Hero's Burden Michael LeCompte

Since the Global "War on Terror" was launched in 2001 the American homeland has not been attacked again... UNTIL NOW! Unbeknownst to the American government the International terrorist Muhammad Sayid has snuck into the country and is planning an attack at one of the largest malls in America over the Fourth of July weekend. Sayid is determined to turn America's birthday into a day of national mourning. As Sayid's evil plan unfolds it falls to one man-Frank Slater-a coffee shop owner at the mall, to stop the terrorists. Will Frank accept the Hero's Burden? Can he lead the hostages trapped in the mall to freedom? Or will evil prevail this Fourth of July? As timely as it is shocking Hero's Burden is an explosive story examining the fine line between good and evil, the hero and the coward, and the power of one person.
