"Once again Randall Krzak leverages a career in government and the experience of living in the regions he writes about to give added credibility to Dangerous Alliance, another fast-paced, international thriller and a worthy follow-on to his debut novel, The Kurdish Connection. This time the “Bedlam” operatives must deal with the intrigues of the North Koreans working to bypass international sanctions in an alliance with Somali pirates to buy oil with military arms. The Bedlam Teams are further challenged when their mission is expanded to rescue an heir to the British throne kidnapped while volunteering in a Somali refugee camp in nearby Kenya. Reminiscent of Lee Child and Vince Flynn, the author gives the reader an adrenalin rush that will keep you turning the pages."—Preston Holtry, author of the Morgan Westphal period mystery series and the Arrius Trilogy

“Randall Krzak strikes again, this time with Dangerous Alliance, a novel constantly on the move with an inconceivable partnership between North Korea and Somali pirates. The North Korean “Supreme Leader attempts to circumvent international petroleum sanctions by entering a pact with the Somalis to provide them with weapons to further their terrorism in exchange for oil. Charged with thwarting the dangerous alliance, the multi-national special operatives ‘Bedlam’ must rescue a British Royal family member held hostage by the terrorists. Filled with action and suspense this ride around the world will turn the pages on their own.”—AJ Wallace, author of the Sideways Eight series, featuring FBI Special Agents Sean Murphy and Charley Faraday

“An exciting roller coaster of emotion, action, and a kinship borne of dedication against impossible odds. Strong men and iron women committed to the truth and each other in a battle to preserve the world from those that take life without thought. This tale will not let you down.”—Oliver F. Chase, author of Camelot Games, Levant Mirage, Blind Marsh, and March Island

“In response to an unlikely alliance between North Korea and Somalia pirates, Bedlam Bravo, a team led by Colonel Trevor Franklin (Ret.), is introduced. Randall describes the team’s progress through increasingly perilous situations as they attempt to unravel the many layers of diplomacy and cunning to meet their goals. Hooked on the action from page one, I was unable to stop reading—and neither will you.”—B Douglas Slack, author of You Only Love Twice

“Like a gourmet chef, the author keeps a bunch of pots on the stove, cooking them up to a wonderful feast at the end, when all the sub-plots come together in a terrific ending. A true thriller.”—Russell F. Moran, award-winning, best-selling novelist, author of The Gray Ship

“Author Randall Krzak masterfully takes characters and settings most people are not familiar with and creates a rich story with sympathetic characters and lush backgrounds. These are not places most people would tread, so it’s nice to learn about them through the eyes of a man who has personal knowledge of them.  Randall’s amazing mix of intrigue and suspense will keep you turning page after page.”—M.D. Neu, author of The Calling and The Reunion

"Page by page Randall takes you on a journey full of history, suspense, intrigue, and action as you travel across a multitude of countries with the Bedlam Special Operations team in their quest to recover the cache of weapons and maintain international peace." This is a MUST READ for all!”—Les Stahl, Retired NSA Executive
