Book 1
In a time when the U.S. military is shrinking, our leaders are turning to high technology as a force equalizer. America has not had a new hand-held rifle since the M16 was introduced in the 1960s. Now there's a new gun ready to take its position as the NATO standard. A gun so sophisticated, so fast, so unbelievably accurate, it will turn the average shooter into an expert marksman almost instantly. The problem is, it was developed by a German company with no U.S. production contract. That's where Warfield Arms, a Denver gun company, enters the action. Warfield hires Chad Hunter, a private weapons designer who had worked for the German company, to go to Germany to convince the company that Warfield is the perfect partner. To sweeten the deal, Hunter must first convince Frank Baldwin, a struggling optics engineer from Wyoming, who has developed the most advanced rifle scope ever conceived, that his scope would be the perfect match for this new German rifle. With the scope as bait, the Germans would surely deal. What Hunter and Baldwin find in Germany during the middle of the Oktoberfest celebration, could just get them both killed. Other countries and private factions would like this new weapon, and some in Germany want it only for that country.
Book 2
Four years after Chad Hunter and Frank Baldwin secured the most successful small arms weapon system in American history, the Hypershot, they are thrust back into a new adventure that propels them from Southeast Asia to Scandinavia and back to the wilderness. Sirena, an American spy, is undercover in Copenhagen when her contact is killed right in front of her, before she can get the information she needs. Now she is suddenly propelled on a journey to the American Southwest, following the killers. Meanwhile, someone is blowing up palatial estates of businessmen across the world. What's the motive? How are they doing it without detection? Then a government scientist working on one of the most secret weapons ever conceived is kidnapped. Are these series of events related? Only Sirena can find out for sure, but she must do so before the bombers strike more high-valued targets, while wrestling with her feelings for Chad. Global Shot can strike at any time without warning. Rods from God will strike down like Thor.
