JUST ANNOUNCED!
COMING DECEMBER 9TH
Someone has murdered three prominent residents of Old Town Alexandria, Virginia including the wife of the city's sheriff. When the trail goes cold, the sheriff's son hires dismissed FBI agent, and now private investigator CJ Hawk, to look into the murder with fresh eyes. His investigation leads to the discovery something a lot more sinister. A secret government agency, code-named ZULU CENTER, has been spun up inside the State Department with a single mission; hide the identities of the nation's covert intelligence operatives and the military's special operators.
Technology is a double edged sword though. Nations are using fingerprints, retina scans, facial recognition software, and even DNA to not only monitor their own citizens, but people entering their countries from abroad. This is a challenge for the spooks and SEALs. So, ZULU CENTER has figured out a way to leverage that technology. Or have they? Often, when a new technology is developed by the deep state, what can go wrong eventually does. It's up to CJ Hawk and a small team of loyalists who want to be on the right side of history to solve the murders, prevent another, and expose the dark side of ZULU CENTER.
Inspired by the actual murders of three prominent Old Town Alexandria residents, ZULU CENTER will have you ripping through the pages right to the end.

The details on this are Top Secret for now. But it's going to be HOT🔥
This is Book 1, Department Echo, in my flagship CJ Hawk - FBI Thriller series with Zulu Center due to arrive in late 2024 or early 2025. Book 3 Washington Field will follow. Department Echo finds CJ Hawk as the first police officer on the scene when Dr. David Richards is assassinated answering the door to his Old Town, Alexandria townhouse late one night in 1984. Despite the fact his estranged spouse was seeking custody of their children who lived with him, there was little evidence, and the case went cold for years. By 1990 Hawk has joined the FBI and was in command of a SWAT team when a bank robbery takedown went tragically wrong resulting in the death of a fellow agent. He finds himself “removed from the rolls of the Bureau,” and working boring cases as a PI. Hawk is unexpectedly retained by a prominent attorney to solve the murder once and for all, although who the client is remains a mystery.
His investigation spirals in directions Hawk never saw coming. His sometimes girlfriend Kori West married a flawed attorney on the U.S. Senate Intelligence Committee. A sketchy K Street lobbying firm with ties to members of Congress and Iranian Intelligence is uncovered. Most challenging, Hawk trips into a rogue Department of Defense (DoD) intelligence office codenamed Department Echo that operates in the Black. Officially, it doesn’t exist - it’s off the books, and then these scenarios collide in a powerful ending that delivers justice for all that deserve it – except maybe Hawk.
Department Echo was inspired by an actual assassination of a prominent doctor in Old Town Alexandria in 1984, and many of the scenes and action come from the author’s experience during his more than thirty year career in law enforcement. Now available in eBook, paperback and Audiobook.
