Eddie Perlmutter comes from a long line of fighters – his grandfather survived life under siege from Cossacks in Russia, before he moved to Boston. To survive life in this tough city, this little Jewish kid proved himself to be quite the amateur boxer. He became a cop – the one and only thing he ever wanted to be – and managed to survive a tough career in one piece. When it comes time to retire, the widowed Eddie decides to move to Boca Raton, Florida since his well worn body had had enough of the New England winters. Trouble seems to find Eddie after he discovers there is a very dark side of life lurking under the tranquility of this scenic paradise. Country-club politics and early-bird specials are not enough for this tough ex-cop who gets back in the game by singlehandedly busting up a ring of Russian counterfeiters, winning the gratitude and respect of the local police chief. Realizing how this fearless maverick and his aversion to injustice could be a benefit, the chief drops a subliminal hint to Eddie that he should get his private investigator’s license. Unfortunately, the one thing Eddie didn’t count on was becoming the local hero, the Knight of Boca Raton.

Radio Show host Tony Macrini of WNIS Morning Show calls A. J. Tata a “warrior scholar” – this perfect description captures the author’s approach to both his writing and his profession. In his capacity as an active duty brigadier general in the army, he has commanded both a paratrooper battalion and an air assault brigade, and was also deputy commanding general of the 10th Mountain Division in Afghanistan in 2006/7, accolades which add even more authenticity to a riveting, suspense-filled, political-military thriller written by a man who has definitely ‘walked the talk.’ Military Writers Society of America heaped high praise on Tata’s writing style as “packed with adrenaline and action.” At a recent book signing in Virginia Beach, Meg Wade and Brad Mattocks, public relations coordinators for Barnes and Noble, wished they had ordered more books when Tata broke all records at the store by selling twenty-four books in the first hour alone and selling out for the whole event. He repeated this at Borders the next day with twice as many books on the shelves.
Sudden Threat is the premiere novel of A.J. Tata’s ‘Threat’ series, which has been called “Riveting entertainment at its best” by the Military Writers Society of America, and named, “One of my must read authors,” by New York Times bestselling writer, Brad Thor. This the story of two brothers, Matt and Zachary Garrett, CIA paramilitary operative and U.S. Army officer respectively, who get caught in the crossfire of competing Beltway conspiracies. Matt is abruptly re-routed to an obscure assignment in China and the Philippines just as he was about to close in on al Qaeda senior leadership in Pakistan. Later, sifting through the wreckage of a C-130 aircraft in the Philippine jungle and finding a dead Special Forces paratrooper, Matt is forced to question why he was placed on the edge of the global war on terror. As he is pursued by Muslim insurgents, he stumbles upon a weapons factory guarded by Japanese soldiers in Mindanao’s uncharted rain forests. At the same time, and unknown to Matt, his brother’s infantry company is deployed to guard an ammunition stockpile near Manila. As the two brothers fight their elusive enemies overseas, they do not realize they are pawns in a game of chess played by a powerful band of men inside the DC Beltway trying desperately to forestall the Iraq invasion while keeping the country focused on the fight against Islamic terrorism. The beautiful Meredith Morris challenges the conspirators, but events take a lethal turn when a member of the Beltway group decides to go solo.
A. J. Tata’s novels, published by Variance Publishing, have already been compared with the works of Tom Clancy by U.S. News and World Report. With top acclaim and praise, such as “A pulse-pounding, military thriller” coming from Brad Thor, NY Times #1 best-selling author of The Last Patriot, makes A.J. Tata and his ‘Threat’ series an exciting addition to the Thriller genre. Find out more at the author’s website at www.ajtata.com.
