"A gritty American tale that blends mystery, suspense and romance
seamlessly into one nail biting, page turning journey, through the eyes
of a troubled young FBI agent." In 1985, Alex Hollick takes an ill-fated
walk on the dark side of the FBI. Amidst the anguish of a botched sting
operation, Hollick learns of the internal corruption that helped shape
the deadly event. He must now travel to Virginia, unknowingly as a
suspect in the scandal, where he is kidnapped and tortured by three
misfit CIA agents. Hollick faces an agonizing choice, to join a
clandestine division, burrowed deep within the FBI, or to take his
chances as a civilian, with a head full of secrets. Hollick's choice
leads him to a dark underworld, where he must participate in a cover up,
nearly as bloody as the scandal itself. As the troubled young agent
attempts to transition into homicide investigations, with an emphasis on
satanic crime, good and evil intentions threaten to expose the plot and
destroy him in the process. His career and personal life collide, as
Hollick is tormented, by a flurry of uncontrollable events, and forced
to tread carefully, through a minefield of consequences, to protect
himself and the woman he loves.
After a year of seclusion from his demons, the violent death of a former
colleague, forces Hollick to revisit his bloody past. He inherits a new
set of challenges, willed to him by his mentor, John Novak, when he
learns that he is the chief suspect, in a multi-jurisdictional
investigation. Hollick hopes for a second chance with Fletcher, but a
relationship she has developed in his absence, stands in the way.
Instead, he develops a casual friendship, with a young woman from his
drug recovery program, which leads to both progress and decline. At the
order of his new employer, Hollick reluctantly agrees to frame a satanic
coven for a church bombing, with help from another division member. The
bombing unveils a dark secret in a Tennessee town, that leads Hollick
to a cold case investigation and a new partner. Rotten Was The Harvest
is the second installment in The Alex Hollick F.B.I. Series. This nail
biting, page turning thriller, pits Hollick against pimps, drug dealers,
Neo-Nazis and L.A.’s new bureau chief. Hollick must protect himself
from a federal indictment, while protecting a small town from a
dangerous threat.
Hollick’s story pickups in 1989, two years after going into hiding. As
Hollick begins to reflect on his past, while walking on shaky ground in
his division, he is faced with life changing decisions. Director Clay is
desperately trying to avoid the consequences of his past administrative
decisions and a mutiny is developing within the division itself. A
congressional hearing looms over Hollick and a new division must contend
with old business. Both Fletcher and Sloan begin to find their place in
life after dealing with their respective demons. Dr. Patricia Jones
struggles to find a place in Hollick’s future. Shawn Stallard’s attempt
to build his own future puts a grisly double murder case into Hollick’s
hands.
Hollick and Sloan travel to Upstate New York to investigate a bizarre series of abductions, after the discovery of two victims with missing organs. As Empires Fall is the third installment in The Alex Hollick F.B.I. Series. This nail biting, page turning thriller, follows Hollick at a crossroads in his personal and professional life. Hollick struggles to retain his career, friendships and his life, as he desperately tries to find footing in an unstable division.
