    About this ebook

    Redemption Day is a highly paced thriller set in Washington DC. The story is founded upon historical events and documented teachings of the Posse Comitatus. The Posse was an anti-government militia group in the 1980 s that tried to convince farmers that banks could not lawfully foreclose on their properties. Their beliefs led to the bombing of the Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City on a date of significance to the group April 19.

      Steve O'Brien must have been drinking breakfast when he wrote Redemption Day. Not so much a suspense or a thriller as it is pure fantasy. If anybody believes there is a groundswell of domestic terrorists along the lines of 'sovereign citizens' or 'tea party activists', they might also want to fortify their homes for another sneak attack from Japan, which is about as likely. Mr. O'Brien should probably check himself in for 72 hour psychological evaluation. It seems improbable that there is a real market for this type of fever dream.

      Home-grown terrorists are a real and constant threat in the United States. Redemption Day by Steve O’Brien brings to life the story of the kidnapping of a Supreme Court justice. Nick James is a Federal terrorism analyst who finds himself out of work and being drawn into the crime - possibly drawn in too far. Nick has to solve the kidnapping while at the same time he is being framed for murder. Top on his list of suspects is the Posse Comitatus, a militia-style organization who believe that the government has gone too far.After the initial tense kidnapping scene, the story hits the skids while the author has to backtrack with information on all of the characters involved. Possibly there was too much information, and the story becomes rather choppy. However, as the story picks up again so does the suspense. There is a good balance between dialog and narration, and the characters were OK, but I didn’t feel any real connection to them. I also didn’t find the story believable, but sometimes you just have to get lost in the story and not worry about whether it is logical or not. There is plenty of action, adventure, torture scenes, and surprises that kept me guessing.

      i loved this book. if nothing else it was so refreshing to read an action book that wasn't tied around al-quida. it touches on militia in the u.s. that was so nice. i'm sick of everything revolving around terrorists/middle east. it was great to read one on a different subject. i would recommend this book highly. especially if this is your genre. youll be relieved to have something different and still really good. it was an easier fluid read.

      I got this book as part of the early reviewers program. This is an engrossing fast-paced thriller. I didn't put it down once I started it. Great read for those interested in terrorism and US politics.

      Who or what was the Posse Comitatus? Was it or are they real? Read this highly interesting book to find out. I know I did. The suspense was intense and I had trouble putting down the book as I wanted to find out what happened next.Rating: 5Heat Rating: MildReviewed by: Susan for MY BOOK ADDICTION AND MORE

      Many moons ago I reviewed Bullet Work by Steve O'Brien and, quite frankly, I wasn't fond of it. For some reason it just didn't resonate with me. When I was contacted to review another of his books, Redemption Day, the synopsis caught my interest and I decided to give the author another chance. Boy am I glad I did! Redemption Day is a hit! So for my review today, I am going to give you my Top 10 Hit List for Steve O'Brien's Redemption Day: The set up. One of my pet peeves with political intrigue is that I often get lost in the set up. Steve does an excellent job of introducing the characters and setting up the background and tone of the story. The characters. Each character gets his own chapter and has a very distinct voice. It makes it easy to become emotionally invested with each character as an individual. The action. 'Edge of your seat' and 'fast moving' are the the terms I would use. It makes for some nail biting moments. The flow. The story line moves smoothly from one place to the next. There are no jerky, sudden movements to slow you down. Not too graphic. There is definitely violence - kind of necessary in this type of story - but it wasn't graphic enough to cause me to flinch. The connections. The plot begins with a bunch of, seemingly, unrelated events happening to unrelated people. As the connections begin to emerge the story knits together beautifully. The suspense. Mr. O'Brien has done a great job of building the suspense as the plot progresses. There are small breaks to allow the reader to catch her breath but then it takes up where it left off and the reader is back to holding her breath again. Really bad, bad guys. I hate it when I am tempted to cheer for the bad guys. That doesn't happen here. Strong female. Yup, there is one and you all know how I feel about that. If there's going to be a female, she better be strong. And that makes the romantic sub-plot a nice perk. The ending. To avoid spoilers, that's all I'm going to say about that.We all know nothing is perfect but the negatives about this one aren't worth mentioning. If you like political thrillers, I'd recommend Redemption Day.

      To start off with I apologize for a late review but a first grandchild took top billing. Nick James is a Federal Terrorism Analyst who is out of work and finds himself having to solve the kidnapping of a Supreme Court Justice. The drawback is that he is also being framed for murder. This is a fast paced read, a few times I got confused and had to backtrack, but all in all a good read. I won this from LibraryThing Early Review.

