John Errett,
Author of
The Owl and the Hawk

If your mother, your wife, or your best friend were killed in a senseless terrorist attack... What would you do? in his new novel, The Owl and the Hawk, author John Errett reveals a plan, which if in effect on 9/11, would likely have avoided that horrible catastrophe, as well as other terrorist attacks, all together.

A native New Yorker now living in Florida, John Errett has seen the world. His multiple careers - first as president of Holiday Planning Corp., a world wide travel organization; then as a co-founder of United Intelligence, Inc. (UNITEL) and later as vice president of strategic services for Conair Corporation - have afforded him 40 years of extensive international travel and cultural appreciation.

John used his vast experience in the intelligence community to spell out a plan to help rid the world of Muslim terrorism. "The book began as a work of nonfiction," John explains. "The further I got into it, the more it started to song like an encyclopedia. I thought, 'Who wants to read an encyclopedia?'" It was then that The Owl and the Hawk went from a reference book to a suspense novel.

The Owl and the Hawk is a gripping espionage thriller featuring heroism, treachery, betrayal and death. in the book, billionaire American businessman, Alan Davis takes on the fanatical Muslim extremists with all the power at his disposal. He challenges the ineffectiveness of the United Nations, NATO, the EU and the various world governments to win the war against terrorism.

Alan reasons that the only way to win the war will be for the good Muslims of the world to defeat the evil ones and re-establish a peace-loving Islam. Accordingly, he assembles a formidable team including a former deputy director of the CIA, a former senior agent of British MI-6 and his alluringly beautiful Muslim wife, Aly. Together they form ADALA, meaning “justice” in Arabic, to combat Al Qaeda and all its evil fellow travelers anywhere in the world.

"The book is a hell of a good read, even if you don't want to learn how to defeat terrorism," John says. "It is a thrilling page-turner."

John and his wife Kitty have been together for over 32 years and have 3 grown sons. John is currently working on a few different projects and is on the lookout for up and coming authors. "I would like to take advantage of the things I have learned publishing this book," he explains.
