"The Hunting Trip"

on sale 29 DECEMBER 2015

A NOVEL OF LOVE AND WAR

As the author of the electrifying W. E. B. Griffin novels of the military, police, spies, and counterspies, William E. Butterworth III has been delighting readers for decades. Now comes a special treat for them—The Hunting Trip.

At the tender age of sixteen, Philip W. Williams III is expelled from boarding school for committing a prank, and on the train home naturally wonders where his life will take him now. It never enters his mind that he will become a world-class marksman and a special agent of the U.S. Army Counterintelligence Corps in postwar Germany, play a key role in the defection of a Soviet officer and then court danger as a courier for the CIA, marry an Austrian ballet dancer of ferocious mien, become a renowned bestselling novelist, and meet the love of his life on a hunting trip to Scotland.

Yet all of this, and a great deal more, awaits him, in a raucous series of adventures across Europe and the United States that will have readers laughing, cheering, and propulsively turning the pages to discover what happens next.

MAX AND MÄDCHEN PUPPIES

Readers of the Presidential Agent series will be immediately familiar with the Bouvier des Flandres belonging to special operator Carlos G. Castillo.

Shortly, a select few can actually call one of Max (AKC Champion Reidsan Maximus Optimus) and Mädchen’s (Reidsan Mädchen of Charley Castillo) puppies their own. (You might need to supply your own G-IV.)

All proceeds will be donated to the Special Operations Warrior Foundation, Operation One Voice, and The Sanctuary International.

The puppies were born 7 November 2015 (not at all surprisingly the same day as the OSS Society’s William J. Donovan Award gala).
