** Over 2,000 five star reviews across the series! **
FROM USA TODAY & AMAZON #1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR. Box set comprising: The Kill List, Drifter Part I, Drifter Part II, & Drifter Part III. ***SPOILERS AHEAD***
Meet retired cop, Sam Prichard.
THE KILL LIST (Book 5) “Mr. Prichard, it said, the people you see in the photos will be killed within the next forty-eight hours, unless you stop me. I have been following your exploits closely, and I think that you are the one I need to make sure I stop doing this. I've been trying for more than fifteen years to kick this habit, but I can't. Normally, I don't strike so many times so close together, but in order to get you interested, I'm going to up the odds. I need you to do only two things: discover who each of my victims is, and then do all you can to stop me before I can kill each one. The first one will die exactly twenty-four hours after you receive this note. The second will die twelve hours after that... ...and the third twelve hours after that. If you cannot stop me before I can kill the third one, then no one can. Then there will be a fourth victim, but you get no clues for that one. Good luck." DRIFTER: PART I (Book 6) Sam takes on an odd case: he's hired to track down a man who has been thought to be dead for more than forty years, but recently showed up alive to visit his dying mother. Now his daughter, who never even met him, wants to ask him where he's been all this time, and why she grew up without him in her life. When that man turns out to be a former government assassin who's gone rogue, however, Sam decides it's time for him to bow out of the case--but then he learns that the one you think is the bad guy isn't always right. The supposedly rogue agent, it turns out, may actually be trying to save America from global Jihad. With everything from his family's safety to the future of America's Sovereignty on the line, Sam has to figure out who to trust and what to do, before it all blows up in his face. DRIFTER: PART II (Book 7) Sam Prichard is on his way to the most unbelievable mission any PI could ever blunder into--to stop a madman who thinks he is the Antichrist! The only problem is that this madman is smart, smart enough that he's been working toward this goal for many years, and never gotten caught. To make matters worse, there's no one to whom Sam can turn, because everyone in politics owes this man favors, and fears the day he reveals what he knows. With just a former CIA assassin at his side and a determination to save his country and the thousands that the madman is prepared to sacrifice to his false gods, Sam Prichard must go to the ends of the earth to try to stop the end of the world! DRIFTER: PART III (Book 8) When he was asked to locate a man who seemed to have disappeared in Vietnam but then turned up alive in Denver forty years later, he thought he was simply taking on a case to help bring closure to a daughter who felt abandoned. Unfortunately, there's a lot more to the story, and now Sam must ally himself to one of the most deadly, cold-blooded killers he's ever known. A rogue agent of the CIA has decided that a number of ancient prophecies, including those in the Bible, name him as the new world leader, and he will literally stop at nothing to achieve his goals.

Ken Benton - 2015
When China and Japan decide it’s time to dump U.S. Treasury Bonds, an economic nightmare plays out in America. The Federal Reserve watches helplessly as the dollar is decimated and the resulting food shortage spreads lawlessness across the land like a virus. Malcolm is a successful day trader who always needs to make one more score before he’ll listen to Ryan and diversify some of his assets into real estate or gold. He figures an impressively-larger bank account might be the only way he can lure his Secret Service agent ex-wife back. Malcolm finally hits it big by aggressively shorting bonds when the market crashes, but waits too long to invest in tangibles. All that newfound money suddenly won’t by him a bar of gold, a pint of beer, or a minute of Hannah’s attention—especially when she’s in the field chasing down a former counterfeiting gang. As luck would have it, Ryan turns out to be a closet doomsday prepper. The two of them attempt to escape the chaotic Big Apple and reach Ryan’s land in West Virginia, supplied only by the contents of Ryan’s bug-out bag. But it’s not going to be an easy journey. Traveling has become difficult and dangerous. Malcolm learns he must redirect the same tenacity which helped him beat the markets towards staying alive on the road …and, hopefully, finding Hannah.
