Cal Walker has been hiding. Assigned to the Black Mountain fire lookout after a rescue gone wrong, he's spent months watching the forest from a distance — close enough to help, far enough to avoid the cost of failing again. Then dry lightning strikes a ridge ten miles out, and five teenagers are trapped in the burn zone with no way out. Getting them home is the job. But when Cal walks the fire line, the scorch patterns are wrong — metal fused, earth glassed, heat concentrated in ways no natural fire produces. Someone made this fire burn hotter. And they had a reason. Cal starts asking ...

When every instrument fails, you navigate by instinct — or you die. The electromagnetic storm rolls in like nothing Cal Walker has seen before. GPS fails. Radios die. The instruments in the fire lookout spin uselessly. Somewhere deep in the backcountry, a small plane drops off radar. No coordinates. No signal. No way to call it in. Cal launches into the mountains the old way — compass, terrain, and memory. Dead reckoning. The method sailors used to cross oceans before satellites existed. You know where you started. You know your speed and heading. You calculate where you must be. You ...

Eight operators. One wildlife officer. The swamp chose sides. Florida Fish and Wildlife officer Mac Tanner has spent eight years learning the Everglades — every slough, every cypress dome, every patch of ground that looks solid but isn't.

One wildlife officer who knows exactly where the ground gives way. The swamp doesn't care about federal authority. Neither does Mac Tanner. PROWLERS — Book 1 of The Glades Series.

There are those who would harm America. Terrorists. Assassins. Foreign operatives. The Border Patrol tries to hold back the lethal tsunami, but at times it’s just overwhelming.

They built it in secret. They ran it in the dark. Frank Kane burns it down in the open. Elena Marsh was doing aid work in Chad when she photographed the wrong man. Forty-eight hours later she was hooded, airborne, and imprisoned on a decommissioned oil platform eighty miles off the Louisiana coast — a facility that officially doesn't exist. Colonel Lyle Hargrove built it for the CIA. Then three years ago he stopped reporting to anyone and started selling what it produced to the highest bidder. Foreign intelligence services. Private contractors. Anyone who could pay and provide subjects ...

A family is stranded in the middle of the torrent with no way out and the water still rising. To the south, a wildfire is crowning through the canopy, cutting off the only road into the canyon. Cal Walker has faced fire. He's ...
