Where were you when those two hijacked planes slammed into the Twin Towers, those majestic symbols of American wealth and power, and sent them crashing to the ground?
From the depths of that wound to our national psyche, author Gordon Mott brings us Caleb Drake, a good man living a seemingly safe and satisfied life in the suburbs north of New York City. But one morning, as he awaits his commuter train into Manhattan, Caleb spots two private jets flying low over the Hudson River, and the sight sends a shiver up his spine.
Moments later, Caleb takes his usual place on the train, and all seems right with the world -- until the train makes a sudden and unexpected stop. Then cell phone service for everyone goes dead, and Caleb’s agonized memories of 9/11 and what he had endured in Vietnam surge up and grab him by the throat.
What follows is a first-class psychological thriller, recalling 9/11 and showing us how this new attack radically upended the lives of Caleb Drake and many of the other people trapped on that commuter train into Manhattan.
Where were you on 9/11? And these pages will have you asking: where were you on 10/10, that fateful October morning when a simple commute into Manhattan becomes a nightmare, shattering lives and washing away our bedrock belief that, even in the darkest times, the good in us will always triumph over evil.

Review
10/10 is a clear-eyed look at how terror traumatizes everyone and why it is important that we never overlook what it has done to each of us.
-- Ana Navarro, CNN Political Commentator and co-host of The View
10/10 is a powerful narrative of what terror does to the lives of four suburban New Yorkers caught in a 9/11-like attack. The thriller explores the split-second decisions made in the heat of the moment, and how the consequences of those decisions can destroy lives and upend our most treasured notions about good and evil.
-- Christopher Dickey, World News Editor, The Daily Beast.
We all love heroes. 10/10 gives us Caleb Drake, a man who protects a female stranger during a terror attack, and then follows his life through a series of traumatic events caused by his gallant intervention. He struggles to defend himself against a murder charge, watches his marriage disintegrate and finally finds redemption by rebuilding his life around dreams that he had buried for years. This thriller takes us inside the hearts and minds of terror victims, and asks us the question, "How would we respond?"
-- Jim Belushi, Actor and Producer
Gordon Mott's book resurfaced my memories of September 11, 2001 when the world stopped and we all wondered what the future held. Caleb Drake's story in 10/10 reminds us that actions have serious repercussions and what we do in moments of crisis can affect us in ways we can't predict. This is a compelling story that I couldn't put down.
-- Rocky Patel, President, Rocky Patel Cigars
