Pete Bonanni

Mike Lewis, a San Francisco DA and one of the 28,000 hard-core fans of the F-16 flight simulation game, Falcon, will do anything to find that next great fight. When he and his old college buddy, Hap, hack into a defense network in search of the ultimate flight sim challenge—a fight against real fighter pilots—Steve’s twin brother, an F-16 fighter pilot, winds up dead. To get their lives back and justice for Steve’s brother, the two are forced to flee across the country as they slowly pull together the clues of an international conspiracy and try to stop an attack in the Middle East. Chased by the FBI and hired killers from McKnight Industries, enlisting the help of rogue CIA agents and renegade Hells Angels, from cyberspace to the airspace, Strike of the Falcon is a military spy-thriller with an irreverent bent.
