Readers who enjoy James Patterson, Elmore Leonard, and Robert B. Parker should love every moment of this collection.

And in both Take Down (Book 1) and Gravel Road (Book 2), he ends up in the fights of his life.

This is the book you've been looking for: a deep, dark conspiracy that should delight those who loved the Jason Bourne movies, as well as fans of authors Vince Flynn, Tom Clancy, and Stephen Hunter. You won't believe what happens when free speech slams into the messy realities of national security. Meet Nick Woods, a former Marine Scout Sniper, who used to be one of our country's greatest operatives. Meet Allen Green, a ballsy reporter in his fifties, who's desperate to break the biggest story since Watergate.

Nick Woods and his elite band of shooters from Shield, Safeguard, and Shelter (S3) deploy to Africa on their next mission to deal with an out-of-control terrorist group that now holds more than 20,000 square miles of land. This terrorist group, called the Boko Haram, has finally gotten the attention of America's leaders. Its tactics of abducting children and ruthlessly expanding its territory pose a threat to Nigeria and the countries surrounding it.

In the scorching oven of Helmand Province, Afghanistan, the roots of an incredible bond between two Marine squad leaders are forged in the flames of combat. Marines are dying, things are messed up with command, and new forces led by a veteran Taliban leader have returned to the area of operations. Making things worse, the Taliban have smuggled in from Iran a new weapons system previously NEVER seen in Afghanistan. These two squad leaders -- Sergeant Morgan and Corporal Dean -- are about to face the biggest test of their lives. Orders from above will clash with realities on the ground. And ...

Nick Woods is tired of waiting. America's greatest sniper has spent the better part of two years up in the mountains of Montana, waiting for the government to double-cross him and try to come get him. But what Nick doesn't know is that the Mexican government stands on the verge of complete collapse. A brilliant madman has united the drug cartels into a deadly alliance, and the Mexican president holds a perilous grip on power.

Nick Woods and your favorite members of S3 (Marcus, Truck, and Red) plunge back into action again. This time he and his team are deployed to Afghanistan, where the Taliban is poised to seize the capital city of Kabul and take over the country for good. The Taliban is well led by an impressive spiritual warrior, and, making matter worse, America's political leadership is sick of investing men and resources into a war that's now lasted 15 years.

Did you love "Lonesome Dove," "Appaloosa," or the movie "Django Unchained?" If so, then you've found the book for you. "Little Man, and the Dixon County War" begins with action and ends with action, barely letting up from its fast start to its incredible, heart-stopping end. From literally the first sentence, you'll see why it's climbed as high as No. 16 on the Amazon UK Paid List. Book Description: Young Deputy Marshal Paul Zachary shouldn’t have accepted that badge. And he certainly shouldn’t have shot down a ruthless gunfighter in front of a crowd of onlookers at Belleville’s ...

Dolan, a private investigator and former Army Ranger, takes up the case of a missing seventeen-year-old girl after he learns that the cops are doing nothing. Not only is he the girl’s best chance: he’s her only chance. But she has a stunningly-attractive aunt, who's insisting on taking part in the chase. And that's not the only danger. As the trail leads up into the mountains and he closes in on finding her, Dolan begins to realize that he might be in over his head. And the hunter might just become the hunted.

One of Tennessee’s most talented big-city detectives leaves the tough streets of Memphis and smashes into a small town’s deep and dark secret. This quaint, sleepy little town appears normal on the surface, but Danny Acuff (a prior force recon marine) senses there’s a lot more going on than meets the eye. Before it’s all said and done, there will be dead cops and two former Special Forces soldiers trying to kill Danny. He may have left the war zone of Afghanistan behind him, but Danny Acuff is about to enter a new one.

S3 faces two sweeping catastrophes in the fast-moving, action-packed book “Ukrainian Fire.” First, the men and women of S3 (Shield, Safeguard, and Shelter) get thrown into the politics of the Washington, D.C. chopping block. And almost overnight, S3 is cut down to the bare bones. Then, still reeling from this nearly fatal blow, the downsized version of S3 is sent on a desperate mission to Ukraine. A secret backpack nuke has been stolen from Ukraine by the Russians, and the Russians plan to use it in the heart of Europe, taking out Berlin and blaming Ukraine in the process. The United ...

Danny Acuff, an insanely-talented detective and prior Force Recon Marine, returns to the hunt in Gravel Road. Danny's moved up in the world, working at the TBI (Tennessee Bureau of Investigation). He's paid a lot more, but the stakes are higher. MUCH higher. He's also been assigned a new partner. She’s -- quite frankly -- a bombshell. But she’s got sharp elbows. And she doesn't like Danny. Worse still, there’s a case that's either dangerous as hell; or completely non-existent. Yeah, one of those cases. It's the kind of case that either ends your career because you can't solve it, or ...

Three great stories for one low price. ("Hill 406," "Soldier On," and "Little Man, and the Dixon County War.") From the pure hell of Afghanistan, to the corrupt and lawless Texas frontier, to the freezing forests of Germany (after the Battle of the Bulge in World War II), you'll find plenty of action in these three tales. Trust us: there is enough action to satisfy anyone's appetite. But you'll also find -- even in the fast pacing and first-rate dialogue -- a depth and solemnity to the books. And writing and pacing that will blow you away. There is a reason that everyone is starting to talk...
