All the king's horses and all the king's men could not put Bulimia together again.
Famine ravages war-torn, anarchic Bulimia. International humanitarian organizations want to help, but the country’s rival gangs and militias have brought aid to a halt, targeting relief operations with violence and extortion while tens of thousands starve. Resolute action to secure humanitarian operations is needed, and the United States decides to take the lead. Yet good intentions are no match for cynical political calculations, interagency rivalries, bureaucratic ambitions and escalating incompetence. Humanitarian volunteers, diplomats, military personnel and a beleaguered Department of Sta | |  | | Clean Coal Killers
Richard Paladin returns with a new boss and a new assignment, tracking terrorists threatening a power plant in Pennsylvania. What he finds, though, is...well, read the book!
When terrorists threaten the U.S. power grid, it's time to send in Richard Paladin, America's top Environmental Protection Agent. At least, that's how Paladin's new boss, Frank, describes the assignment. But when Paladin starts digging through the personnel files at a Pennsylvania coal-fired power plant, he finds a lot more than the EPA bargained for—like a partner who's not playing straight with him, a security guard who appears more spook than goon, a stripper who's a little too interested in him, and an old flame he knows is a professional agent. And even though someone really is leaking se | |  | | Killer Protocols
This edgy, first-person narrative introduces Richard Paladin, staff employee of an Environmental Protection Agency lethal program. Follow Paladin through the twists and turns of a few assignments to a surprising ending.
Richard Paladin works in the shadows eliminating terrorists, spies, and just general riff-raff who threaten the security of the United States. At least, he assumed that's who he'd be killing when he was hired into a secret department of the Environmental Protection Agency. But when one of his "clients" turns out to be a seemingly harmless Missouri housewife, then he's ordered to eliminate the owner of the local northern Virginia bar he frequents, he starts to ask himself a few questions-like what any of this has to do with the U.S. Government's reluctance to sign the Kyoto Protocol. Still, if | |  | | Sudden Addiction: A Short Story
The story of a man turned into a societal pariah overnight.
“Evan woke up craving a cigarette.” Thus begins Sudden Addiction, the story of a man turned into a societal pariah overnight. His new status leaves him alienated in a hostile world, cut off from work and neighbors, uninterested in food, frantic only to satisfy his new compulsion. | |  | | The Killer Trees
Richard Paladin faces down terrorist tree-huggers in the land of micro-brews. There's even a ghost in the mix.
Richard Paladin returns and faces his toughest assignment to date. A logging company's employees have been turning up mysteriously dead, threatening a lucrative contract to fell a national forest in Oregon. The company's CEO has turned to an old friend, the President of the United States, for help, and that means sending in Paladin, America's top Environmental Protection Agent. Rather than terrorist tree-huggers, however, he finds himself in deadly combat with an adversary who displays all the talents of a professional killer. To make matters worse, there seems to be a ghost haunting the fo |
