New Political Thriller on Afghanistan: Battlefield of Power, Graveyard of Reputations

Bestselling author, James Bruno releases his latest political thriller: "Tribe," a tale about how power, love, and fathers and daughters come into play in conflict-riven Afghanistan, and how the government gets it all wrong.

Harry’s career takes off after he falls in love with politically powerful Washington socialite Camilla Loomis. But the resulting tension between his career and commitment to the truth compels Harry to balk and unilaterally take on the powerful men and women behind the pay-for-play scheme. Harry finds himself running for his life from the jihadists in Afghanistan, the Pakistani ISI and Predator drones in Yemen, a target of his own CIA…
