Before he was considered a CIA
superagent, before he was thought of as a terrorist’s worst nightmare,
and before he was both loathed and admired by the politicians on Capitol
Hill, Mitch Rapp was a gifted college athlete without a care in the
world . . . and then tragedy struck.
What type of man is willing to
kill for his country without putting on a uniform? Kennedy finds him in
the wake of the Pan Am Lockerbie terrorist attack. Two-hundred and
seventy souls perished that cold December night, and thousands of family
and friends were left searching for comfort. Mitch Rapp was one of
them, but he was not interested in comfort. He wanted retribution.
Six months of intense training
has prepared him to bring the war to the enemy’s doorstep, and he does
so with brutal efficiency. Rapp starts in Istanbul, where he
assassinates the Turkish arms dealer who sold the explosives used in the
Pan Am attack. Rapp then moves onto Hamburg with his team and across
Europe, leaving a trail of bodies. All roads lead to Beirut, though, and
what Rapp doesn’t know is that the enemy is aware of his existence and
has prepared a trap. The hunter is about to become the hunted, and Rapp
will need every ounce of skill and cunning if he is to survive the
war-ravaged city and its various terrorist factions.

The first book in a new paranormal mystery series featuring Sadie Novak, a professional crime scene cleaner and amateur medium.
Sadie Novak's got the kind of job that kills cocktail chatter dead: she owns Scene-2-Clean a crime scene cleanup company. And if wiping up after murders weren't spooky enough, she can also see and talk to the ghosts of the victims...
When grieving relatives hire Sadie and her employee, ex-cop Zack Bowman, to clean up after the murder-suicide of Trudy and Grant Toth, Sadie figures she's bound to meet at least one chatty ghost. But Kent, the man Sadie first encounters at the scene, is very much alive--so much so, that Sadie soon finds herself agreeing to a date with him.
Then a real ghost shows up--the oddly silent spirit of Trudy, who seems determined to prove that her husband's innocence, and inspires Sadie to track down the real killer. But as she scours the crime scene, Sadie quickly realizes she's in way over her head, that Kent has a strange connection to the dead couple, and that someone wants her to give up the ghost...for good.
Grass Roots by Stuart Woods (Will Lee Series # 4)
Will Lee has returned to his roots to kick off his campaign for the Senate. A prominent lawyer, he has come back to his hometown of Delano, Georgia, to plan his strategies, and to argue an explosively controversial case that could seriously damage his fledgling political career. For Delano is a town with a dark secret -- a smoldering hotbed of racial hatred and moral outrage, held in the thrall of a sinister group called The Elect. Its violent, evil forces will stop at nothing to keep the candidate out of office.
But Will Lee isn't about to back down, even though it may cost him his career -- and his life.
Four presidents of the United States have been assassinated—in 1865, 1881, 1901, and 1963—each murder seemingly unrelated. But what if those presidents were all killed for the shocking same reason: a clause contained in the United States Constitution? This is the question faced by former Justice Department operative Cotton Malone.
When President Danny Daniels is nearly killed in the heart of Manhattan, Malone risks his life to foil the murder—only to find himself at odds with the Commonwealth, a secret society of pirates first assembled during the American Revolution. Racing across the nation and taking to the high seas, Malone and Cassiopeia Vitt must break a secret cipher originally possessed by Thomas Jefferson, unravel a mystery concocted by Andrew Jackson, and unearth a document forged by the Founding Fathers themselves—one powerful enough to make the Commonwealth unstoppable.
A disturbing tape has made its way to British intelligence, and from them to the new President of the United States: battlefield chatter from an ambush in Afghanistan, in which twelve U.S. Army Rangers and a British medical team died. Most of the Taliban voices are Afghan, but not all of them-the voice of the commander bears an Irish accent. The idea that one of their own could be responsible for such a massacre is appalling, and Sean Dillon is put in charge of hunting down the traitor.
But Dillon has his own way of doing things and, he will eventually discover, so does his quarry. Dillon will not only be going to war-the war will be coming to him.
