DAVID CADY was nominated for AUTHOR OF THE YEAR by Georgia Writers Association for his thriller THE HANDLER. Now enjoy, FATAL OPTION, the sequel to that page-turner, which picks up right where the first book ends and moves forward with the same fast-pace-action. The sequel begins when MATT FAGAN, who endangered his life while preventing the suicidal death of 300 cult members, believes that he has just killed his brother, EMMANUEL, the insane cult leader. However, Emmanuel is saved from a fiery death by his disciples. Once Emmanuel is nursed back to health, the vindictive leader begins his execution of revenge against Matt and everyone Matt loves. When the child of former cult member SARAH BRINDLE is abducted by a woman she recognizes from Emmanuels cult, Sarah and her mother, MEDORA, call on Matt once again to find and rescue him. After Matts adult son is shot while on patrol and his teenage son is kidnapped, Matt and his partner, LEAKY WATERS, must use all their skills to track down the predators through the backwaters along the Tennessee River. Through fast-moving flashbacks the story reveals Matt and Emmanuels childhood in a snake-handling church, and how one critical decision by their father created horrifying life-changing events-events that lead to Matt being orphaned at the age of four, and Emmanuel being abused by a cruel stepfather-cruelty that spearheaded Emmanuels own sadistic behavior. From MOUNTAIN LIFE Magazine: The novel is set in the Chattanooga area, the key portions of the story taking place in the mountains surrounding the Scenic City. Theres plenty of action and the authors strong feel for the region shines through. -- This refers to THE HANDLER.