      A supreme court justice is kidnapped by a group of right wing militarists, Posse Comitatus. The kidnappers want to create a massive incident that could reshape the United States.Anti terrorism operative, Nick James was fired from his job just prior to the kidnapping. Then he agreed to meet someone at his home to share information but when he got there, the man was murdered with Nick's gun so Nick goes into hiding.Tension mounts as we follow the path of the kidnappers and the government forces trying to catch them. As Nick makes headway to find the kidnappers, acting on his own, they become aware of him and go after him themselves.The action is well described and as we follow the terrorists closing in on their objectives, the author provides scenes that have excellent cinematic effects and are memorable.This is a wonderful novel with excellent, well-developed characters and a compelling plot.
    • 5/5
      The Posse Comitatus is a real group who believe that they are "sovereign citizens" and therefore exempt from government laws as long as they do not participate in anything governed by those laws, such as paying taxes. This book is based on them as they plan an attack that will put the government in chaos and certainly bring attention to their cause. The first act in their plan is the kidnapping of a supreme court justice.Nick James, a terrorism analyst, who knows more about them than anyone not in their organization, loses his job. Suddenly he finds himself caught in the middle of their plans, framed for murder and on the run. He not only needs to clear his name but help stop them before they can carry out their mission.This is a well written action thriller with details of the real Posse Comitatus thrown in. The plot moves along nicely and coherently with twists and new action that pulls you along with it. It is a bit frightening to think of this happening from within our own citizens (although they do not consider themselves citizens of this government) but it certainly is reminiscent of the bombing of the federal building in Oklahoma City by Timothy McVey.I enjoyed this book. It was entertaining but I also felt that I learned from it. Recommended.
    • 4/5
      This is a fast paced thriller/suspense novel featuring an everyday hero with lots of smarts. Nick James worked for a private agency that was part of Homeland Security before he was fired. He is an expert on home grown terrorist organizations. A Supreme Court justice is kidnapped and Nick is set up as the perpetrator but the real kidnappers are the Posse Comitatus - the group that Nick has been following for the last three years. He knows they did it he just can't prove it.The book begins with Nick's introduction and then the kidnapping. Then it does bog a bit as the members and the dogma of the Posse Comitatus is woven into the tale. I'm sure it is challenging to bring back story of a group most Americans have never heard of into a novel such as this. Living in a state such as mine, well. I'm educated. Nonetheless, the book does have some slow patches but that doesn't detract overall. The only character I didn't get at all was one of the members of the FBI team investigating the Justice's kidnapping - he seemed to be there to yell, "Nick did it, I know he did." And that was his sole purpose. So, if you are looking for a fast read with an interesting take on the terrorist theme this one will do it for you.

      When I first got the book,there was something familiar about the author "Brian O'Brien .Then I saw that one of his book was Bullet Work.I remember I got a advance copy of it last year.A friend always said that if the first 50 pages don't hook you,don't bother.But with this program I try to give it the first 100 pages,after that I not worth my time ,that one was not worth my time.Not wanting to be someone who judges a "book-by-its-cover"(sorry,had to say it) I started reading and found it surprisingly better that the last one.Have a problem with pieces of it...(where did the bad guy get the poison)but over all...its good.If you love David Baldaccithe Camel Club series,give this one a try.

      As a law enforcement officer, I can vouch that this book is more fact than fiction and it's a scary thought. O'Brien did his research on the topic and portrayed it well. The short chapters made it easy to read and enjoyable.

      I received "Redemption Day," by Steve O'Brien via the LibraryThing.com Early Reader program. I enjoyed the book but was disappointed at the poor editing--wrong words, omitted words, and inconsistencies (like Fourteenth Bridge vs. 14th Bridge). Those issues don't make the book bad, but they are unprofessional and distracting."Redemption Day" is about a far right-wing militia group, called the Posse Comitatus, bent on purging Washington, DC and bringing the sovereignty of individuals and states back to the forefront. Our protagonist, Nick James, is a domestic terrorist intel agent who's fired from his job due to budget cutbacks. But when he's framed for the murder of a local sheriff, who has information about the recent kidnapping of a Supreme Court Justice, James goes underground to figure out what's happening. Eventually his past association with the Posse comes into play and makes for some nice tension.The book is fast-paced and has some good action sequences. But the ending didn't make a lot of since as the lengths the militia group go to seem a little strange given what they're trying to accomplish.I was glad that this book wasn't overtly political. Generally, conservatives are ridiculed in mass media, but the Posse was so over the top and "right wing" that parallels to mainstream conservatism wasn't there. Some of the history, according to O'Brien, was accurate and quite interesting. There's no question the Federal Government has over the years taken more and more power from individual and states, but the way to reversing that isn't through terrorism--it's through the ballot box.

