SEAL Cypher Series

Imagine a Suspense Thriller Series, with a former Navy SEAL as it's protagonist, now working as a private investigator. Military to an extent, but with an intellectual edge with Codes and Symbols Mystery. Like Lee Child's Reacher meets Dan Brown's intellect. Love these authors? Chances are you will love my books too, as my writing is influenced by both authors!
