BREVIG MISSION PLAGUE
“SECURITY” IS THE NAME OF THE GAME
FOR GARY NESBITT AND JOHN MASON
BUT TERRORISM IS NO GAME.
Fresh off a job testing the defenses of Britian’s crown jewels, the SecurityCheck company is approached by the U.S. government with an assignment of much greater import: Gary, John and their team are asked to verify the safety of a federal lab in Brevig Mission, Alaska, home of U.S. research into the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic.
Saudi terrorists have chosen this virus, which killed an estimated twenty million people worldwide, as their next major biological weapon — and U.S. officials demand a complete test of the facility’s defenses. The SecurityCheck team is happy to oblige but quickly finds that the lab has already been compromised.
With a potential plague developing, the SecurityCheck team must fight the clock to stop a terrorist threat — and perhaps even find a cure. Can their faith in God help them through the trials ahead? Will they succeed in their new missison — or see thousands, perhaps millions, die?
“Frank Simon has done it again. Set against a backdrop of global terrorism, Brevig Mission Plague is a chillingly plausible story that kept me hooked right to the end.”

THE JEWEL IN THE CROWN
Gary Nesbitt and John Mason are the best thieves in the business, and
they’ve just been offered the job of a lifetime. As the brainpower
behind an elite security-testing company, the gentlemen are handsomely paid
to compromise complicated defense systems, steal invaluable items, and
provide crucial feedback to the company heads.
When a top governmental official hires them to pull off the biggest heist in British history — lifting the Queen Mother’s crown from the Tower of London — the SecurityCheck team packs up and heads for jolly old England. Hacker Ann O’Brien, communications guru Dan Thompson, and the irrepressible Sully join the safecrackers, anxious to apply their talents to the next-to-impossible task.
But as events unfold, the experts find themselves on the wrong side of the law — and on the run. The stakes have never been higher for the team. Can a knack for stealth and diversion save them? Or will it take faith in something beyond their abilities to intervene in the unpredictable journey ahead?
“Move over Clancy, you’ve got some stiff competition in Frank Simon. Heist Company: The Jewel in the Crown is a tightly plotted and meticulously researched thriller that is sure to keep readers turning the pages to the very end. I was intrigued from the first pages.”

THE GATHERING STORM
ONE FEDERAL JUDGE IS DEAD AND THE PRESIDENT COULD BE NEXT
Only one person knows who lies behind the sinister winds blowing off the Lake Michigan shore.
Barbara Post is an ATF agent from Texas who specializes in heavy-weapons and explosives. After investigating the murder of a federal judge in Yellowstone National Park, she is assigned to the ATF office in Grand Rapids, Michigan, where she is to investigate a militia movement brewing along the shores of the Great Lakes.
What Barbara discovers is more horrorific than anyone could ever have imagined. She finds the militia much more than a group of local yokel government dissidents. Instead it is really made up of elite trained soldiers who have been deliberately cultivating a low profile. They are not only responsible for the federal judge’s death in Wyoming but have an even more dangerous plot they are about to execute.
A timely suspense-filled action thriller about the threat of terrorism from militias within the United States.
