Fort Black Thriller

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.

Battered. Wounded. Former Special Agent Kade Black isn't about to give up on the quest to prove his innocence. The trail leads him to the unforgiving deserts of Nevada. A harsh landscape where only the toughest survive.

Kade's search for justice meets the storm of the century. Snowed in at a campground in the isolated community of Three Rivers, he's no longer a wanted man just another trapped tourist. He does his best to help. Tries to fit in. Even finds a welcome place to rest his head. But he's not the only stranger in town. Along the dangerous road known as Mineral King lies a fortress-like hacienda. A recent purchase by a man tied inextricably to Kade's past. A ruthless cartel warlord who's got a plan to take over the unincorporated town and turn it into his personal fiefdom.

Former special agent Kade Black knows his adversaries well. He's shadowed terrorists, spies, and mafia bosses. But he's never had to confront all three at once. Kade's latest clue has him watching a new dead drop serviced by the late GRU operative, Sergei. But this drop is inactive. No sign of use.

A stolen shipment of military hardware. A Russian mercenary group operating on American soil. Compromised nuclear launch codes. But whose finger is on the trigger? Kade's got little time to piece together the mystery inherited from his former Russian asset. But as he recuperates from his injuries, he soon discovers he's the one who has been assigned a handler.

Lured back to his boyhood Montana home, Kade's trip down memory lane isn't all fresh asphalt and sunny skies. Someone's been busy around Fort Black. The Storm Z is rallying—the international mercenary group known for their Russian ties is now a rogue element with access to compromised nuclear codes. All signs indicate an imminent launch. Then there are the shadowy criminal links to a secretive cabal. Mob ties. Cartel funding.
