Synopsis

With The Head of the Snake, author Tim Conner picks up where Dirty Harry left off, but on steroids. Faced with endless gang violence and death in Chicago, a band of Marine veterans becomes the law. Their solution is Camp Keokuk in Iowa where vicious gang members disappear forever. Plucked off the mean streets, the worst of the worst are dropped by helicopter into permanent storage beyond redemption.  While civil libertarians may howl, the daring conspiracy of revenge justice spreads and citizens applaud. Through fast-paced storytelling with characters that come vibrantly to life, Conner touches the third rail of urban policy, and sends a shock wave into the pious programs that have tried to deal with it so far. The Head of the Snake is an electrifying jolt to the solar plexus of our social consciousness. Dirty Harry would be proud.  

About this title

Review

“The Head of the Snake” is author Tim Conner's hymn to country living. In this lurid tale of Chicago street justice without trials or lawyers, Conner blends the diverse worlds of Marine operations, urban warfare, and farmland friendliness into a tense conspiracy of homespun law and order. This book will challenge everything you thought you knew about solving some of society's toughest problems.         
—Cornelius Geary, author of All Heart: The Baseball Life of Frank Torre 

 

An unashamed love letter to America’s heartland and its values: love, family, patriotism, common sense, tenacity, and spirit. You won't be able to put down this thrill-ride of a book. —Greg Paul, Marine and proud American
