wall, and the men were watching music videos with young girls singing and dancing. Beer and food were on the table; they seemed to be having a party. Behind the conference tables were two rows of cages, utterly full of young Chinese boys and girls in their teens; many sat on the floor, some standing and leaning on the cage walls. Beyond the cages were two large offices with windows out onto the cage areas. I could make out movement in both offices.’

A fast-paced thriller set against the backdrop of current world issues, River Dawn will carry the reader on a roller coaster ride of River’s rescue attempt of a group of children.

Exotic locations, action, military missions, thrills, and crime. River Dawn begins the evolution of John River, the Search and Rescue specialist.
