The End Time Saga
Book 1: End Time
Book 2: The Breaking
Former Counterterrorism agent Mark Steele and his fellow survivors have been bushwhacked in the West Virginia hills. Steele must find a way out to save his people.
In a desperate gamble to stop the virus, retired Air Force Colonel Michael Kinnick has been entrusted with finding Dr. Joseph Jackowski who’s gone missing in West Virginia. Kinnick’s depleted unit of Special Forces soldiers are to the breaking point as the dead assault them at every step.
The hunt for Patient Zero is on…
Book 3: The RISING
With every fleeting moment, the whole world draws closer to being overcome by the deadliest virus known to man.
Steele’s family home lies in burnt ruins on the shore of Lake Michigan. In its place he finds a group of refugees badly in need of his skills learned in the shadow war on terror, for they are persecuted at every step by the Chosen, a group of fanatics hell-bent on creating God’s Kingdom in the rubble of society.
Dr. Joseph Jackowski finds himself in a dangerous battle against both the deadly virus and the clock inside the bowels of the Cheyenne Mountain Complex. His team struggles as their own members fall victim to the virus in a race to discover a vaccine.
Colonel Kinnick rushes his paltry forces into the rocky passes of Colorado to hold the dead off long enough for a vaccine to be found. If he fails, the Vice President will burn the entire Western Seaboard into the blazing inferno of a nuclear holocaust.
Who will rise? The Living or the Dead?
Book 4: The Departing
Steele and his followers retreat before the might of Colonel Jackson’s rogue military unit in their apocalyptic war. He must find a way to outlast his opponent while holding his loose confederation of allies and former enemies together or face certain annihilation.
Back in her small hometown of Hacklebarney, Iowa, Gwen struggles to convince her cautious neighbors to provide refuge for Steele’s haggard forces. If she doesn’t succeed, Jackson’s noose will tighten and her friends and loved ones will be crushed on the banks of the Mississippi River.
The remaining loyal United States military implements a daring plan to hold the nation’s eastern flank against the dead. Operation Homefront hinges on the successful training of the civilian population for war. Colonel Kinnick quickly finds that not everyone wants their help.
The dead and the living alike march in a struggle for the ashes of a nation. Like a game of chess, every move dictates who will live and who will die.
Book 5: The Holding
The seeds of mutiny are growing…
The northernmost outpost of the eastern flank has gone dark. Captain Steele and the commanders of Operation Homefront shift forces north to find out what happened to the Marines stationed there.
But, all is not right at Camp Forge.
An outbreak of debilitating illness ravages through the base, forcing Gwen on a journey through Iowa to find medicine to treat the sick, including her niece.
Meanwhile, the tension is building between the various factions holding the line against the dead.
The dead are gathering across the Mississippi River, waiting for their chance to overrun the thin, divided front and finish off the battered remains of America.
Can Steele and Gwen survive the coming storm? Or is their fate falling with the winter snow?
