About the book
EVERYTHING COMES AT A COST…
Author Brent Towns keeps the action coming thick and fast, let’s you up for a breath and then drags you back in for more.
After he is betrayed and shoots the two most powerful men in the Irish Mob, John “Reaper” Kane is forced into hiding. He thinks Retribution, Arizona, is the perfect hiding place, but he is wrong. Underneath the old, crusty surface of the dying town, hides the Montoya Cartel, for they use it as a funnel to ship their drugs across the border.
Trying to lay low in a town gripped with lawlessness is impossible for the ex-recon marine, especially after the local sheriff is brutally murdered by the Montoya Cartel’s sicario, leaving an old friend, Deputy Sheriff Cara Billings, the only person standing between them and the town.
Things go from bad to worse when Kane is arrested by Cleaver, the deputy in the cartel’s pocket, for shooting a local gang member.
Enter DEA Agent Luis Ferrero who has expressed to his bosses for a long time the need for a task force to fight the cartels on their own ground. He’s about to get his wish, and to head up his team, he wants the Reaper.
A thrill ride that doesn’t let you go – Retribution is the first novel in the action-packed Reaper Series.

About the book
Former FBI Special Agent Kade Black is wanted for a crime he didn’t commit. The kind of crime handled outside the normal courts of law. Renditions. Interrogations. A cryptic trail left by a dead Russian double agent is his only hope.
When the trail leads him to the rugged Oregon coast in his battered RV, Kade isn't the only surprise for the sleepy little town. There's a body on the beach. Signs of a horrific ritual killing. Kade soon discovers he's the only one who can solve this grisly murder.
Meanwhile, his former colleagues, an elite FBI surveillance unit, are closing in. He's got little time to solve the murder and collect the evidence he needs to prove his innocence.
But inside him, a devil stirs. One that threatens to change his quest for justice into pure revenge. This new case will awaken the dark legacy haunting him. Remind him of the unforgiving world he was born to behind the walls of a remote militia compound known only as Fort Black.
Will Kade stay loyal to his oath? Or will he succumb to the vengeful blood running through his veins?
Either way, one thing is certain: with vigilante Kade Black on the hunt, the guilty will pay.

About the book
An American president who will do anything to win reelection.
An Iranian leader who will stop at nothing to bring about apocalypse.
An ancient evil, only waiting to be reborn. . .
High in the Alborz Mountains of northwestern Iran, an archaeological team disappears. Americans are among the missing. Days later, imagery from U.S. spy satellites reveals detachments of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps descending upon the site. . .
With the presidential election only months away, President Roger Hancock authorizes a covert CIA mission into the mountains of Iran. Their objective: rescue the archaeologists and uncover the truth.
With fifteen years in the Clandestine Service, paramilitary operations officer Harry Nichols is unquestionably the man for the job. He's a tough, ruthless veteran operator. He's led his men into harm's way time and again.
For him, it's all about the mission. It's all about the team. He's never seen anything like this before.
The mission itself is suspect. His team can no longer be trusted. And a misstep means world war. . .
