About the Author
Don Brown is the author of Thunder in the Morning Calm, The Malacca Conspiracy, The Navy Justice Series, and The Black Sea Affair, a submarine thriller that predicted the 2008 shooting war between Russia and Georgia. Don served five years in the U.S. Navy as an officer in the Judge Advocate General's (JAG) Corps, which gave him an exceptional vantage point into both the Navy and the inner workings "inside-the-beltway" as an action officer assigned to the Pentagon. He left active duty in 1992 to pursue private practice, but remained on inactive status through 1999, rising to the rank of Lieutenant Commander. He and his family live in North Carolina, where he pursues his passion for penning novels about the Navy. www.donbrownbooks.com Facebook: Don-Brown

. Detained may have a lot to it, but is a military thriller worth the time.
By Jessica Higgins
For a man and his son who have always dreamed of the freedom America could bring, nothing turns out as they expected when they are thrown into the middle of a devious plot for power and corruption.
Hasan Makari and his son, Najib, are both from Lebanon but have dreamed of the day they would be part of the shining freedom that is America. Najib makes it into America to study and then joins the Navy, a dream come true. When it is finally time for Hasan to come visit his son, he is arrested at the airport, accused of terrorism and sent to Guantanamo Bay Prison camp in Cuba. The charges are false but no one believes them and they are now facing death by execution. They are assigned a lawyer, Navy JAG officer Matt Davis. He believes his clients are innocent but is under monumental opposition from powerful federal prosecutors. To further complicate the matter, the woman he loves has been assigned against him on the case.
While all this unfolds, Emily Gardner, a top ranking TSA lawyer has just received a nomination as General Counsel for the Department of Homeland Security. While preparing for confirmation by the Senate, she discovers a shocking scheme that will turn her life upside down and affect the lives of many others. Now that she has discovered this information, her life is in danger and she has to figure out how to save herself and help get the information to someone that can make a difference with it.
It is obvious that Brown knows his military law and the inner workings of the military and politics he is writing about. The story had lots of twist and turns and kept me guessing which way things would go. It is a little misleading at times though. From reading the back of the book you think it is going to focus more on Hasan and Najib, which it does to an extent in the first part of the book. But then the focus is shifted to Emily Gardner and her predicament. There was good tension from each angle explored but it almost seemed as if it could have been divided into two different distinct stories, or at least in parts. These were the main focal points of the story but there were many, many secondary characters throughout. So many that several could have been left out without affecting the story any.
I really enjoy military shows as well as books. This is one to add to my list.

Awesome book, possible his best. Great read for guys
By Mark B
From the first book I read by Don Brown, Treason, I have been hooked on his novels. I enjoy different genre's of books - some more than others - and military suspense is up near the top. Don Brown's books are all about the Navy and he is one of the best military fiction authors I have read. I have enjoyed all of his books, especially his Navy Justice Series, but I would have to say this one is his best one yet.
I thought the plot for this book sounded great, and I was not disappointed. Two innocent men, imprisoned without warning, and shut up in the infamous Guantanamo Bay Prison in Cuba. Knowing what I know about the author, I am sure he has a lot of knowledge about how things are done, and also did a lot of research. I am thus confident that although the events of the book are fictional, the way things are done and might happen in such circumstances are not fictional.
I really liked the characters in the book. Matt, the defense, thrown into a less than ideal trial and threatened and confounded at every turn. Hassan and Najib, Christian men who love this country that has suddenly turned against them.. and more. I was happy a couple of characters were brought back from the first series Brown did, and enjoyed the role they played in the books.
There is something Brown does in his books that more authors need to do when switching locations. Every time he chances location or starts a new chapter, he posts the where, when, and other details. It makes it a lot easier to keep up with what is going on where.
Even though I have enjoyed all of Brown's books, some of them have been a slower read. I don't mean that in a bad way, some of them have taken more thought and time to digest. This book was a fast read for me. It had a lot going on and it grabbed me from the start and I didn't want to slow down or put the book down.
And yet this book was more than an entertaining read. It was a fascinating look into how accused terrorists might be treated and the process that is gone through to try them. It is a warning of what could happen if one of our too many government agencies gets too powerful and doesn't have enough oversight.
If I have any criticism of the book, it would be that the end seemed rushed. I still loved the ending, but it seemed to come too fast after the build up.
This is the first book in the Navy J.A.G series, and I am looking forward to reading more of this series and about the characters that have been introduced in this book.

Great thriller!
By Kelly B.
I am drawn to books and movies with car chases and high chances for danger. That is why the Fast and Furious movies are my all-time favorite. Plus, I love the family and religious aspects woven in the plot. Similarly, I am a fan of NCIS, the television show. I have never read anything by Don Brown, but when the opportunity arose to review his newest book, Detained, I jumped on the chance. True to a thriller, Brown captures his readers with high speed chases, terrorist threats, and characters who tug at your heart.
This thriller is brought to life by several main characters. At first it was a lot to keep track of, but after finishing the book I realized how each individual character was integral to the story being told. My heart really ached for Najib and Hasan as their story unfolded, even as the other characters fought for and against them, battling for American justice and enforcing the Constitution. I especially liked how, even though some characters spent a lot of time praying over their involvement, the mention of God was never preachy or intrusive: it was simply woven into each character’s core being, and shown as a strength, not a sign of weakness.
The action in this book spanned the globe—from Philadelphia, Washington, D. C., and Norfolk, Virginia, to Guantanamo Bay and Rome, and even the plane flying over the Atlantic Ocean in between. The story started off with a literal bang and did not let me go until the very end. It was fast moving and explosive. A few scenes had me cringing while others had my eyes flying over the words, so I could keep up with the action. True to the thriller genre, the tension and conflict caused nail-biting moments mixed in with political wrong, begging me not to put the book down.
The beginning of the book had more prose and less dialogue than I usually care for, and as a result it felt a little unbalanced and it took me a while to really get inside the characters’ minds. As the action picked up, however, they balanced out and made the story that much more powerful. This novel also really came to life thanks to Brown’s vast, first-hand experience of his subject matter, having spent five years as a Judge Advocate General (JAG) before starting his own private practice. His knowledge of the Navy’s inner workings and chains of command really shows, and definitely heightened this book’s realism.
Speaking of realism, this book’s grim subject matter does necessitate some material which may be offensive or off-putting to ultra-conservative readers, including vivid descriptions of torture, brutality, and a suicide. While graphic, however, the scenes were very organic and essential to the story and were not thrown in for mere shock value. As a movie, this story would be rated PG-13 at least, but most likely rated R. This book would definitely appeal to fans of NCIS and Mel Odom’s NCIS book series (Paid in Blood, Blood Evidence, and Blood Lines). Brown has become a new favorite author of mine, and if this book is anything to judge by, I can’t wait to go out and get his other eight books!
In short, Detained is an emotionally-engaging, high-adrenaline chase thriller that kept me riveted to each page, and dared me to consider just how far I would be willing to go to see justice served.
