Robert W. Krepps 2 hr 36 min read

An hour after witnessing an accident, a man is shot at from ambush, and saved by Brave, whose sixth sense for danger never fails.

Robert W. Krepps's 1970 thriller opens with an assassination attempt foiled by the uncanny, grenade-armed protector Brave, plunging Alan Rackham into a conspiracy with apocalyptic stakes. Fast, violent near-future military SF with a doom-laden title. Read it for propulsive action SF that opens with gunfire and never lets up.
