Spree

2012

Superspy and assassin Chandler has just barely averted nuclear annihilation when the very organization she works for has her brought in on treason charges, trussed up for interrogation. After a run-in with Chicago Homicide cop Jack Daniels, Chandler discovers one of her sister Fleming has been transferred to a black ops site where the modus operandi is torture and death. Chandler launches a breakneck mission to infiltrate an impossibly secure prison—putting her on a collision course with a squad of violent psychopaths trained to negate her precise skill set. As old enemies reemerge and new ones appear around every corner, Chandler will rely on the help of unexpected allies, including an ex-mob enforcer named Tequila and a firefighter named Lund. But even they may not be enough to stop what lurks within the unlisted military base: a rogue government agency plotting to destabilize the entire nation—and conquer the world.

Three

2013

Time is running out for Chandler, the elite assassin whose mission to rescue her sister from a notorious black ops prison landed her at the top of the nation’s Most Wanted list. Burned by her handlers and forced to work with her mortal enemy in a race to preserve the very government that wants her dead, the living weapon has become a ticking time bomb. In saving her sister, Chandler unleashed a power-mad American president dead set on controlling the world—no matter how many millions of innocent people he must kill to do it. To stop him, Chandler will go deeper than she’s ever gone before, pushing her body and mind to their absolute limits. All the while she is hunted by the one man who knows her every secret, her every hiding place—and her every weakness. Infiltrating the White House, crashing a bullfight in Mexico City, hijacking a blimp in Toronto…these are just the beginning of the end, as the Codename: Chandler trilogy races towards its stunning conclusion. Three is the third novel in the Codename: Chandler series. The order is Flee, Spree, and Three. There are also three short prequels, Exposed, Hit, and Naughty, featuring Chandler and company. The books also feature many appearances from the authors' other thrillers, including Lt. Jack Daniels (Whiskey Sour), private eye Harry McGlade (Shaken), Tequila Abernathy (Shot of Tequila), and Val Ryker and David Lund (Pushed Too Far). Spree also features villains from Blake Crouch's novels Abandon and Snowbound, and Santiago from Afraid by Jack Kilborn. The series can be read in any order, but for those who prefer chronologically, it goes like this: SHOT OF TEQUILA EXPOSED HIT WHISKEY SOUR BLOODY MARY RUSTY NAIL DIRTY MARTINI ABANDON SNOWBOUND PUSHED TOO FAR NAUGHTY FLEE SPREE THREE FUZZY NAVEL CHERRY BOMB SHAKEN STIRRED Chandler will appear in Last Call, the ninth Jack Daniels thriller, being co-written with Blake Crouch for a mid 2013 release, and Free, the fourth Codename: Chandler adventure, in 2014.
