Deep Black Sea
“Science fiction at its best, a realistic tale of exploration and danger, written by a man who knows the details of deep-sea exploration firsthand.” —Ben Bova, Hugo Award-wining author With a crew of seven, the Challenger sea lab submerges three miles below the waves for a one-year mission to study the hidden world of the deep black sea. How is it that sea animals can live and reproduce in water that should boil them on the thermal vents known as “black smokers?” Superheated water that is full of toxins and heavy metals and contains almost no oxygen should be void of life on planet Earth—and yet it is teeming with it. The answer to the puzzle lies in the bacteria. Researcher Ted ...
The MOP
When things get messy, the Director of CIA knows he can send in The MOP to clean things up. After waves of terrorist strikes on U.S. soil take their toll, the CIA is forced to "take out The MOP." They’re no choir boys—but they’re kind of men you want on your side. Breaking too many laws to count, the secret agents and special operators of The MOP race against the clock to prevent yet another attack—if it’s successful, it will cripple the world economy. As incursions happen all over the country, the FBI and CIA try desperately to catch up to the Army of Islam before it can carry out the next offensive. Omar bin-Abdul Haq won’t be satisfied until the U.S. is in ruins and his idea of the New World Order comes to fruition. His idea of Sharia law is the harshest yet, fueling his sociopathic visions. The MOP Team has little to go on, and too much to lose—a dangerous combination that requires their very, very special set of skills.
Into the Jungle
The fast-paced sequel to The Team will keep you on the edge of your seat! When a small army is needed for a covert operation, the President calls on The Team—a very special ensemble of Marines, Rangers, SEALs and CIA operatives who make up one of the most lethal fighting forces in the US arsenal. Enrique Antonio Vega runs one of the largest cocaine cartels in South America, deep in the rain forest of the tri-border region. With a tribe of cannibalistic Guarani natives as his personal army, he operates with impunity—that is, until he takes part in the murder of the U.S. Ambassador. Having just returned from the Middle East where they foiled two large-scale terror attacks, The Team is retooled and sent to the jungle of the tri-border region. Their journey to the lair of Enrique Vega is perilous at every turn, and such is the wild ride of Into The Jungle: The Team Book Two.
Necessary Extremes
Known across Iran as a violent and powerful Mullah, Bijon Mujaharov is in fact a spy for the CIA. With his hateful speeches, he has won the respect of Iran’s leaders—and has gained access to their secrets. Now he has learned a devastating fact: Iran has weapons grade nuclear material—and Israel is their most likely target. In order to prevent World War III, the CIA must take action from within. Agents Stills and Mackey are sent in to aid Bijon. But the mission is not merely to take out the nukes. They plan to incite an Iranian revolution…
Crescent Fire
The enemy is powerful. Al Qaeda, Hamas and other Islamic terrorist groups have joined forces under a maniacal new leader, Fadi Wazeeri. The plan is simple. With a Scud missile launcher hidden inside an oil tanker, Wazeeri can get a nuclear weapon well within range of the White House. And the time to strike is soon. The odds are astronomical. Agents Still and Hollahan are on a special assignment—one that technically does not exist. They have little more than the name of the mysterious terrorist mission: Crescent Fire. Good thing these boys know how to work under pressure. . . .
Battle Scars
Marine Corporal Sean Nichols is wounded in a devastating ambush that takes the lives of his three friends and leaves him an amputee. If not for the heroism of his sergeant, Deke Tilman, who pulled him out of the road, Sean would have surely died with his fire team. With the help of Deke, Sean now embarks on his next mission-recuperate from his serious injuries, and visit the families of his fallen comrades as he tries to make peace with such profound loss. Battle Scars is a thought provoking drama with compelling characters that illustrates the resiliency and strength of the human spirit, the power of love and friendship, and the ability to overcome even our darkest moments. Gritty realism a...
Forever Hunger
When NYPD Sergeant Roy Ruiz began working the serial killings with Detective Tim Rosetto, they had no way of knowing the killer whom they were hunting had been dead for over two hundred years. The grisly crime scenes leave plenty of forensic evidence, but unfortunately, none of it makes any sense-unless you can open your mind to some very strange possibilities. FBI Special Agent Doug Patmore, whose special unit works with Missing Persons, Unsolved Violent Crimes, Homicide, and Sexual Assaults has been hunting this killer for years. Together with Roy and Tim, they begin their mind bending investigation that will lead them to Adam Priest-a man that's been killing and eating women since 1806. Adam was a lowly Prussian soldier when he was attacked in the woods after the battle of Jena, and the attack changed him forever. It killed the man and created a monster with a hunger for blood that was insatiable. For two hundred years, Adam fed without remorse-until he met Sara. Now, with an emotion almost human tugging at his dead heart, he must decide what to do about Sara as the police get closer with each feeding.

Democracy’s Discontent
A renowned political philosopher updates his classic book on the American political tradition to address the perils democracy confronts today. The 1990s were a heady time. The Cold War had ended, and America’s version of liberal capitalism seemed triumphant. And yet, amid the peace and prosperity, anxieties about the project of self-government could be glimpsed beneath the surface. So argued Michael Sandel, in his influential and widely debated book Democracy’s Discontent, published in 1996. The market faith was eroding the common life. A rising sense of disempowerment was likely to provoke backlash, he wrote, from those who would “shore up borders, harden the distinction between insid...
Mere Civility
A New Statesman Best Book of the Year A Church Times Book of the Year We are facing a crisis of civility, a war of words polluting our public sphere. In liberal democracies committed to tolerating active, often heated disagreement, the loss of this virtue appears critical. Most modern appeals to civility follow arguments by Hobbes or Locke by proposing to suppress disagreement or exclude views we deem “uncivil” for the sake of social harmony. By comparison, mere civility—a grudging conformity to norms of respectful behavior—as defended by Rhode Island’s founder, Roger Williams, might seem minimal and unappealing. Yet Teresa Bejan argues that Williams’s outlook offers a promising ...
