The Matthew Bayan Collection

In the depths of the French and Indian War, as the greed of French and English kings ravages colonial America, young Pennsylvania woodsman, Connor Hode, must navigate the chaos of war. Morality or obedience to King George? Sedition or justice? A wrong choice may get him killed as Britain lights the fuse that will explode 20 years later in 1776.

From the past comes a danger that can destroy the future.

In Egyptian ruins Dr. James Fleming finds something inexplicable. Something that can change civilization.

Unscrupulous men want the artifact…by whatever means.

To discover its secret, Fleming triggers the device. And pays a harsh price that will likely cost him his life.

Or his sanity.

Set in 1965, The Firecracker King depicts a quiet lakeside neighborhood shocked by the brutal murder of a teenage girl. Young Jake Johnson’s idealism is battered by hatred and betrayal as he tries to survive in a dangerous adult world to find the killer. Part mystery, part thriller, THE FIRECRACKER KING builds pace to a breakneck ending.

The irrepressible Jake Johnson from the bestselling THE FIRECRACKER KING is back with a new mystery and a new challenge. After meeting a strange old hermit deep in the woods, Jake’s imagination starts firing on all cylinders and he embarks on a treasure hunt. The prize? A million dollars in US Gold Certificates lost by bootleggers in 1925.

How safe is your life? Ever feel you’re being watched, even though you see nobody near. You slough it off as foolish fear. But maybe it’s true. Maybe you’ve drawn the attention of a murder machine who sees you only as a string of zeroes to add to his wealth.
He’ll take everything you own.

Then give you a choice: Life or Death.

Choose Death
