The Enemy of My Enemy

by W.E.B. Griffin

2018

In a world where yesterday’s enemies can become today’s temporary partners, a new mission forces uneasy cooperation. Operatives navigate betrayal, shifting intelligence, and the reality that alliances are tools, not friendships, when the stakes involve national survival.

Death at Nuremberg

by W.E.B. Griffin

2017

A death connected to the Nuremberg-era world pulls a clandestine team into an investigation loaded with history and danger. As they chase answers through postwar politics, they learn that some crimes do not end when the trials do.

Curtain of Death

by W.E.B. Griffin

2016

Behind the growing divide of the Cold War, operatives face a case where one mistake can trigger international fallout. The team fights to protect an asset and expose a deadly plot, all while the political “curtain” closes and options disappear.

Top Secret

by W.E.B. Griffin

2014

A top-secret problem lands on a clandestine team’s desk, and solving it means moving fast before enemies and allies alike react. The mission mixes bureaucracy, tradecraft, and danger on the ground, where the wrong paperwork can be as deadly as a bullet.

The Assassination Option

by W.E.B. Griffin

2014

A looming assassination threat forces operatives to weigh hard choices, including whether removing one person could prevent a larger disaster. The plot hinges on surveillance, competing agendas, and the moral unease of choosing an “option” that cannot be discussed openly.
