Armored

Joshua Duffy is a Close Protection Agent—a professional bodyguard— and he’s one of the world’s elite operatives. That is, he was until his last mission in Lebanon. Against all odds, Josh got his primary out alive, but the cost was high. Josh lost his lower left leg. There’s not much call for an elite bodyguard with such an injury. A lucky run-in with an old comrade promises to get Josh back in the field for one last job. 

I’m a fan of Mark Greaney’s Tom Clancy-style thrillers. Greaney has even written some of the books in Clancy’s world. What I like about Josh– what makes him different from most of these heroes– is his devotion to his family and his determination to get back to them.
