The Dark Waters Trilogy
Cold Front: A Logan Cross Thriller
He left the shadows of special operations behind… but the storm was waiting.
Boatswain’s Mate First Class Logan Cross wanted peace. After years serving on the Coast Guard’s elite Maritime Security Response Team, he traded covert raids and near-death missions for a quiet post in Gloucester, Massachusetts—and a future with his wife, Melanie.
But when a routine search-and-rescue call leads his crew to a blood-soaked crime scene adrift at sea, Cross is pulled into a chilling conspiracy. A known trafficker executed. A suspicious cover-up ordered by his own command. And a silent warning whispered through the ranks: Don’t ask questions.
As the body count rises and trust within the chain of command erodes, Cross must confront a terrifying truth—this wasn’t a murder of opportunity. It was an opening move.
Now, with only his instincts and the loyalty of a shaken crew, Cross must navigate deadly currents of corruption, deception, and betrayal… before the storm breaks over everything he swore to protect.
Integrity has a cost. Logan Cross is about to pay it.
Storm warning: A logan Cross thriller
Some threats never really end, they simply evolve.
Chief Boatswain’s Mate Logan Cross thought the threat of Blackwake was behind him. A plot to assassinate a government official stopped, conspirators behind bars, a new command position and a baby on the way. Cross thought the worst was in the past.
But when a key suspect is viciously murdered in prison, it quickly becomes clear that Blackwake never stopped. They were just regrouping… planning something far bigger. Something far more lethal.
As Cross begins to unravel the mystery behind the suspicious death, the violence lands on his doorstep. When the syndicate targets his pregnant wife, Melanie, it becomes apparent that he needs to take the fight to the next brutally violent level.
With help from trusted allies and teammates, Cross must take on a vicious and prepared syndicate that will stop at nothing to put him in the ground. This time, he won’t just fight to survive. He’ll fight to end it. But can Cross go far enough to protect those he loves?
Because when the storm strikes, only the strong survive its wake.

Nor’easter’s wake: A logan cross Thriller
Some threats only end one way.
Chief Boatswain’s Mate Logan Cross has spent months fighting a war he never asked for. What began with a murder adrift at sea has exposed a ruthless syndicate hidden in plain sight—one that has spent decades building influence, eliminating threats, and staying one step ahead of justice.
Now, as Blackwake prepares its most dangerous move yet, Cross finds himself racing against an enemy who always seems to know the next move before it’s made. Every lead uncovers another layer of deception. Every victory comes at a cost.
With his wife, Melanie, nearing the birth of their first child, the stakes have never been more personal. Cross has already sacrificed more than he ever thought possible to protect the people he loves. This time, he may have to sacrifice even more.
As a shadow falls over a critical piece of America’s coastline, Cross and his allies face a terrifying reality: stopping Blackwake may require crossing lines that can never be uncrossed.
Because when the storm finally arrives, everything in its path will be tested by its wake.
