If he loses, people die. That’s why he’s the best. He can’t afford to be anything else.As the top drone pilot at the Rapid Defense Center, Xander and his team fight an ever-escalating war against terrorist-controlled UAV’s (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles).

It’s the job of Xander and the RDC to save as many innocent lives as possible by shutting down these attacks as soon as they begin. This is drone-on-drone combat-to the death-pure and simple. And the RDC is damn good at what they do.That is until the RDC is taken out by a massive terrorist drone strike, made possible by the betrayal of a disgruntled former employee. Now with the country’s best line of defense against killer drones out of action, it’s a free-for-all for anyone who’s ever held a grudge against America. And all they need to participate is a three hundred dollar drone and a homemade bomb.From Las Vegas to San Diego, from Washington, D.C. to Karachi, Pakistan, Day of the Drone is a non-stop thrill ride of action adventure, as Xander and the beautiful broadcast reporter Tiffany Collins are pursued by terrorist hit squads from coast to coast and from one horrific event to the next.
