PRAISE FOR THE PROTECTORS

“James Piper has written a story of the attempted assassination of the president. It deals with high finance and corporate intrigue with exceptional insight. It is fast paced and very, very well written. It is brilliant—lucid and intellectually insightful, and of its kind, it is in the first rank.”—David Adams Richards (2000 Giller Prize)


“For those who love a good thriller, full of twists and turns, intrigue, murder, money, and deceit all thrown at you at breakneck speed, this is one fantastic read! The attention to detail without bogging down the story gives just the right touch of realism. The author has done his due diligence in bringing together characters with backgrounds that make their present situation and their race to a solution through a maze of murder and mayhem totally plausible and believable. And the final twist at the end?—perfect.”—Shelfari

“I enjoyed this book, it kept my attention throughout, the twists weren't always foreseeable and the reveal at the end was skillfully done. Definitely worth reading, and worth looking for more from James Piper.”—Rose Cimarron
