Someone has organized the inner city's toughest gangs, trained them and armed them with sophisticated weaponry and set them loose on the streets. By the time police and politicos can act, it's too late: the ruthless armies have turned America into a war-zone. Every home and public place is a potential target. In one brutal instant, Professor David Holden has lost all a man could lose. Now the ex-Navy Seal commando is fighting the war only a desperate man can wage. And once he's begun, no force on earth can stop him—not the military, not the government... and certainly not the enemy!

Killing Defender #2 (The Defender) \[Aug 01, 1988\] Ahern, Jerry …

ON THE BRINK OF WAR HE’LL WIN PEACE BY SHOOTING FIRST. David Holden and his Patriots have hit the subversive FLNA hard... knocking out their headquarters on an exclusive resort island. But the FLNA's leader is readying a horrifying plan—to assassinate America's President and capture Holden. Now the enemy is a heartbeat away from victory in North America, and being lured toward a fatal trap is the one man who can save her.

The FLNA terrorists had thought that by breaking Patriot leader David Holden, they would be one giant step closer to conquering America. So they had kidnapped him and held him captive in a South American cocaine country, where he was subjected to ruthless, brutal torture. The enemy had him right where they wanted him. But he never broke. Now he's free and planning a little payback. He's going to dispense personal justice to the FLNA with his Uzi, his double-edged knife, and his do-or-die plan to get his pound of flesh...and bloody vengeance.

Holden is the only man that can stop the FLNA's master plan to take over America, leaving him to be the most hunted man in America. And, while the U.S. President lies wounded in a secret hideaway, even Holden can't stop the FLNA from putting their puppet in the White House. Now, with the most skilled commandos in the U.S. fighting at his side, Holden must rescue the President before the FLNA's deadly assassins close in... or America is doomed.

David Holden and his band are driven underground when a usurping president pins the assassination of the former president on them, and must shoot their way to a videotape that can clear them

David Holden, with an army of renegade police officers and veterans, fights against the FLNA, a terrorist organization that has gained control of the U.S. Armed Forces

In on the finish, the Defender will write history with his honor...and with his gun. America is dying. Terrorists now control the military and the President. A flame of hope still flickers when the Patriots find a new ally. Combat ready and grimly determined, David Holden prepares a final surprise attack on the drug kingpins and FLNA bosses. And one blazing last fight for liberty ...or for death.
