New Cover!
Here is the cover for the new Vol. 2, Smoking Bolts (formerly the first half of Sanctum Threat, which now becomes the new Vol. 3). This breaks it up, making it more readable for the target audience, keeping the word-count closer to Trident's Flame (Vol. 1).
A "smoking bolt" job is trade language for a theft of such skill that all the authorities or owners discover when they arrive at the scene are the smoking bolts. The Naval Postgraduate School theft of the cutting-edge EMP Cannon and the Top-Secret plans for the newest Navy submarine was certainly a smoking bolt operation.
The remaining books in the series will be as follows:
Vol. 3, Sanctum Threat (the last half of the original title)
Vol. 4, Pulse Blast (the first half of the original Choke Point)
Vol. 5, Choke Point (the last half of the original title)
Vol. 6, Fatal Kiss (the first half of the original Force Multiplier)
Vol. 7, Force Multiplier (the last half of the original)
Vol. 8, Escape Velocity (being written right now)
Vol. 9, Bloody Huntress (being written right now)
Vol. 10, Cleared Hot (forthcoming, 2018 est.)
Vol. 11, Bone Breaker (forthcoming, 2019 est.)
Vol. 12, Depth Charge (forthcoming, 2019 est.)
If I write any after these, it will be part of the Praetorian Series, a brief set that follows Jake Sloan in his adult years.