      I have read Bullet Work and Elijah's Coin by Steve O'Brien and when I was asked if I wanted to review Redemption Day I of course said yes. I was not disappointed either. The Posse Comitatus is ) is a loosely organized far right social movement that opposes the United States federal government and believes in government on a local level only. They refuse to pay taxes or obey government laws. Steve O'Brien took the historical events of the Posse and turned it into an exciting story of murder, extortion and kidnapping. Nick James has had the worst day of his life. He is a government contractor who is an expert on the Posse Comitatus and it appears that he is getting a bit too close to the homegrown terrorists and loses his job, he is told due to funding issues. He finds himself on the run from the FBI who thinks he is responsible for the death of a sheriff who was going to meet with Nick as he had some information to share. A Supreme Court Judge is kidnapped which sets Nick on a path to prove to the FBI that he is not the suspect but is as much a victim as the judge. April 19th is a significant day for the Posse and they have something planned so horrific that puts Nick on a mission to find these people before there is a disaster of major proportions for Washington D.C. This novel is a topnotch thriller and will keep you on the edge of your seat. A story that could conceivably happen in today's world what with the economy the way it is and that people are getting fed up with the way things are. I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves a great thriller.

      I received this book through the Early Reviewers Club, and thought it was the best one I had received that way. This is a fast-moving story of a terrorist plot by the Posse Comitatus. We don't hear much about the Posse Comitatus these days, but in the past they were well-known for protesting the legality of taxes and other actions of the federal government. The pace of the book is quick - it could easily be read in one sitting. I liked it well enough to want to go back and read the other books this author has written.

      These sovereign citizens are being pushed to far by the U.S. government, with all the rules and laws that they implement, like fishing, hunting, traping and driving licenses just to name a few, saying it's all for the good of the country. These individuals learn about the "Posse Comitatus" and reform to take back their country and their freedoms, the rebellion starts when they kidnap Silvio Caprelli, a Supreme Court Justice and try him against their rules and judgements to make their point. A very interesting subject matter, since I have the same views regarding a possible coup d'etat within this country, people say that could never happen, but look at history of the world. The longest empire on this planet lasted only 400 years, that was the "Roman Empire" and we're well over half way there. Things have too start changing, the rich people in this country are getting so richer by the second, with the poor people getting poorer by the minute and the middle class paying for it all, when is it all going to stop.
    • 3/5
      1) I read a lot of this type of fiction so I was interested to see what the author could do.2) The introduction drew me in but left me a little confused. It was only about 1/3 of the way through that I better understood some of the details of the first couple of pages.3) The characters were reasonable. Nick was well-formed and deep. His ex-girlfriend was less so. She seemed like a bit of a ghost. Her boss, Javier Lozano, was pure stereotype. Always a hard charging screamer. The member of the Supreme Court was new as they don't usually make it into a ton of books. Nice angle there.4) The domestic terror angle is newer in fiction and was well done. I like books that make me set them down to do a bit of research on the 13th and 14th amendments.5) I moved through this in one sitting6) Final Thought - A reasonable way to spend a few hours. Nice work

      Nick James is fired from a Washington group called Center Tech, BUT he, as it turns out is The world expert on Posse Comitatus, a rogue, vigilante/militant group. Then a supreme court justice is kidnapped and so the story begins about a plot, it turns out, to attack Washington, D. C. Our hero, Nick, and various officials track down the bad guys. The usual murders, chases and kidnaps ensue. This not a bad story and it held my interest to the end. There is really no hero here in the sense of a Jack Reacher or a cop figure such as Lucas Davenport. The dialogue is so so and there is little humor. The author does not let us witness an implied and later authenticated rape--with little mention of it later, other than trauma caused. i would say, as thrillers go, this one is somewhat mediocre. Not a bad read, but not in competition with the better thriller writers around today.
    • 5/5
      Suspense, intrigue, domestic terrorism what more can you ask for when the story has great characters and moves at a pace that leaves you breathless. This was a book that I stayed up all night reading because I just could not put it down. The scary part is that it was way too real. The author uses an understanding of the Posse Comitatus and the historical underpinnings of the Oklahoma City bombing to create a novel of home grown, grass roots terrorism brought to a national stage. Nick James is a governement contract worker specializing in domestic terrorism, with a special understanding and appreciation for local militia groups upset with the government. One day he is fired because the contract he is working on is not renewed. The same day a Supreme Court Justice is kidnapped and a small town sheriff looking for Nick is found dead outside Nick's Washington, DC apartment. How is it all related, Nick must find out before he winds up in jail or even worse - dead. This is simply a must read for those who read mysteries with FBI and police elements.
