The Companion (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798891125384)

The Companion follows the life of Johan who is destined to save the government of the United States as we know it today. Johan is raised by his grandparents in a small town in North Dakota. Unknown to Johan, both of his grandparents, as youths, had been recruited by the Strategic Defense Intelligence Agency (SDIC), the forerunner to the current Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). The information and documents they recovered and provided played a significant role at that time, and their input to current affairs made them significant players in world events today.

As Johan matures, he learns more of his grandparents' connections within the government and how influential they still are. He also learns of the secret life they once lived and one he will soon follow. Johan's mission is to determine how a very rich and powerful Russian controls some of the most politically influential people in the world. His controls include several men and women in the United States.

Top levels in the CIA have determined they must learn how he exercises his control. Johan is the perfect choice for this mission. Johan prepares for his mission by going through extensive physical and mental training in order to ensure he will be able to complete the assignment and not release any information which could be a detriment to the United States. After completing this complex assignment, he returns home to his beloved family and town. A journey of self-discovery, trials, and challenges, The Companion also provides humor to otherwise grim and desperate situations.
