  A dead file should have stayed buried. 
   
  Years after a covert operation destroyed his career and reduced his life to something smaller and quieter, former officer under non-official cover Paul Andrews is pulled back in by one impossible detail: a sealed commercial claims file tied to the operation that broke him has been reopened, and inside it is a handwritten correction from a man who should be dead. 
   
  That means one piece of the past survived. 
   
  Now Paul is back in the same cold terrain he once used as cover, ports, claims records, warehouses, customs trails, and the practical lies hidden inside ordinary commerce. But this time he is not just chasing a buried seam. He is racing a hidden review machine inside HQ known as Black Desk, the off-books mechanism that decides what survives compromised operations and who gets turned into order before the truth can surface. 
   
  As the file opens into something larger, Paul is forced to work with Anna Calder, the forensic reconstruction specialist he once cut out of his life when the walls first started closing in. She reads damage. He reads pressure. Together they begin to uncover a pattern Black Desk should have erased years ago. 
   
  Compromised is a cold, modern espionage thriller about buried tradecraft, institutional betrayal, and the danger of being pulled back into your own file.

  The fabulous Oregon coast is a scenic getaway to behold, but for a gay, autistic travel writer and amateur sleuth, there is no such thing as a vacation from murder… Though sparks flew between travel writer Oliver Popp and extroverted photographer Ricky Warner on their last assignment together, when they're teamed up again for a road trip, they agree to keep things low-key. But that's a little at odds with Oliver's new assignment: finding romance on the Oregon coast. The destination is a picturesque inn overlooking the Pacific. With the crashing waves below, it seems like an ideal spot for dramatic love connections. Curiously, the other guests are innkeeper Mary Alice's large extended family, headed by a fabulously wealthy aunt, with various children, in-laws, husbands and wives, all vying to stay in her good graces...and her will. Then on the first night, settling into their room, Oliver and Ricky make an unsettling discovery: a dead man in their hot tub—one of Mary Alice’s tragically unlucky relatives who, from the looks of it, dropped in from the balcony above. The sheriff concludes it was an accident. Considering the circumstances of this odd family reunion, Oliver and Ricky have doubts. When another body turns up, the vibes on what was supposed to be a relaxing getaway take an absolutely sinister turn. As family secrets, old grudges, and greedy motives come to light, Oliver’s sleuthing side is coming out. Who’s the next heir in line to die? As the suspects pile up, Oliver is certain of only one thing: it’s no mystery that murder is bringing him and Ricky closer together…
