Domain of the Scorpion

domain-of-the-scorpion_coverRobert Bruce Drynan’s Domain of the Scorpion is a pulse-pounding thriller set against the backdrop of the Vietnam War at its peak, narcotics trafficking, and Marxist guerrilla activities in Columbia and Venezuela. When battle scarred ex-marine Ryan Haggarty meets Anne, a schoolteacher, he never expects the two will soon be involved in deadly intrigue. Haggarty and Anne are unaware that they possess knowledge that could expose a merger between a Columbia drug cartel and Marxist insurgents, and that the Scorpion, a shadowy figure who runs the cartel, wants them eliminated. A deadly cat and mouse game ensues, with the police, military, Communist guerrillas, and the Scorpion hot on their trail. When the Scorpion takes Anne hostage, Haggarty must battle his own demons, along with this human one, to save the woman he loves. A thinking person’s thriller, Domain of the Scorpion is both a moving love story and an incisive look at political intrigue.
