Synopsis Eighteen Wheel Avenger by : William W. Johnstone

In New Orleans, Barry Rivers fought the mob and exposed traitors inside the U.S. government. Then, when a bomb killed the woman he loved, he started life again under a new identity—with a new mission. Now Rivers travels America’s highways in a midnight blue Kenworth with his dog named “Dog,” and a whole lot of guns, bullets, and bombs packed into the cab. An attempted hijacking on a New Mexico highway puts Rivers face to face with an unholy alliance of terrorists—and brings him the able-bodied assistance of a female Air Force Special Ops officer who knows how to shift a truck and shoot to kill. Now Rivers and Lieutenant Meri Cutter are driving a rig loaded with top secret, super-explosive transport coast to coast. They’re just waiting for the terrorists to make their next move—so they can strike back hard . . . and hit them where it counts. Live Free. Read Hard.

Synopsis Knockdown by : William W. Johnstone

JOHNSTONE COUNTRY. WHERE THE WILL DEFIES FEAR. They call him “The Rig Warrior.” Name: Barry Rivers. Occupation: Long haul trucker. Special skills: Defender of freedom. Patriot. Government sanctioned killer. A NATION OFF THE RAILS No one saw the first attack coming. A perfectly orchestrated assault on a mass-transit railroad line that left countless Americans dead. Then came more attacks. More rail systems sabotaged. More civilian lives lost. Intelligence experts are convinced this is no ordinary terrorist attack. To pull off something like this, it would take a deep-state traitor with dark foreign connections. And to stop them, it will take someone who isn’t afraid to shed blood. A HERO OFF THE GRID Enter Barry Rivers, the Rig Warrior. An urban legend in the intelligence community, Rivers has been living off the radar for years. But when he sees his country under attack, he reaches out to his son in the FBI to track down the enemies in our own government. To these high-ranking traitors, Rivers is a threat to their global agenda. But when Rivers revs up his tricked-out 18-wheeler—and goes after a runaway train on a collision course with disaster—all bets are off. The war is on. And with Barry Rivers at the wheel, it’s going to be the ultimate knockdown, drag-out fight for America’s future . . . Live Free. Read Hard.

Synopsis Serial Vigilantes of Paperback Fiction by : Bradley Mengel

Rough justice has often been served in the pages of serial novels, notably beginning with Don Pendleton's The Executioner in 1969. This is the first overview of the serial vigilante genre, which featured such hard-boiled protagonists as Nick Carter, Mark Stone, Jake Brand and Able Team among the 130 series that followed Pendleton's novel. Serial vigilantes repeatedly take the law into their own hands, establishing and imposing their own moral standards, usually by force. The book examines the connections between the serial vigilante and the pulp hero that preceded him and how the serial vigilante has influenced a variety of tough guys, private eyes, spies and cops in different media. A complete bibliography for each series is featured.

Synopsis Trigger Warning by : William W. Johnstone

From the USA Today–bestselling authors of Stand Your Ground comes the explosive story of a liberal college under siege—and freedom under fire. Former Army Ranger Jake Rivers is not your typical Kelton College student. He is not spoiled, coddled, or ultra-lib like his classmates who sneer at the “soldier boy.” But regardless of his differences with the rest of the student body, he needs an education. And when terror strikes, the school needs Jake. Without warning, the sounds of gunfire plunge the campus into a battle zone. A violent gang of marauders invade the main hall, taking students hostage for ransom. As a veteran and patriot, Jake won’t give in to their demands. But to fight back, he needs to enlist his fellow classmates and school them in the not-so-liberal art of war. This time, the aggression isn’t “micro.” It’s life or death. And only the strong survive.

Synopsis The Devil's Laughter by : William W. Johnstone

Something funny’s going on in Louisiana’s backwoods . . . Someone in LaGrange has stirred up something truly evil. From beyond, demonic messengers emerge out of the fires of Hell itself, to ignite an orgy of chaos, murder, and bloody destruction. But the Devil was the only one laughing . . . Town veterinarian Link Donovan (former CIA) and Sheriff Ray Ingalls have grave premonitions that the ungodly laughter they heard echoing through the woods meant this was only the beginning. Once they root out the rich folk whose meddling released the minions of Satan, they recruit a band of God-fearing locals like themselves ready to battle—and obliterate—whatever face of evil dares to cross their paths.
