    Book 1: From a Dead Sleep - There are times when the truth invites evil, and there are times when the truth can get you killed. Book 2: Blood Trade - Sometimes blood is thicker than life. Book 3: Broken Slate - Be careful the legacy you wish for.“John Daly has a magical writing style, and his books keep you up late at night turning pages... You won’t want to put it down.”— Dana Perino, former White House Press Secretary / co-host of The Five“…I’ve become persuaded that nobody today tells a story quite like John A. Daly. From the very moment you pick one [of his books] up, it takes all the willpower you can muster just to put it down.”— Bob Burg, bestselling co-author of the ‘Go-Giver’ series"For a self-described ‘rent-a-cop security guard,’ Sean Coleman is a particularly human and relatable hero – plenty of flaws and rough around the edges, but heroic for the way he carries on, despite all the baggage of his mistakes and hard lessons learned. I think what impresses me the most about John Daly as a writer is his range."— Jim Geraghty, National Review; author of the Dangerous Clique thriller series
