“If you like mystery, if you like suspense, if you like non stop action, then this is the book. A GREAT read!”

“Twists and turns galore, and the little twist on the last page made me smile and shake my head!”

“Expect many late nights.”

“A serious page turner from the start.”

Take Tom Keeler, a recently decommissioned officer in an elite special operations unit of the United States Air Force, now a man on an open ended vacation in Europe. Your function was kill or be killed, seek and destroy, and now you’re among civilians.

And you’ve arrived in this small French town, where your mother spent her summers. But, things don’t immediately compute for your heightened powers of perception. For example, three men try and knife you right off the bat. Which wasn’t very smart of them, but whatever, you start getting interested in the why of it.

And things start adding up. Like the beautiful police officer Cecile Nazari, and the fact that your elderly cousin was stabbed in the head with a sharpened screwdriver. And the local cops are behaving weirdly, like they’ve got something to hide.

So, yeah, maybe you start to get interested in what’s going on. Do a little digging and discover that the situation in Alencourt, France is even worse than you thought.

When a guy like Tom Keeler gets interested, the life expectancy of the perpetrators begins to shrink. But, here in Alencourt the rot is deep, and the hidden enemies are vicious and ruthless and very, very smart.

November 2016, Israel Egypt border zone

Tom Keeler is on rest and recuperation leave, recovering from injuries sustained in the Syrian battleground. He’s got a week and a half of R&R left and the only thing Keeler desires is to take full advantage of the desert landscape and Yasmin, his guide.
That’s all thrown into question when two corpses show up in the border zone.
When Keeler and Yasmin cross into the badlands of North Sinai in pursuit of the suspected murderers, the cross paths with a traitorous Egyptian intelligence agent who would kill to keep a deadly secret.

Badlands is the sixth Tom Keeler Thriller, with action and intrigue from beginning to end. This adventure takes Keeler on a journey through the badlands of the North Sinai desert to the bleak heart of Europe.

Tom Keeler’s been on the road for the better part of two days, no sleep, no food, just a relentless bus ride out of West Texas to this small farming town in Ohio.

It’s all because his sister Laura sent him a message. Cryptic in tone, pregnant with meaning.

Clearly she wasn’t free to speak her mind. For whatever reason, Laura felt the need to beat around the bush.

Which isn’t like her.

Turns out that Keeler came a little too late.

The situation is even worse than he’d expected.

The problems are deep and profound. The corruption and rot so intense that there’s almost nothing left to salvage.

Not that this is a problem, trouble like this gives Keeler’s life meaning.

Even if it’s possible that this time he’s bitten off more than he can chew.
