The Influencer

Nick Lynch · Book Two

Someone has learned how to manufacture devotion—and how to turn followers into weapons. When a charismatic movement starts leaving bodies in its wake, Nick follows the money and the message into a conspiracy far larger and colder than a single madman. The deeper he digs, the clearer it becomes that the person pulling the strings has only just begun.

Do What We Say

Nick Lynch · Book Three · featuring Jenny McFadden

The network behind the killings has a master, a doctrine, and a generation of children raised to serve it. As the threat goes national, Nick hunts it from the field while Jenny McFadden—the woman he loves, and a rising force in national politics—fights it from the corridors of power. Power changes hands, lines are crossed, and nothing about the war ahead will be clean.

Sniper

Nick Lynch · Book Four · featuring Jenny McFadden

Across nine days, the country is paralyzed by gunfire it cannot predict and cannot stop. The targets seem random, the shooter a ghost, and the man being blamed may be the one person who is innocent. Nick races to untangle who is really pulling the trigger, while Jenny confronts the same chaos from the highest levels of government—before the body count rewrites the nation's politics, and before the wrong person pays for it all.

Bonnie & Clyde

Nick Lynch · Book Seven · featuring Jenny McFadden

A young couple is carving a trail of blood across the country, and the legend they are building is exactly what they want you to see. Nothing about the case is what it appears—not the killers, not their motive, not who is really running the show. Nick chases a moving target through a maze of decoys, with President Jenny McFadden and the full weight of Washington behind him, toward a revelation that changes everything and sets the stage for what comes next.

Runner

Nick Lynch · Book Eight · featuring Jenny McFadden

Thirty-seven people are taken in a single hour, out of nine different states. Every one of them grew up in the same program, in bunkers nobody knew held children, given numbers instead of names. They came for thirty-eight. One got away, and she has spent the last six months in Atlanta building the first ordinary life she has ever had. Nick Lynch runs the task force. President Jenny McFadden has weeks left in office. Neither of them knows yet what the thirty-seven were taken for.
