Hi Jeffrey
Sorry for the terribly delayed reply...I just found this questions section my author panel today!!!
Thanks for reading my work. I've had an idea for a sequel to Infiltration Game kicking around in my head for years, but just haven't had time to write it. Someday, I'll write another Think Tank book, but not anytime soon I'm afraid!
Hope all is well with you my friend, cheers

Hi Jonnie
Sorry for the crazy long delay..I just found this questions section my author panel today!!!
The next book after Collateral is called DEMPSEY and it is out now. When you asked the question it was still in pre-pub. I hope you found it and enjoyed it.
The long delay between Collateral and Dempsey happened because we started two new series (Sons of Valor and The Shepherds). We're fast writers but there are limits to our productivity, HA!

Hi Geraldine!
Sorry for the abhorrently delayed reply...I just found this questions section my author panel today!!!
First off, thanks so much for reading our work. We really loved writing book 6 in the Pros Agent series and introducing McCoy, Ani, and Jr as characters in the universe. Presently, there are no plans to do another book, and we've moved over to write the Jack Ryan series. That said, we'd love to do another Pres Agent book sometime!
Be sure to check out Act of Defiance (Jack Ryan 24). It comes out on the 40th anniversary of Hunt For Red October next May!!!

Hi Jonnie,
First off, thanks so much reading my work. That means a lot to me!!!
Jeff and I love the Nick Foley series and the characters, but unfortunately, the publisher will not continue the series or sell us the rights. Arg. We always envisioned the series as a trilogy and have one more book we want to write, but I'm not sure that's ever going to happen. Sorry, wish I had better news!

Thanks for the response. Sad news but at least I have Sons of Valor 3 and Act of Defiance to look forward to. And hopefully more in the Sandbox series

Hi Candy, yes it is our intention and desire to write many books in the Tier One series. Assuming the demand from the fans keeps our publisher happy, we hope to follow John Dempsey on many adventures, but we also want to write stand-alone novels about Shane Smith, Elizabeth Grimes, Kelso Jarvis, etc so people can get to know these characters better. What do you think of the idea of "shared world" novels like that?

Sounds great.... I love this story & when I really fall for a group of characters that works together more is ALWAYS good. I received this book as a 'free' copy from Goodreads & I'm truly grateful for it because this was way out of my wheelhouse on the 'political' scale.... that's my husband's ball of wax so to speak. But because of his knowing & sharing all things politics with me this books was very easy for me to get into plus I just couldn't put it down it was so good. I even told my husband he should read it & he doesn't do novels! I want MORE Tier One squad!!! I sure hope ya'll give it to me.... THX!!!

I’m even later to this party, but I’m not a fan of “shared worlds”. It’s like legal fan fiction. Good for aspiring writers, not so good for readers. Very uneven quality and character development. If by shared worlds you mean spin-offs written by the original authors then I’m onboard with that.

Embrace the adage "All writing is rewriting." If you can overcome the fallacy that your first draft is the story, you empower yourself to improve the plot, the conflict, the suspense, and the stakes. Finishing the first draft is not an end, it is the means to starting the revision process that will take your novel to the next level.
