led by a man thought long dead, mastermind of a plot that could touch off World War III.
In The Red Wolf, it's five years later. Jo is now executive officer of a secret special ops unit, Pallas Group, and her first mission is to lead a team behind the Iron Curtain to prevent the assassination of Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev by a rogue KGB agent. Cut off from U.S. support, hunted by Soviet and Hungarian agents, Jo has to find and then defeat the most dangerous man she has ever faced, with the fate of the Cold War hanging in the balance.
The Bronze Leopard finds Jo in East Africa, and after wrapping up a mission, she and a colleague set out to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro before returning home. She doesn’t know that the rebel leader she captured, an East German soldier determined to revive his grandfather’s dream of a German empire in Africa, has been freed from prison by GDR mercenaries. Now, the Bronze Leopard himself, backed by a team of elite East German troops, is determined to track the Vixen up the mountain and eliminate the biggest threat to the mercenaries’ future operations. Pursued to the top of Africa, outgunned and weakened by the extreme altitude, Jo Geary faces the fight of her life against a desperate foe in one of the harshest environments on the planet.

October 1990. A mysterious object is seen floating eastward over Alaska, resembling a
silver falcon of Tlingit legend. Air Force radar can't see it. Fighter jets scramble to intercept the
object, but all the pilots can do is watch it cruise across the border into Canada, where it
comes down in a remote part of the Yukon Territory.
USAF special operator Jo Ann Geary, the White Vixen, is dispatched to Dawson City to assist
Canadian Rangers in the search for the object in the Cloudy Range of Tombstone Territorial Park.
They've barely started their hike when all radio comms with Ottawa and Washington go dead,
but not before Jo is told about an unidentified aircraft dropping paratroopers north of the
target's last known location. Who are they, and why do they want the Falcon?
As the weather deteriorates, Jo and the Canadian intelligence agent in command of the
mission worry that the Rangers will be outnumbered and outgunned if they encounter the
airborne troops, who are almost certainly Russians. At the White House, the president is told
that the Falcon's technology, whether man-made or extra-terrestrial, could be so important
that the invaders might possibly call in a nuclear strike from an offshore submarine if they're unable to keep the Falcon away from the allied force.
Thrust into the midst of indigenous Rangers who don't really trust her, unable to get help from Washington or Ottawa, and facing an enemy force that could be desperate enough to risk war, the Vixen must call on all her skills to survive and prevent the Falcon, whatever it is, from touching off a nuclear cataclysm.
The Heights of Valor – Jake Dawson gave up an All-American wrestling career
in college to become an Army Special Forces soldier like his grandfather Dennis,

man since then has answered his country’s call, and their inspiring letters are in
the diary. Now it’s Jake’s turn. But on his long trek to the Green Beret, with the
weight of his family legacy growing, Jake’s valor on the battlefield can’t overcome
the tragedies of comrades lost and the bitter taste of enemies escaping justice.
Finally, with his goal in sight, Jake faces his greatest challenge yet, and he’ll need
his Rough Rider ancestor’s help to meet it.

Trying to stay above the fray, he focuses his attention on Beth, a divorcee whose teenage daughter, Emily, is a budding volleyball star.
