Summary

Louisiana State Police Detective "Cadillac" Holland is asked to help investigate a series of arson fires, but what he uncovers is a dark conspiracy meant to provoke a gang war as New Orleans enters a crucial local election, Mardi Gras, and the city's football team's first trip to the Super Bowl. The menace this poses is compounded by the discovery that it is being orchestrated by a corrupt government contractor on behalf of a Homeland Security official sworn to protect the nation from just this sort of thing. Worse yet, the man running the contractor's operation nearly got Detective Holland killed while working for the same company on a classified operation in Iraq; a mission he has gone to great lengths to keep his friends and family from knowing the details about. The detective must put his life at risk to derail the phony gang war and protect his city, his family, and his secrets.

    THE PROTECTORS: Though they work independently and at times are oceans apart, their ties to each other remain strong. They’re related by blood or bond – this group of men and women in law enforcement, government intelligence, and the military who do what others cannot to serve, defend, and protect. IMPOSTER: The Protectors Series - Book One. Chemist Dr. Eve Collins, wrongly accused by the CIA of developing and marketing a chemical weapon, learns she has been set up as a scapegoat by someone seeking to hide his own guilt. That “someone” wants her dead. Her life depends on making no mistakes – like trusting the Central Intelligence agent assigned to her case, a man she’s falling in love with. CIA Operative John Burke doesn't believe her claim of innocence. When an attempt is made on her life, he believes her accomplice has turned on her. But something doesn't add up about Eve and her role in this crime she's accused of. Burke has too many questions, including - has his judgment been compromised by his fierce attraction to her? It’s a question Burke asks himself again and again but when he learns Eve’s would-be assassin is close, he goes on the run with her. It's a temporary solution - running will not keep her safe. Burke must find the assassin - or die trying.
