Discover four pulse-pounding spy thrillers in one gripping collection:
Book 1: Deceptive Cadence
Ireland and India. Conor McBride vanishes into deep cover in pursuit of the one man who destroyed his life—his own brother. Following a trail of betrayal across continents, Conor must navigate shifting loyalties, treacherous allies, and a personal reckoning that threatens to consume him. In a world without rules, every truth has a price—and this time, the cost may be everything.
Book 2: The Secret Chord
Rural Vermont. Running from a mission that nearly killed him, Conor hides behind a false identity at a quiet farmhouse inn, seeking peace far from the world of spies. But Kate Fitzpatrick, the inn’s trusting owner, senses the danger he carries—and carries secrets of her own. When the past erupts with sudden, brutal force, their fragile sanctuary shatters, revealing that some secrets bind… and others are deadly.
Book 3: City of a Thousand Spies
Prague. A city of beauty, secrets…and watchers in every shadow. Drawn by the promise of reclaiming his music career, Conor McBride accepts what he’s told is a clean, simple mission—only to find himself entangled in a spiralling Iranian defection and the deadly schemes of a rogue MI6 operative. With a mysterious stranger on their trail and danger stalking every cobbled street, Conor and his determined partner Kate must survive a web of deception before Prague becomes their grave.
Book 4: Star of the East
Canadian borderlands. What begins as an unwanted engagement party escape turns lethal when Conor and Kate stumble across stolen treasure buried in bloodied snow. What should be a harmless pursuit soon mutates into a deadly chase up the frozen St. Lawrence Seaway, where folklore, smugglers, and killers collide. With a blizzard closing in and danger tightening its grip, Conor’s instincts warn him this is no simple mystery—and survival is far from guaranteed.
