The Max Caine Series

Book One: The Hope Trigger

Max Caine is a paramilitary kidnap and ransom operative with powerful instincts and extraordinary senses, making him the most sought-after expert in his field. Recovering from a leg wound received during a recent extraction case, he reluctantly accepts an unusual mission to rescue Hope Klocek, a woman in emotional crisis. Max is built for heart-pounding, guns-blasting rescues, but this case is deeply psychological, and way out of his wheelhouse.

Serious complications arise. He calls it the Twilight, a phenomenon where reality intensifies, and bizarre events occur, a parallel world he must navigate until it chooses to free him. His instincts sharpen; time and weather move backward, and ghosts walk at his side. Worse yet, he’s falling in love with Hope.

Max is a man who fears little, but should he fail this case, the consequences terrify him. The journey from rescue mission to self-clarity can mess with a soldier’s head. He never expected to come fact-to-face with the damaged man he is. Max must free himself from his own past before he can complete this all-important rescue.

The big question—is that even possible?
