In a world where no one can be trusted and no one is safe, spies are everywhere. In the kitchen of the small house on the corner. High above a city at the top of a skyscraper under construction. In the checkout line at the local grocery. People with skills unheard of by most normal citizens living normal every day lives as accountants, teachers, plumbers, and more. Every day existence is their only battle...until a lone voice on the other end of the phone or in the static of a radio or even whispering in their ear from over their shoulder welcomes back to the war. Their own personal codename followed by one word - GEMINI. And then the housewife, the normal joe, Mr. and Mrs. America become the deadliest espionage agents this country has ever created, members of the top secret initiative known by very few as COVERT OPS: GEMINI Pro Se Productions, concept creator Tommy Hancock, and authors J. Walt Layne, Wesley Smith, and Tim Lasiuta proudly presents COVERT OPS: GEMINI. In the tradition of Mission: Impossible, COVERT OPS: GEMINI delves into the world of international espionage and looks at the men and women who make up the deadliest team of spies ever. Led by Steven Graves, roguish and calculating agent, and overseen by the mysterious Officer James, members of Covert Ops; Gemini live regular lives, hold down normal jobs, build families and careers, until they are needed. Then they step away from their desks, their aprons, their very existences and put skills outside of their normal persona into use as they were trained to. What follows for them may be failure or even death. But, if they succeed, not only does the world go on, but they get the one thing back they value most- their covers. Classic Spy Fiction at its best. COVERT OPS: GEMINI from Pro Se Productions

News For All, Justice for the Innocent and Weak That is the Masthead of The Partisan and the mission of its keepers in Pro Se Productions' action packed tribute to the printed press- NEWSHOUNDS Dogged reporters, crusty editors, copyboys and cub photographers with dreams of grandeur. Pressmen who know the city lives and breathes by what they print. Characters like Editor 'Red Dillinger, reporters Viv Bailey and Ted Boland, photographer Margie Haviland, and more all work for The Partisan, a 1950s paper partial to the common man, to righting the wrongs done against the housewives and the blue collars And this gaggle of hard bitten, hard fighting men and women are known near and far to those who love them and those who wish to see them dead Do No Wrong in Their City unless you want it covered by the Newshounds Started in 1930 to stand up for the little person and to protect the rights of the rightless. The Partisan has always been the paper that focused on both accurate news reporting and standing up for the common citizen against crime and corruption of all types. This led to a style of writing both factual and fiery that the paper is known for. Authors Kevin Paul Shaw Broden, Shannon Muir, and J. Walt Layne bring life to the chaotic adventures of a larger than life newspaper staff in this three story collection. Only two types of people work at The Partisan- Those truly interested in standing up for truth and justice and what's right...and those with a death wish or nowhere else to go. Either way, they make great stories for Pro Se Productions' NEWSHOUNDS

Welcome To Champion City. A megatropolis it isn't. But you couldn't arrive at that conclusion by looking at the police blotter. Most everyone in the city would tell you that a day in Champion City is a like...A WEEK IN HELL Pro Se Productions introduces the first volume of the Champion City Series of Digest Novels by author J. Walt Layne A WEEK IN HELL It all starts with a girl and a bag of cash. Candi was the kind of gal who could give a guy indigestion. She was poison, with looks to kill, a reluctant moll looking for a way out. Thurman was a young flatfoot, not necessarily the knight in shining armor. He went to shake out a brawl and nearly fed her his gun, was it any wonder he got a date? They spend an evening on the run, but where does it lead? Just when it looks like it's over, BOOM Is it a dead girl, a bag of somebody else's dough, or both? Written in the style of slang ridden, bullet riddled classic crime Pulp and mystery fiction, Layne's A WEEK IN HELL drops the reader square into all the corruption and corrosion of human spirit that is Champion City. Dames, gats, gumshoes, and brass cupcakes die, shoot, run, and glitter from every page. A WEEK IN HELL by J. Walt Layne, courtesy of Pro Se Productions With a stunning cover by Terry Pavlet, format and print design by Sean Ali and Ebook Design by Russ Anderson
