JACK MCCLURE
Jack McClure is an ATF agent who has lost everything but his job. His daughter was killed in a terrible accident and his marriage disintegrated shortly after. And even in the ATF he is an anomaly: as a guy who grew up on the streets, he always has one foot on each side of the law. But he’s also a very gifted agent, with analytical talents that are unsurpassed in the service.
1. First Daughter
When a terrible accident takes the life of his only daughter and his marriage falls apart, Jack McClure blames himself, numbing the pain by submerging himself in work. Then he receives a call from his old friend Edward Carson – a man who is only weeks from becoming President of the United States.
Carson’s daughter Alli has been kidnapped and Jack is the one man he can trust to go to any lengths to find his daughter and bring her home safely.
For Jack, this is a chance to lay his past to rest… but at what price? His search for Alli puts him in the path of a dangerous and calculating man. Someone whose actions are as cold as they are brilliant. Whose power and reach are seemingly infinite. And who would do anything to the future first daughter to attain his ends…

2. Last Snow
“This is a copy of Berns’s official itinerary. Kiev was his last stop. Remember this name: K. Rochev. As far as we know, Rochev was the last man he saw before he left Ukraine.”
Four days ago, US Senator Lloyd Berns was killed in a hit-and-run on the island of Capri off the Italian coast. His death deals a serious blow to President Carson’s precarious new administration. But more worrying is that Berns was never officially on Capri. According to the White House, Berns was on a tour of the Ukraine.
Agent Jack McClure is babysitting Carson’s troubled daughter in Moscow. Alli is still traumatised by her abduction last year, and the only person she trusts is Jack, the man who rescued her. But the President needs Jack to investigate the Senator’s final days in the Ukraine, and since Alli won’t be parted from her protector, he’ll have to take her along.
Their starting point is the senator’s last known contact: K. Rochev. But all they find at Rochev’s address is the body of a young woman, brutally executed. And now Jack and Alli have attracted dangerous attention from the Ukrainian police, the FSB, and the Russian mafia...

A new president. A new life. Orphan Alli Carson has taken up a post at Fearington, the elite covert training school. Now she fears that the people who worked relentlessly to undermine her father – and ultimately cause his death – are targeting her too.
Meanwhile, Washington’s top agent, Jack McClure, is being threatened by one of Russia’s most fearsome assassins. But is this attempt the action of his lover’s criminal family, or a move to remove him before the American government can call upon him for aid?
With the two people who might be able to save his reputation out of the picture, President Arlen Crawford is struggling to preserve the pretence of power in the corridors of the White House.
All paths collide at the feet of one man, an old legend adapting to an ever-changing landscape. A man who was lost in the annals of Nazism’s worst atrocities, but whose heinous cause is still very much alive. A man code-named Father Night...

If McClure is to complete his mission now, he must evade the CIA officers on his tail. And to do that, he must find Annika Dementieva, the woman he once loved and lost...
