Ordinary Heroes is a fictional account that is just as real as tomorrow's headlines. The President of the United States is kidnapped by terrorists and imprisoned by Iran. Hamid Al-Basra intends to behead him on national television as his first step in creating a worldwide Caliphate. The United States is unable to use any clandestine operatives due to Hamid's sophisticated face recognition software and unhackable computer network. Even the US military is stymied by threats of WWIII from neighboring Russia and China. Disavowed CIA agent Brian Handly must then recruit five ordinary, but highly skilled American citizens to infiltrate Hamid's stronghold, and spirit the President away moments before the chopping block. Can an Olympic Gold medalist, a world-class martial artist, a major league baseball pitcher, and a barnstorming pilot use their skills to pull off the most desperate rescue mission of all times? Can they overcome their own personal dislike of the President, and risk their lives to save his? Can they do it in time before the United States invades Iran in defiance of Russia and China and ignites World War III? This is an exciting action tale of courage and sacrifice with a climactic finish.
