The Unsung Hero

In Suzanne Brockmann's thrilling debut to the Troubleshooters series, "The Unsung Hero" plunges readers into a high-stakes world where love and duty collide. Navy SEAL Lieutenant Tom Paoletti, reeling from a near-fatal head injury, experiences a chilling encounter: he spots an international terrorist in his quaint New England hometown. Dismissed by the Navy as a hallucination, Tom, determined to avert disaster, takes matters into his own hands. He assembles an unlikely and eccentric counterterrorism team, including loyal officers, seasoned war veterans, and a pair of misfit teenagers. Central to his mission, and his heart, is Dr. Kelly Ashton—the "girl next door" who blossomed into a remarkable woman and the unrequited love of his youth. As Tom battles against a looming threat, he also fights for a second chance at happiness with Kelly, navigating treacherous waters of espionage and rekindled romance in a desperate bid to save his town and win the woman he never stopped loving.
