She shook her head.
“You don’t know, or you won’t tell me?”
“Yes.” She arched an eyebrow, looked over his head and smiled.
Five minutes passed, then ten. Finally, about thirty minutes later, the door opened. Jack looked up, prepared to raise hell with whoever entered. He realized that wouldn’t be necessary.
“Hello, Jack.”
“Sasha? What are you doing here?”
“He brought me.”
“Greetings,” Jon said.
“I’m gonna miss my flight because of you two. You know that, right?”
“We know,” Jon said. “Not to worry. The Prime Minister will take care of you.” He nodded at the attractive officer and she left the room.
“So what gives?” Jack said.
Jon and Sasha looked at each other, smiled. They turned to Jack, forced serious looks upon their faces.
Jon said, “You know, Jack. You’re too young to retire to the islands.”
“I think that’s a personal choice that every man should be free to make.”
“You’ll be bored.”
“I’ll be drunk.”
“You’ll be alone.”
“With thousands of new tourist women flocking to the place every week.”
“No action or excitement.”
“I’ll get up, watch the sunrise, drive to the other side of the island to watch it set. Who says that isn’t exciting?”
Jon laughed. “Let’s cut to the chase.”
“Please do.”
Sasha said, “Jack, we have a proposal for you.”

Noble Beginnings: A Jack Noble Novel
In March of 2002, while the eyes of the world focused on Afghanistan, Jack Noble finds himself on the outskirts of Baghdad, Iraq. A Marine in name only, Jack is on-loan to the CIA. Normally an integral part of the team, he finds that he is nothing more than a security detail in Iraq.
Jack and his partner Bear have a run-in with four CIA special agents over the treatment of an Iraqi family. Within hours Jack and Bear are detained.
All Jack wanted was to finish his enlistment and move on with his life. All he did was intervene and save a family from unwarranted violence at the hands of four CIA agents. But he soon discovers that he did far more than intervene. He has placed himself dead square in the middle of a conspiracy that reaches the highest levels of the U.S. government.

A Deadly Distance (Jack Noble #2)
Washington, D.C. Midday. A man waits at a bus stop, his intentions unknown. Two government operatives have been stalking him for days, waiting for him to make his move. Unexpectedly, the man takes off running and heads for a deserted warehouse.
Jack Noble and his partner, Frank Skinner, believe the man to be part of a terrorist organization that is involved in smuggling drugs and guns and men into the country. But it turns out their plan involves far more export than import, and hits a lot closer to home.
As the case unfolds, the man behind it all reaches out to Jack with a simple message... 37 hours.

Author’s Note
Another season, come and gone. This was an interesting story to write. Jack had found himself in a position where he believed he was ready to retire. The job and the life and the events of the past six or seven months had worn him down considerably. Of course, that phone call asking for a favor caused him to put aside his plans for one more day.
By the end of this book, Jack, in my mind, has come almost full circle to where he was prior to the events of Episode 1. There are a few exceptions, and an addition, of course. And this, I think, sets us up for a wild ride with Mr. Noble over the course of the next few books.
What's next?
Jack will appear again soon in Never Go Home. I had originally planned for this to be a "flashback" or prequel novel that takes place after the events of A Deadly Distance. However, I'm planning to change a few details so that this book will take place shortly after the end of Season Three. I believe that will work better on a few levels.
The world needs more smart, deadly, kick-ass heroines. Therefore, it only makes sense that Clarissa should star in her own novel, due out this summer. The novel takes place immediately following the events of Season Three. I plan for this to be the first in a series.
There are still plans to create a series of novellas or novels featuring Bear and Mandy. Details to follow soon.
I'm almost finished with the first Mitch Tanner novel, a thriller featuring a homicide detective. Look for that one in June, 2013.
Finally, a big thank you to you the reader. I hope you continue to find as much enjoyment reading this series as I find in writing it. And if you have been enjoying these stories, tell a friend! I rely on word of mouth from readers like you to help get my works into additional hands and onto more kindles.
