The North Koreans decide to bomb both the Republican and Democratic National Conventions, to throw the United States into disarray by wiping out the leaders from both parties. The Koreans create radiological dispersal devices (RDDs), and with Iranian help smuggle the bombs into the United States. Domestic terrorists then disguise the bombs and hide them near the convention centers where the two political parties will meet to choose their candidates. Can the FBI, led by Chicago's new Special Agent in Charge Bill Peterson, find the bombs and disarm them before two cities are destroyed? The tension mounts as the conventions get closer on the calendar...

America has outsourced its criminal justice system, and the professional executioner of the Bureau of Justice and Corrections Services is the paladin of corporate law enforcement. Termination Operative Sean Callahan is a 12-year veteran with the BJCS in a dystopian Chicago in 2045. The Bureau's best TO, and its most troublesome, he is unwillingly paired with a young but street-hardened rookie, Abril Desanya, to teach her the skills of the executioner's trade, and their antagonistic relationship develops into a guarded love affair. Callahan violates BJCS protocol to investigate a troubling termination and discovers evidence of pervasive corruption - putting his life, and Desanya's, in peril.

Robert Smithson is the FBI's worst nightmare, a biochemist trained in developing weapons of mass destruction - and crazy enough to let those bugs and toxins loose on the President of the United States. Can Bill Peterson, the FBI's lead agent on the case, stop this madman's plan to recreate the biblical plagues of Egypt and use them against the government? This exciting thriller plays out as a deadly cat and mouse game between an unhinged genius and the dedicated agent trying to catch the terrorist before he kills again. And then the stakes get higher for Peterson as the killer decides to come after the FBI agent and his family...

The convicted psychopath Robert Smithson has escaped from St. Elizabeths Hospital in Washington, D. C., and is again attempting to kill the current president. This time he surrounds himself with a crew of anti-government fanatics, and together they plan on releasing a bioweapon over Camp David in Maryland. Bill Peterson, the FBI agent who was Smithson's nemesis the first time the terrorist tried to attack the government (see the book SEVEN), is once more trying to stop Smithson before he can attack. Can Peterson capture Smithson before he kills again? Or will Smithson's drones succeed in wiping out the top echelon of the U. S. government? Smithson decides to turn his attention toward getting rid of the FBI agent who is getting too good at guessing the terrorist's next move. This is a cat and mouse game, but who is the cat, and who is the mouse? This exciting thriller, with non-stop action, will keep you awake all night

A collection of tales, essays, short stories, and poems about the land, wildlife, people, communities, and lore of the North Country of the Upper Midwest.

An African adventure like no other. At the start of the 20th century the British East Africa Protectorate is a beautiful but savage country. A veneer of civilization overlays a prehistoric land where a man stays alive "by dint of his courage, daring, cunning, and ferocity," and can make a fortune smuggling ivory, gold and slaves from the jungles of the Congo to the black markets in Zanzibar. Two American hunters, Kincaid and Gunner, are tossed back a hundred years in time and find themselves lost on East Africa's Athi Plain where mischance - or great good fortune - makes them masters of a smugglers' caravan on trek from the shores of Lake Victoria to the Uganda Railway at Nairobi, laden with 20,000 worth ($2.5 million) of illicit ivory, gold, and slaves. To free the seventy natives held as slaves, they must survive assaults by askari military police, Arab slavers from Oman, Kavirondo tribal warriors, hired thugs in the streets of Mombasa, a lion's mauling, and the mysterious wiles of a fierce and beautiful Baluba woman.
