The War Planners – War Planners Book 1

“Deep in the heart of China, a shadowy billionaire has begun plans to attack America. But after the CIA catches wind of the plot, an elite American team is called into action. Technologist David Manning is one of those summoned for the unscheduled activation of the joint CIA-DoD Red Cell.

He hasn’t been told why.  David must say goodbye to his family and fly half-way around the world on an unmarked government jet. Lena Chou, the charismatic CIA operative in charge of the Red Cell, is already waiting for him there, on the secretive island base. Other experts arrive soon after. Military officers. Intelligence analysts. Defense contractors. A couple dozen of them in all.

Lena tells them the secret. The countdown has begun. War is coming. The Red Cell’s mandate is simple: Plan out how China might invade the United States. With that information, America can prevent the unthinkable. But as the experts plan for war, David learns that not all of them intend for America to win…”

The War Stage – War Planners Book 2

“A Chinese plot to destroy the US economy. The growing threat of war with Iran. One man’s race to protect America, and save his brother. The origin of bitcoin, the world’s first widely adopted digital currency, is shrouded in mystery. Its founder has not been heard from since 2011.

Yet, as global financial markets suffer, several nations agree to start backing their currencies with bitcoin in a desperate attempt to stabilize their economies. The soon-to-open Dubai Financial Exchange will make this possible. Financed by the Chinese megabank, the AIIB, and pushed by Cheng Jinshan, a powerful Chinese investor, the dawn of a new era of global currency trade is upon the world.

But if Jinshan’s plan works, the value of the US dollar – and the American economy with it – will tumble. Weeks before the Dubai Financial Exchange opens, a US Navy destroyer sinks an Iranian patrol craft during a controversial exchange in the Persian Gulf. With tensions soaring between the two nations, an Iranian politician secretly contacts the CIA with a chilling revelation. 

Chase Manning is a rugged ex-SEAL working for the CIA’s Special Operations Group in the Middle East. Now, he is tasked with uncovering the truth behind the Iranian claims before it is too late. But in the midst of battling deadly assassins and uncovering the layers of intrigue surrounding the bitcoin-backed currency, Chase discovers that his own brother, David Manning, is right at the heart of the conspiracy.”
