Captain Zack Adams is the only American who can identify an elusive terrorist, codenamed Chameleon. Disfigured during his Delta Force unit's failed attempt to neutralize the menacing terrorist, Adams is airlifted stateside. When he is reported missing from a military hospital, Pentagon officials fear Adams has been abducted by terrorists. Adams's wife becomes severely depressed when she learns her husband is missing in action, and their teenage son becomes incorrigible. Working from a secret military base in the Middle East, an unconventional C.I.A. counterterrorism specialist, Jack "Tarzan" Trzanky, takes matters into his own hands and masterminds a plan to neutralize Chameleon, locate the missing captain and restore domestic tranquility to the Adams household. Tarzan prefers working alone but he realizes his latest plan will require the assistance of a skilled operator. Her name is Mia. "In this psychological thriller, Dr. Remakus skillfully explores the minds of terrorists, covert operatives and military families. Mounting suspense, intricate sub-plots and unpredictable outcomes highlight this timely page-turner." - Mark A. Novitsky, Jr., M.D., psychiatrist "Unique characters, plots and dialogue leap out of Mia's pages. The novel's seamless transitions from one sub-plot to another make Mia a must-read." - David J. Blocki, counselor "If Lifetime produced this as a movie, I'd watch... This is definitely a book that will keep you turning the pages. It's probably one of the more interesting stories one could read this year." - San Francisco Book Review "Mia is fast paced and a fun blend of romance and spy thriller, very much recommended." - Midwest Book Review "The plot works really, really well." - Sacramento Book Review "There are a number of twists and turns. There's a lot of nice character development. The romance between husband and widow is especially nice. If you think that you have every permutation of the veteran-returns-home story, this one will definitely take you by surprise." - Portland Book Review "Dr. Bernard Leo Remakus can spin quite the story, as proven in his latest fiction work, Mia, an intricately woven tale sprinkled with controversial subjects." - Times-Leader Newspaper, Wilkes-Barre, Pa. "Mia by Dr. Bernard Remakus is a great story and will undoubtedly be made into a movie. His talent for weaving complex and timely plots can be experienced by reading any or all of his three novels. Once you read the first few paragraphs, just settle in. You will have to read to the end, no matter what else in your life is demanding your attention. He is a prolific writer and chooses his words well. He places you, the reader, into the action and soon you become one of the characters. As an author and college professor of writing, I would give him an A+. Terms like page-turner and must-read seem mild when trying to categorize this book. Be forewarned; proceed with caution. His writing is contagious, despite being prescribed by a medical doctor." - Julie A. Davey, professor and author
