When undercover FBI agent Matt Hogan totals three vehicles in an out-of-policy Beverly Hills pursuit of a fleeing Arab drug runner, he incurs the wrath of the Bureau hierarchy. To avoid an almost certain suspension, he accepts a new assignment tracking terrorist cell groups while posing as a volunteer at a nonprofit charity. What he doesn't know is the ripples of danger from this case will threaten not only his life but the safety and security of the entire nation.

"A page-turning roller coaster that feels like Jack Bauer's 24 without sailing over the top."

Publishers Weekly

"Bob Hamer's debut novel delivers realism only an undercover FBI agent can bring. Enemies Among Us will grab you from word one and stay with you long after you've read the last evocative page. Mitch Rapp has a new friend in the world of fictional heroes, FBI Special Agent Matt Hogan."

Vince Flynn, New York Times #1 best-selling author

"Knowing Hamer 'walked the talk' as an FBI undercover agent gives this thriller a genuine edge that rings like a struck bell."

Kevin Sorbo, producer/director and star of Hercules: The Legendary Journeys and Gene Roddenberry's Andromeda

"Hamer brings a realism to his writing few authors can."

Karri Turner, actress from the CBS series JAG and recipient of the 2009 USO "Heart of a Patriot" Award

* Winner of the San Diego Christian Writers Guild "Best Fiction Award"

Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

Novels about undercover FBI agents nabbing terrorists are more credible when written by former FBI agents. Hamer's nearly three decades as a street agent gives weight to this thriller about erstwhile reckless agent Matt Hogan's redemption with the agency, his wife, and guilt-ridden past. In order to save his job, Hogan must leave his dangerous operations and infiltrate a Christian hospital, which he sees as a red herring to get him off the streets. But as the hospital is suspected of helping terrorists, Hogan has never had a more important assignment. Beyond thriller-speed action, the author includes references to Osama bin Laden, reflections on the difference between guilt and shame societies, and just enough hot married love for Christian fiction. Suspense is often pre-empted by unnecessary spoilers in the middle of the action: Fate was about to confront the team. Otherwise few flaws mar what is a page-turning roller coaster that feels like Jack Bauer's 24 without sailing over the top. Stereotype-bending dialogue and believable characters elicit fear of evil and call forth hope that good exists in all ethnicities and religions. (Mar.)

Jihad against America

Reviewed in the United States on February 16, 2010

I couldn't put this book down. Having read "The Last Undercover", a true story of the author's undercover work for the FBI, I pre-ordered this from Amazon as soon as I heard about it. I wasn't disappointed. Sometimes fiction can touch on truth more accurately than fact. Bob Hamer has accurately described the embedded threat to our country by a group that is arguably more of an uncompromising political ideology than a religion. Islamofacism has become the "third rail" in American politics that our elected officials refuse to acknowledge or name. If you look hard enough to learn the activities of CAIR and the "anti-hate speech" support they get from the U.N., you already know this threat is very real. The Ft. Hood massacre had everything in common with the Christmas underwear bomber and other terrorist attacks. The fact that 2009 had a full one-third of all the attempted and successful attacks since 9/11 might suggest that radical Islam is trying harder and getting closer to another large successful attack. Are there peaceful Muslims or are all Muslims violent people? The author doesn't judge Muslims, he writes as though he knows many peaceful Muslims as I'm sure he does. But he does open your eyes with this gripping and well-written narrative.

Brilliant Realism

Reviewed in the United States on April 18, 2011

With lifelike representation, Bob Hamer has written an intense, patriotic, and heroic thriller. Enemies Among Us delivers a heart-stopping ride in the fight against terrorists on our own shore--with realism hard to swallow, yet handled so skillfully you want to gulp it in one piece! When you consider that the story is conveyed by an author who lived it and breathed it, drawing from his own 26-year experience as an undercover agent for the FBI, it smacks you in the face. Loved it! Detailed research, woven from beginning to end, empowered the plot without making the reader feel buried with facts. I also lived vicariously through the central character--a genuine, macho, American hero, Matt Hogan, who happens to be down to earth and who is not afraid to admit his own inner struggles. The novel contained a necessary touch of compassion to create a perfect balance, and presented a wonderful, true-to-life spiritual message that didn't overwhelm. What topped it off for me was the fact that it was clean and this amazing hero was in-love married. How refreshing! Enemies Among Us is a novel that demands respect. Ditto for the author. I can't wait to read the next book, Targets Down.

Couldn't Put The Hamer Down

Reviewed in the United States on July 15, 2010

Wow I really liked this book. Pro-American and Pro-God, it doesn't get much better then that! Bob weaves a great story of suspense set in the current day United States. Based on real life possibilities this story shows what goes on behind the scenes by those willing to give their lives so that we can be free. This is not your Hollywood type of FBI story but one more based in reality. The main character Matt Hogan would never make it as a movie character because he spends most of this story while undercover moving boxes, painting walls and helping handicapped children. That may sound boring but believe me, it's not. There's plenty of action and suspense.

Bob writes with a sharp style from first person then narrative, never missing a beat. The characters are not deep but then who reads a book about terrorism for that anyway? They aren't shallow either but Bob spends more time writing the story them building characters. He allows the characters actions to speak more then their thoughts. For that I'm thankful. He also shows compassion for the children and others innocently caught in the grip of war. He never paints violence or war as a good thing. At times I wanted a counter argument when some of the terrorists were trashing the U.S. but their actions spoke louder then their words.

Biblically the book was solid. Matt's wife and a couple of others were Christians and they showed good character and spoke freely of Christ. It was great to see Christians reaching out to the lost, including the Muslims. Bob did not shy away from the topic and for that I'm greatful.

If you're looking for a good FBI story then get this book. As hard hitting as it is you still won't hear any of George Carlin's seven words you can't say on TV. I'm looking forward to reading another Matt Hogan story.

Provocative Must Read

Reviewed in the United States on March 8, 2010

An insider's view of the FBI battling a dangerous enemy living in our midst. This was a fascinating view of the life of an undercover agent. What's real and what's artistic license? Having known an FBI agent whose worst epithet was calling others a "bureaucrat," I suspect Matt Hogan's battles with the administrators reflect reality. The action is fast paced, but Hamer doesn't ignore the hard work and drudgery of undercover assignments. Fortunately he doesn't allow the story to get bogged down in it. It doesn't feel right to call this entertaining when the danger is real and the stakes so high right now in America. Hopefully characters like Hogan will inspire us to be better ourselves. I appreciated seeing a central character who could be admired even in his personal life with his wife. Matt Hogan is a real American hero and I hope we get to hear more from him in a sequel.

There are Enemies Among Us.

Reviewed in the United States on October 9, 2010

I would call this an action book from a Christian perspective. The author is a former FBI agent and brings in many of the details of working undercover from the viewpoint of one who's been there. It'll never wind up being a classic but if you like Christian fiction, and you like intrigue and action, then I think you'll like this book.

I have read this page turner with admiration for this first time author. I appreciated how religions.were treated with respect. The book also gave me some insight into the Middle Eastern situation. I was glad to read it from a Christian viewpoint.

Kept me on my toes with all the different characters, but the hospital caring for children who had lived through the physical and emotional damages of war was such a positive. I liked the fact that the personal life of the main character was an important part of this book. All in all it was a very good read. Well done for a first novel.

I enjoyed this book. It reflected a man's struggle with his faith but was not preachy. His wife's closeness to danger seemed a bit far fetched but it is a story after all.
