“Don’t be surprised if you wake up bruised and bloody after a night of reading this one!”
For fans of Robert Ludlum and Lee Child, BLACK FIRE is the newest addiction, a “tour de force of explosive action” that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
“Masterfully written, this book is a must-read…”
Major Tommy Black stands at the crossroads of a brilliant clandestine career, with his life in black ops sealed in buried records and whispered stories of violent exploits.

Unleashing all his military experience and fury, he embarks on a relentless race across the world to save her.
Battling corrupt police and murderous gangsters, Black wages war against an army of mercenaries and international sex traffickers led by a psychopath who wants the girl for his own. As 1000-year storms converge above them, Black sacrifices everything for the nearly impossible chance to save the girl—and perhaps his own soul.
