After the killing of Osama Bin Laden, CIA deep cover officer Mitch Vasari assumed there would be a couple months of peace on the foreign front. It turns out he was mistaken. President Obama, on a roll after the successful-and historic-terrorist assassination, has repealed an executive order that bans further political assassinations. This means Vasari is on call and ready for action. The CIA's objective is to go after foreign heads of state who, for reasons unknown to Vasari, represent threats to American freedom and safety. The assassinations seem easy to plan and undertake, especially with Vasari's skillful team at the helm. They even have a new female agent, Gabriela Rivera Torres, who may be as lethal as Vasari himself. What could possibly go wrong? Apparently, more than they bargained for. Vasari gets the feeling the higher-ups haven't told him everything he needs to know. What are the president's reasons for going after these particular foreign heads of state? Is there something about these men that makes them more dangerous than other world leaders? Are they, perhaps, working as a team to destroy the United States? Vasari has to carry out his mission and keep his team safe, all while trying to find out the truth for himself. It's just another day's work for a CIA officer.
Set in the Old West in the 1870s, The Denton Mare is about the fabled Texan outlaw Sam Bass. Sam led a colorful and exciting life, the stuff legends are made of. He held a daring train robbery in 1877 and stayed one step ahead of the law until, betrayed by one of his gang, it finally caught up with him.

Thirty-seven-year-old Mitch Vasari is a deep cover ops officer in the CIA's Counterterrorist Center, dedicated to his role in America's war on terror. And he certainly has his work cut out for him: a group of Islamic terrorists is intent on waging their war of jihad against two targets of significance-a nuclear waste processing facility in northwestern England and Washington, DC's Dulles International Airport. The mastermind of the plots is radical Islamic fundamentalist Dr. Abdul-Karim bin Ahmad, a Pakistani physician working at a hospital in Scotland. Caught in the middle is Patrick Cahill, an Irish national and Dr. bin Ahmad's accomplice...who also happens to be deep undercover for Mitch and the Agency. The men circle in a deadly dance of violence and deception, as the clock ticks steadily toward a cataclysmic devastation. The Wave of the Future is a provocative thriller, offering a rare insider's glimpse into how the CIA manages their operations and engages terrorist targets.
