  📐 Sewing pattern shop owner and vintage fashion enthusiast Dottie Seamstress is hosting a retro fashion workshop when the town's most demanding customer is found dead in her shop—smothered by a stack of rare 1950s pattern envelopes. The police suspect a tragic accident, but Dottie notices the patterns have been deliberately rearranged to form a coded message and the victim's final project contains fabric cuts that don't match any known design. With her shop's reputation hanging by a thread and the sewing community in an uproar, Dottie must measure up as an investigator. Assisted by her vintage sewing group and the handsome textile archivist documenting local fashion history, Dottie uncovers a scheme involving pattern forgery, stolen vintage designs, and a black market for rare sewing blueprints. From suspicious cutting lines that reveal unauthorized alterations to tissue paper that doesn't match the era, every pattern tells a story. But when Dottie discovers the victim was blackmailing designers about their stolen patterns and copyright infringements, she realizes the killer is protecting a fashion empire built on stolen ideas. With the annual Vintage Fashion Show approaching and the real culprit still cutting corners, Dottie must piece together this patchwork of deception before her own pattern gets permanently discontinued.

  In this clever reimagining of a classic tale, it's up to Captain Hook to rescue his crew, escape the strange island, and stop that spoiled blood-thirsty brat Peter! 
  “A masterpiece of horror, action, suspense, and high seas pirate ship battles.” JOE DAVISON, Stranger Things 
  Considered a buffoon by fellow pirates, Captain James Hook is determined to avoid the gallows by leading his crew to an uncharted and mythical island. The deal was supposed to be simple: pretend to be sailors, deliver the goods, and collect payment from a mysterious client. 
  But now they're on the run from a century-old vampire who looks no more than fourteen and his fang-toothed Lost Boys are hot on their trail. A voodoo priestess, zombies, and cannibalistic mermaids patrol the coast, and all are prepared to use their dark magic to keep James Hook and his crew from escaping alive. 
  The Captain may just be the only one who can finally end Peter's reign of violent playtime and bloodshed. The future of America, and possibly the world, rests in the hands of the Mighty Hook!

Uncovering the truth will reveal a story of secret identities, forbidden love and revenge, where nothing is as it appears.

  “Thriller writing at its best. Thriller enthusiasts who relish the precise execution of an international thriller, but who seek the psychological depth and believability of a protagonist who simultaneously fields professional and personal life challenges, will find this a gripping story that's hard to put down.”
  --Midwest Book Review, Diane Donovan (regarding Any Means Necessary)
  
  “One of the best thrillers I have read this year. The plot is intelligent and will keep you hooked from the beginning. The author did a superb job creating a set of characters who are fully developed and very much enjoyable. I can hardly wait for the sequel.”
  --Books and Movie Reviews, Roberto Mattos (re Any Means Necessary)
  
  From #1 bestselling and USA Today bestselling author Jack Mars, author of the critically-acclaimed Luke Stone and Agent Zero series (with over 5,000 five-star reviews), comes an explosive new, action-packed thriller series that takes readers on a wild-ride across Europe, America, and the world.
  
  When elite Navy Seal Troy Stark is forced into retirement for his dubious respect for authority, he dreads the quiet life awaiting him with his brothers and buddies in Yonkers, New York. But the quiet doesn’t last long: the NYPD needs Troy’s military expertise to help find and stop a major terrorist threat to New York City. To pre-empt the attack, they need him to fly to Europe and stop it at its source—using any means necessary.
  
  Troy finds himself partnered with an Interpol agent who is as different from him as can be, and their instant dislike is mutual. But they have an attack to stop, and only a few days to do it, and together they’ll need each other as they criss-cross Europe in a high-octane cat-and-mouse chase to shut these terrorists down.
  
  But what starts off as a straightforward mission (and an opportunity to clear his name) soon catapults Troy headfirst into a global conspiracy. These criminals are more sophisticated than they appear, and even with Troy’s unparalleled military skills, he and his team find themselves constantly one stop behind. With the fate of New York City on the line, the stakes couldn’t be higher. 
  
  Where will they strike? And when? And can Troy stop it before it’s too late?
  
  An unputdownable action thriller with heart-pounding suspense and unforeseen twists, ROGUE FORCE is the debut novel in an exhilarating new series by a #1 bestselling author that will have you fall in love with a brand new action hero—and turn pages late into the night.
  
  Books #2 and #3 in the series—ROGUE COMMAND and ROGUE TARGET—are now also available.
