Author Raymond Paul Johnson discusses his debut novel, Conspiracy Ignited. Ray’s main character is a former CIA combat pilot-turned-California litigator named Eric Ridge. As the book opens, an attempt is made on Ridge’s life, which sets off a twisty, suspense-filled game of cat and mouse that ultimately leads to his discovery of a powerful cabal vying for control of the US legal system. This fast-paced thriller also touches on the civil trial lawyers, CIA operatives, the world of aviation, and the post-combat experiences of military veterans.
