“This top-notch thriller, third in the authors’ Red Hotel series, works well as a stand-alone for readers new to the series. Well-drawn, believable characters, an impressive [although a bit terrifying in its realism] plot, and heart-stopping action all work together to pull the reader into the telling of the tale from the outset. Taking advantage of the precariousness of the current world situation, the unfolding story is frighteningly realistic. Back-office scheming in Washington adds to the realism; the compelling tale is replete with real-world implications. Suspenseful, electrifying, and alarming, the formidable tale is one readers will find impossible to set aside before turning the final page. Don’t miss this one.”

“Put the Do Not Disturb placard on your door and settle into the latest thriller in the RED HOTEL series, RED CHAOS. And trust me, chaos is ready to break out in Fuller and Grossman’s most timely novel yet! This team of masterful authors race us through one heart-pounding scene to another with prescient vision of the world as it is and things to come. Trust me, RED CHAOS delivers as a page-turning thriller that also waves a red flag at real geo-political issues we better pay attention to now!”

Roger DowFormer President & CEO U.S. Travel Association

“I’ve been engaged in national and homeland security for over 45 years, I seldom read fiction. When I do, it is historical fiction. It most often provides opportunities to learn interesting facts in an enjoyable way. While RED CHAOS is not an historical novel, given today’s news, it affords the reader an extremely compelling, most realistic and fast paced story. In crafting this riveting read, Ed Fuller and Gary Grossman have written a thriller that reflects their impressive knowledge of today’s strategic global dynamics. But they must be seen as prescient given the events happening at this moment: The real-world implications of climate change on global trade and national security, and the fragility of the world’s avenues for commerce. RED CHAOS is a timely must read for those seeking a book that is both stimulating and eye- opening.”

“In RED HOTEL-and RED DECEPTION, my Marriott colleague and global nomad, Ed Fuller, brings his love of politics and his experience in the Vietnam War and deep inside knowledge of the hotel and travel industry including crisis management to build another political thriller with Gary Grossman, an acclaimed novelist and TV producer and journalist. Pour some of the current global uncertainty into this cocktail, and you have the combustion of RED CHAOS.”

Kathleen MatthewsAmbassador for World Travel & Tourism Council, Former ABC News Anchor, Former Marriott International Senior Executive

“RED CHAOS, Gary Grossman and Ed Fuller’s newest thriller, vividly draws us into two worlds: one where Washington’s power-hungry walk the halls, scheme in back offices, and lurk in the shadows of the White House and Congress, and another fraught with the intrigue and occasional inanities of international business. They engage us in the machinations of a talented assassin, an empire building, oil-crazed autocrat in the Kremlin, and a fixer in China. We see the morally ambivalent and morally bankrupt—from Moscow to Macau to Washington. Readers will cheer their richly drawn hero and heroine, international hotel executive and sometime spy Dan Reilly and Secretary of State Elizabeth Matthews as they continue the fight for right in this entertaining series firmly rooted in the real world.”

“There have been more terrorist attacks on hotels around the world than any other target. Ed Fuller was there, lived it and dealt with it. I know. I worked for Marriott for 35 years. From 1989 to 2012 I was the Vice-President of Safety & Security on Ed’s team. Through our close relationships with key government entities we established security protocols for our international hotels (including over 200 “threat condition RED” hotels). And believe me, RED CHAOS is the first word to the last on crisis management from someone who literally wrote the book.”

Alan OrlobFounder & CEO, Orlob Group

“I was the commander of an F4 squadron on the USS Midway and I know what America’s Navy can do with its air power in a crisis. Having been impressed with the first two books of the Red Hotel series, I eagerly awaited reading the next volume. With RED CHAOS, Ed Fuller and Gary Grossman exceeded my expectations. Their third work is a timely fictionalization of the volatile world we live in. It is exciting and accurate; a 21st century thriller and a must read!”

Tom KoehlerCommander, F-4 pilot, Ret. USN

“Just when I thought Fuller and Grossman couldn’t turn up the heat any more after their award-winning RED DECEPTION, along comes RED CHAOS, with a spot-on, globe-hopping plot. Ed Fuller comes to thriller writing from years as an international hotel executive job. On top of that, he had a heavy dose of anti- terrorism experience. His collaboration with Gary Grossman delivers ticking clock scenarios that play out real because so much of it is real, or just on the edge of reality. RED CHAOS is a top flight thriller that will have you spell-bound from page one!”

Douglas F. MuldoonChief of Police (ret), City of Palm Bay Police Department, 2013 FBI National Academy Associates President

“RED CHAOS is a timely, pulse-pounding thriller that exposes the complex and dangerous web of espionage, international business, and geopolitics. Five star hotels are at the epicenter of the secret deals that shape our lives, and, as a hotel security executive, former US Army intelligence officer Dan Reilly is uniquely positioned to see what goes down in the bars, lobbies, and lavish private suites everywhere from London to Beijing. When a Russian oil magnate is assassinated at one of his London properties, Reilly launches an investigation that could expose treachery and violence at the highest levels of multiple governments — and puts him in the crosshairs of men willing to kill to cover it up. This is a tour de force by authors Fuller and Grossman that will leave readers clamoring for more.”

Dante ParadisoAuthor of the The Embassy: A Story of War and Diplomacy

“Turn off the news channels right now, crack open RED CHAOS, Ed Fuller and Gary Grossman’s incredible new thriller. Fuller has the inside track on bringing his experience in the field to the page. I know. I spent time with him in Iraq and you better believe he’s one of the best of the good guys. Together with Grossman they weave together a web of lies, murder, and treachery that reach to the highest levels of government in Washington. Back at the center of the action is international hotel executive Dan Reilly who must decide whether a nefarious Chinese fixer is trying to help America or bring it down. It all feels so real. It’s a read written from the inside out. A winner – Second Place is not close.”

Frank HemlickLieutenant General US Army (Ret)

“Be ready to be catapulted into the real world of international intrigue that keeps national security experts up at night. A world where leading international oil executives are assassinated. Oil tankers are sunk in the Straits of Hormuz. An attack on the Suez Canal closes shipping for a year. Who benefits from actions like these? You’ll find out in RED CHAOS by Fuller and Grossman, and all-too real scenario with heart- pumping action from Washington to London, the Arabian Sea to the North Atlantic, Russia to China. Areas where I served, that remain in the headlines today. You’ll be swept along with RED CHAOS as I did. It’s the fastest read on the shelves in a long, long time!”

William GrimsleyMajor General US Army (Ret), Secretary of South Carolina Department of Veterans Affairs

“A complex web of intrigue! Compelling and fascinating! Fuller and Grossman weave a timely tale of Russian expansionism and terrorism in RED CHAOS against a backdrop of political intrigue. You will not put this thriller down as Dan Reilly races to prevent Russian world and oil domination. The authors take you behind the closed doors of our National Security to illuminate how seemingly unrelated occurrences are part of Russia’s intricate plan. I loved this book and it holds a prized place on my bookshelf.”
