Loving the Pre-order

I have one title listed for pre-order, The Education of a Killer. And so far, so good. I don't have the media dollars to pump it up, but it's selling. (And I am thankful!)
Thanks for reading.

The Education of a Killer - Now available for pre-order
The Education of a Killer
Sean is back.
The second novel featuring Pittsburgh's own, Sean Garrison is available for pre order.
Here's the link for those that can't wait:
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MR5EMO6
A little bit about the book:
The Education of a Killer picks up the instant Kill on Command ends. Sean’s prowess as a killer is increasing by the day and he doesn’t like it. Sean finds himself in a dark place, grappling with what he's become and where his life is headed. At the same time, CIA Director David O'Connor, sees the potential in Sean and wants to get him on the right track - a track that includes protecting the country from threats - foreign and domestic. However, Sean is lost. He’s losing touch with his friends, making bad relationship decisions and for all intents and purposes has gone off the rails.
North Korean intelligence officer, Song Hoon is determined to capture Sean and acquire the services of the demented doctor, Seamus McFarland. He desperately wants McFarland’s science. Hoon will use any means necessary including threatening the lives of the children of prominent Americans to gain leverage to achieve his goals.
Lurking in the shadows is Oscar Pasco, a man with the same skill set as Sean, but with a broken mind and driven only by personal gain. Eliminating Sean is a quick payday for Pasco and he is waiting patiently for his chance to strike at him.
Sean tries to be “Sean” but it’s becoming more and more of a challenge as a violent facet buried deep within his personality keeps bubbling to the surface. Before long, he is consumed with a thirst for revenge. He is hell bent on eliminating the men responsible for his situation and anyone he sees as a threat to those he cares for.
The big question is, will they get him before he gets them?
On his bloody path of vengeance, Sean is shot, beaten and lied to at every turn only to find that at the end of the day, the person he thought he could trust the least was the person he should trust the most.
Thanks for reading and I appreciate your support.
Cheers!

Killing Ana Molotov

KILLING ANA MOLOTOV is out. The book is a good backgrounder on one of KILL ON COMMAND's most interesting characters.
I personally like Ana, but she seems to have an interesting effect on people. Some just love her - others really despise her. There's not much in between.
Check out the book. Let me know where you land.
Thanks for reading.

Two new books on the way
Working through edits on THE EDUCATION OF A KILLER, the second Sean Garrison novel. Editing is not my thing and I'm looking for a good proofreader.
At the same time, I wrapped up a novella featuring Kill on Command's Ana Molotov. More details to come. (I guess I need to edit this too).
