2 total works
In one short but fateful day, former Navy Seal Dr. Rex Bent has gone from dedicated emergency room physician to the most hunted man on the planet. After stumbling onto the world's biggest terrorist plot, as told in Crisis: Blue, Dr. Bent is framed by extremists, with no small amount of help from the media and inept politicians. Now every fanatic on the planet-from Iranian operatives to North Korean restaurateurs to an FBI agent with tunnel vision and blood lust-wants Rex dead.
With his beautiful, yet deadly, wife, Trissy, and a sassy, swamp-bred Cajun sidekick he picked up while stealing a helicopter, Rex must elude capture by the good guys and the bad guys so he can expose the real threat to America before it's too late.
Part thrill-a-minute adventure tale and part satiric look at what a dystopian America could look like after years of feckless government and military spending cuts, Crisis: Black will delight readers of Tom Clancy, Jack Higgins, and Clive Cussler.

North Korea continues to taunt the United States by detonating nuclear weapons and launching long-range missiles across the Pacific. This threat is suddenly overshadowed by the destruction of the US fleet as it sails through the Straits of Hormuz and into the Persian Gulf. As the crisis escalates, little attention is paid to several blue, bloated, and grossly disfigured Asian sailors who wash ashore in Galveston, Texas. Meanwhile, the North Korean cargo ship, Il-sung, is able to slip into Whiskey Bay, Louisiana, unnoticed, where she offloads her cargo: highly radioactive weapons of mass destruction. As more Asian sailors become deathly ill from the many weeks spent at sea in close proximity to their lethal cargo, they are transferred to a small hospital in Carencrow, Louisiana, for treatment. Dr. Rex Bent, an emergency room physician, immediately becomes suspicious and notifies the proper authorities. With their coup de grace in jeopardy the extremists realize that Dr. Bent--and his wife and confidante, Sharon--must be eliminated without raising suspicion.
Pursued and hounded like traitors who had betrayed their country, the Bents are in a race against time, determined to discover the significance of Crisis: Blue.
