Special Agent Avery Dick is recalled from retirement by his former employer, the Diplomatic Security Service, US Department of State to investigate allegations of massive fraud by the US embassy Kabul security services provider--Ajax Security and Protective Services. He uncovers the fraud and much more, as the pot boilers say. He brings the State Department's mountain to Mohammed in this send up and spoof of the foreign affairs establishment. US foreign policy in Afghanistan will never be the same again. Sometimes it's a personal thing for those who serve and protect. Paybacks not a bitch, it's a Dick, as Avery likes to remind.

Reviews
Bridled Praise for Avery Dick's Sensational Adventure Story
"............ Moreover, Dick's a raw, riveting look at how an ace investigator nails the bad guys who threaten our nation's pocketbook and principles overseas. Counterintelligence still thrives in the State Department's corridors and Avery Dick is its biggest proponent."
- Bill Franklin, Avery,s next-door neighbor" I should have breast-fed him as a baby. We're all paying the price now. My apologies to his readers. Gosh, I'm so sorry Avery has turned out to be an honest-to-goodness dick."- Avery's Mom "Dick is an intense roller coaster ride of twists, turns, and bumps as Diplomatic Security Service Special Agent Avery Dick uncovers speakable plots and conspiracies affecting our nation's security. Thank God America still has some hero's and patriots to look up to in this volatile time of international terrorism."- from Saintsbury Plaza Condo Association Newsletter "I absolutely loved Avery's Dick. I couldn't put it down. It's a tasteful and powerful feminine portrayal of our government's foibles in the Middle East. Why is it that all the hot, virile middle-aged guys are either married or totally whacked-out?" - Bambi Jurkowski, a former girlfriend "Avery Dick has done a great disservice to our country by revealing sensitive security sources and methods in his book. The powerful investigative tools he so callously exposes could compromise our nation's security. The State Department's credibility is once more on the line. It should firmly bitch-slap him on the wrist for this treachery."-Sandy Berger, ex-national security advisor. "Kudos and congratulations to Avery on his thrilling blockbuster novel, Dick. He has the chutzpah and stones to tell it like it is. Why can't our leaders do the same? The public deserves more from its elected officials. For Christ's sake, he should run for office on his platform shoes. We need more men of his stature serving our nation abroad." - Axel Grimes, Avery's literary agent and publicist "My Dick is a 'must read' for those who seek truth, justice and the American way. We must all do our parts in order to triumph over internationalism, foreign-borne multiculturalism, and schisms in our Americanisms. We are a proud nation that can't be conquered or divided, if we stay the right political course. God bless our great country."- Avery Dick, III
