“I just finished reading Terror in Frankfurt and found the story both compelling and heart-warming. The real-life story of US Air Force MSgt Trevor D. Brewer is inspiring, and the depiction of his tours of duty around the world as a member of the security police were both interesting and entertaining. As a former Air Force officer who served during Operation Desert Shield/Desert Storm, I deeply appreciated MSgt Brewer’s focus on the mission, dedication to his team, and to his training, as this prepared him for that fateful day on the bus at the Frankfurt Airport in 2011. In addition, MSgt Brewer’s candid admission to suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) because of the terrorist attack sheds honest light on this important topic in our society, especially for military and first responders. A terrifically written and highly entertaining tale…well done W. Craig Reed and MSgt Brewer. I highly recommend reading this book!”

“Whether you enjoy military history in general or biographies in particular, Terror in Frankfurt: The Untold Story About One of the Worst Terrorist Attacks in U.S. Air Force History by Master Sergeant Trevor D. Brewer and W. Craig Reed is for you. This engaging memoir follows the life and career of MSgt Brewer from childhood, culminating in his role in helping to capture the terrorist who was found guilty of the 2011 Frankfurt Airport shooting which left two United States Air Force airmen dead, two wounded, and many impacted for life by the emotional trauma. MSgt Brewer’s account provides a unique perspective. His courageous and swift actions that day garnered an Airman’s Medal and the Cross of the Order of Merit from the German government.

“In Terror in Frankfurt, MSgt Trevor D. Brewer and W. Craig Reed give us a well-written first-person narrative with multiple layers. First is MSgt Brewer’s own story of his childhood, family, interests in martial arts and music, his decision to enter military service, and his subsequent assignments and achievements. His seeking a security forces career rather than that of a musician, as he once contemplated, eventually places him on a military bus transport at the Frankfurt Airport in 2011 just as a terrorist decides to kill the passengers onboard. Second is the effect of both physical and emotional trauma, whether experienced on a battlefield, during a terrorist attack, or in other violent settings in the civilian world. Post-traumatic stress disorder is a reality with which many of our fellow Americans and their families struggle every day. A fascinating read. Highly recommended.”

“News accounts seldom capture or do true justice to a harrowing incident. It takes far more in-depth study and analysis. Brewer and Reed’s Terror in Frankfurt is a harrowing must-read for anyone who wants to understand terrorism, the radicalization of assassins, and the roots behind it all. It is a story of Hollywood, news reporting, and culpability across a wide spectrum. But most importantly, it’s a tale of bravery and perseverance. Read this today to understand tomorrow.”

“Terror in Frankfurt brings the terrorism threat front and center and chronicles, through the eyes of U.S. Air Force Staff Sergeant Trevor Brewer, one of the most terrifying terrorist attacks in U.S. Air Force history.”
