- Thrillers about John Puller, a combat veteran turned army criminal investigator, sent to cases the military wants handled quietly.
- Each case stands mostly alone, but his family story, above all his brother imprisoned for treason, builds across the books, so read in order.
- Zero Day starts it; The Escape, centred on that brother, rates highest.
