    Jesse McDermitt discovers an environmental nightmare of deception and greed taking place in Central America. A cartel is branching into smuggling things other than drugs. And they’re doing it quite effectively. 
    The Honduran rain forests and its inhabitants are at peril. The cartel needs hidden places to grow coca, used in the manufacture of cocaine. The exotic and endangered hardwood trees are cut and sold on the black market, along with any creature found dwelling deep in the humid jungle. 
    Environmental activists in the area who try to intercede are swiftly dealt with in the manner the cartel deals with anyone who stands between them and the almighty dollar—with a sharp machete. 
    Having so many moving parts and numerous smuggling routes, can Jesse and the crew of Ambrosia, on a dive vacation in the Bay Islands of Honduras, be able to make a difference? Or will the beautiful reef surrounding the island of Utila be Ambrosia’s grave?

    Peter Bannerman, veterinarian and amateur detective, deserves a summer vacation. Peter and his family head to a remote fishing lodge in northern Manitoba for a canoeing trip with his champion sniffer dog, Pippin. But a series of incidents color their plans. The lodge’s sled team of huskies has been poisoned and, at the same time, a floatplane crashes into the lake, killing the pilot and both passengers. While Peter works to save the huskies, it is discovered that the plane crash wasn’t an accident. It was murder.
    		 
    It’s been a hot and dry summer, and one morning the Bannerman family wakes up to find a forest fire spreading quickly. They manage to dodge the conflagration, making it back to the lodge before it becomes cut off from the outside world. Peter soon figures out that the murderer, who probably also poisoned the huskies, must be among the other guests or staff trapped with them at the lodge. The power fails. The now-enormous fire draws nearer. Can Peter discover the culprit in time?

    When the country falls, the hunt begins. 
    The United States has shattered. After a devastating trade war, fewer than twenty states remain. Power is fractured. Infrastructure is crumbling. And for most, survival means trading bullets and barter. 
    Lonn Peters, once a top detective in Honolulu, now scrapes by as a streetwise bounty hunter in the ruins of Hilo—guarding shops from gang rule, haunted by the badge he left behind. But when a mysterious job pulls him to the mainland, Lonn stumbles into a world far more dangerous than he imagined. 
    A fellow investigator has vanished. The authorities want it buried. Lonn wants answers. 
    What he uncovers could rip apart the fragile alliances still holding America together—and put a target on his back bigger than anything he’s faced before. 
    Corruption runs deep. Truth is a weapon. And in a nation on the brink, trust can kill you. 
    Perfect for fans of gritty dystopian thrillers, Mark of the Triad delivers relentless action, dark intrigue, and a protagonist who refuses to quit—no matter the cost. Buckle up. This ride doesn’t slow down.
