Peter Thomas Senese: Another Great Day In Washington, D.C. Helping A Friend

The United States Capitol

Yesterday, I had a great deal to do in Washington, D.C.  Funny, as I think about it, I always have a lot to do in Washington, D.C.

President George Washington

I make no apology when I say I love Washington and if I did not live in Los Angeles and New York and needed to pick another U.S. city to live in, I would unquestionably pick the city named after one of my heroes: our nation's first president, George Washington.

Over the past 25 years, I have come to visit Washington frequently.  In my earlier years, my travels revolved around business affairs I was involved with (it seemed back then, when living full-time in New York, I would spend 5-7 days a month in Washington).  Later, and as I created another component to my professional life as a geopolitical novelist, my visits included time spent researching various subjects contained in some of my novels.

The Library of Congress

My bonus when I do this: I would always write inside the Library of Congress.  Writing at the Library of Congress is something that I treasure and imagine I shall continue to do so long as I write, which I can't imagine not ever doing.  Additionally, and over the past few years, outside of my professional business travel or my writing escapaes, my visits to Washington also included my work trying to prevent children from being internationally kidnapped.

Russell Senate Buildting

So yesterday, was a very interesting day.  I started my day with an important meeting at the Federal Reserve Building, followed that with another meeting at the FEMA building, moved on to meetings at the Russell and Hart Senate Buildings, then eventually sat at the fountain located at the Library of Congress . . . where I am heading in a few minutes.

Yes, Washington has a great deal to offer me.  And for any of you who have not really spent any time here, I strongly advise you do.  This is really a magnificent town even if it is the home of the Washington Redskins National Football League team - Go Giants!

The Federal Reserve

As for yesterday, I was very pleased with all facets of my day; however, I was particularly glad of how things went for my pal Chris, who is fighting to protect his abducted daughter.

A few highlights:
1. A meeting at the Board of Governors Building for the Federal Reserve.

2. A meeting at FEMA.

3. Receiving the most beautiful flag ever created: the American Flag, which was flown over the United States Capitol Building in my honor in association with the volunteer work I perform with the I CARE Foundation.

4. Most of all, helping a freind continue his efforts to reuntie with his abducted daughter.

Best-selling Author Peter Thomas Senese To Release Global Epic 'The Den of the Assassin' on E-book

Author Peter Thomas Senese is pleased to announce his international espionage thriller titled The Den Of The Assassin will be released in e-book worldwide on July 14th, 2011 and will be available on all e-book platforms.

Critics have praised The Den Of The Assassin as an international financial espionage thriller steeped in the modern-day realities of our world, providing the story a visceral prescience teeming with realism and frightful possibilities of global terrorism, and Senese as a masterful writer of international intrigue.

Peter Thomas Senese commented, “For reader who enjoy fast-paced, multi-dimensional plots based upon historical events and plausible possibilities relevant to the world we live in today, The Den Of The Assassin takes audiences on a thrilling global geopolitical journey that evolves around New York City’s Wall Street.”

The Den Of The Assassin opens in New York City, where an unassuming investment banker, Tyler Boxter, is preoccupied with his all-consuming career that acts as a personal shield against the trappings of life that hide guilt and pain and memories he doesn't want.

A mysterious theft leads Boxter from the sanctity of his Wall Street office and thrusts him into the dark world of international terrorism -- where zealots stir in the brutal desserts of the Middle East, where dark, sunken eyes look into the abyss of Siberia's desolate terrains, where prisoners -citizens- who live on a remote peninsula in Asia would rather submit to isolationist cleansing than feel the wrath of a deceitful troll intent on destroying the ideals of the West. 



Unknown to Boxter, he is about to play a sophisticated but explosive game against a madman who is more savage and merciless than the winds of an atomic holocaust. From the current resurgence of former-KGB hard-liners in Russia and the corrupt oligarchs who control the black-market of the weapons trade, from the isolationist mountains of North Korea to the sweeping deserts of the Middle East, from the looming specter of biological warfare to the ways in which terrorists hide and wash their money, from the arcane methods by which corporate America funds itself to the inner workings of Wall Street's war rooms, to the secrets hidden behind the walls in Beijing, to the unthinkable intent of the once mighty Persian Empire, 'Den Of The Assassin' is an informative, compelling, spin-tingling international espionage thriller that will keep readers turning through the pages.

The Den Of The Assassin will be released in e-book on July 14th, 2011 and is presently available in hardcover form from traditional retailers and online merchants. The Den Of The Assassin was initially released in hardcover prior to the author’s unexpected race into the cyclones of international child abduction. Chasing The Cyclone, inspired by Peter Thomas Senese’s experiences in this area, will be released in hardcover later this summer.
