What is Connell International?
FBI agent Simon Sloan is wanted for killing his boss in Washington DC. Janelle Wesson is wanted for shooting an agent in Buenos Aires.
But Simon didn’t kill his boss. And Janelle was saving Simon’s life.
Now they’ve come to Dublin, Ireland where they are close to finding the answers that will prove Simon innocent and unravel the tangled web of an international crime organization. The first task—find Connell International.
Except they aren’t as close as they think.
Instead, they become entangled in a bizarre murder investigation they can’t escape from.
When they left Buenos Aires, Simon Sloan and Janelle Wesson were running for their lives.
Now in Athens, Greece, they’re hunting for a man named Kazan.
A man who could be the new leader of Group 141, Donavan Santana’s criminal empire. The man who gave the order to kill Simon’s boss at the FBI and pin the murder on him.
But in Athens, nothing is as it seems, and soon the pair are embroiled in a fight against a deadly drug trafficking operation.
Can they win this battle before the man sent to kill them succeeds in his mission?
It’s been almost two weeks, and Holloway still isn’t back from his ex-wife’s book tour. To top it off, Miranda is being hounded by her crusty Aunt Lu in Minnesota about her mother’s death. The last thing Miranda wants is to delve into her past again.
Worst of all, Parker has gone on a case without her. Now she’s royally PO’ed.
So PO’ed, she travels to Chicago on her own to prove her mother’s death was an accident and get her aunt off her back.
Okay. Their last case was an unintended surprise, but now it’s time for Miranda and Parker to relax and get back to retirement.
Except Curt Holloway, Miranda’s old buddy and teammate, has other plans. When he decided to leave the Investigative Agency, Parker put Holloway in his place as acting CEO.
Now Holloway wants out.
Well, just for a week.
Or so he says.
His ex-wife needs him, he says. He has to go, he says. Looks like he might walk for good if Miranda and Parker don’t say yes. And so they do. It’s not so bad. Everything is hunky dory for a while.
Until attorney Antonio Estavez shows up and tells them a convicted felon he once defended in court has escaped from prison.
And he’s coming to kill him.
They have to find this dangerous fugitive before it’s too late.
It doesn’t matter if you’re innocent…when the guilty come to kill you.
Not long ago Special FBI Agent Simon Sloan found his boss dead in his Washington DC office. He left a letter warning Sloan with one word—Run!
And so Sloan did. But he took someone with him.
Now he regrets that decision.
PI Janelle Wesson can’t believe she left her job at the Parker Agency for this. She thought she was in love with the secretive FBI Agent. Now she’s racing across South America with him with an unknown enemy at their heels—ready to destroy them as soon as they’re in his sights.
Will they survive in time to find out who killed Cooley and prove Simon’s innocence?
“ Keeps you in suspense until the very end .” Amazon reviewer
Is he a good cop? Or a vicious serial killer?
Lieutenant Maggie Delaney, head of Chicago’s elite GUTS unit can never seem to have a quiet evening at home.
Tonight she’s been sent out to investigate a tragic domestic homicide. But it’s much worse than that.
And when she realizes who the likely killer is, she can’t believe what the evidence is telling her. Maybe she shouldn’t. She knows this man. Or thought she did.
Now she has to prove him innocent of crimes he didn’t commit.
When private investigator Miranda Steele gets a call from an old “friend” in Dallas, Texas and decides to take his case, her boss and husband Wade Parker is none too pleased. Especially when she insists he stay home due to his recent injuries.
No way, Jose.
But the murder of a circus clown is about to lead her to something more disturbing and bizarre than even Parker could have predicted.
You’ll want to read this exciting mystery, because you won’t be able to put it down.
A woman can never make herself too tough, too strong, or too street smart.
In a ritzy subdivision outside Atlanta, a serial killer targets thirteen-year-old girls in a bizarre ritual, and smart-talking, pepper-eating Miranda Steele gets fingered for the murder.
Thirteen years ago, her abusive husband stole her baby and gave it up for adoption. Now Miranda gets her hands on a letter written by a girl in an Atlanta mansion—who claims she’s adopted. Is the author of that letter her long lost child?
