The second American Revolution lasted just three years.

For three years the nation experienced an economic tsunami, political stability, judicial equality and social prosperity on levels never before seen in our history.

The secret society of assassins – PIPER'S, INC. – America's vigilant watchdog, had all but eliminated the puppet masters of our corrupt Congress, eviscerated the overseers of a degenerate criminal justice system, and culled most of the corporate Capitalist oligarchy.

So terrifyingly efficient were PIPER'S, INC.'s methods of retribution that the nation entered a cultural renaissance, and the 'American Dream'
– once a national joke – became an international success story. But the story has changed.

Under President Sanchez, a new Supreme Court and a political system guided by a rewritten Constitution – corruption, duplicity and the national crime rate plummeted.

This left PIPER'S, INC. running out of criminals, missions and relevance. Now downsizing its once-feared yet celebrated Ghost forces, it's now become a particularly opportune time to turn the tables and destroy the heralded organization for good.

From within.

A force unseen throughout history has waited for this very moment. A slow poison now seeps into the cracks of the organization's once-mighty armor.

An Achilles Heel has been discovered, and after three years, the betrayal of PIPER'S, INC., and the utter destruction of its place in history, now lay in the hands of just one man.

The second American Revolution lasted just three years.

It's the spring of 1939, and the prospect of war in Europe looms large. The United States has no intelligence service. In Washington, D.C., President Franklin Roosevelt may run for an unprecedented third term and needs someone he can trust to find out what the Nazis are up to. His choice: John F.Kennedy.
It's a surprising selection. At twenty-two, Jack Kennedy is the attractive but unpromising second son of Joseph P. Kennedy, Roosevelt's ambassador to Britain (and occasional political adversary). But when Jack decides to travel through Europe to gather research for his Harvard senior thesis, Roosevelt takes the opportunity to use him as his personal spy. The president's goal: to stop the flow of German money that has been flooding the United States to buy the 1940 election - an election that Adolf Hitler intends Roosevelt lose.
In a deft mosaic of fact and fiction, Francine Mathews has written a gripping espionage tale that explores what might have happened when a young Jack Kennedy is let loose in Europe as the world careens toward war. A potent combination of history and storytelling, JACK 1939 is a sexy, entertaining read.

In 2023, Australia reversed its closed border policy and said to the world:
‘Welcome! You are free to come to Australia, but you must spend the first seven years in the Temporary Citizenship Zone around the Ord River.’

Seven years later, Ord City is a teeming Asian metropolis with 2.5 million people preparing for the First Wave – the first tranche of refugees gaining full citizenship – on Australia Day 2030. But mainstream Australia is passionately divided over Ord City, not least because of the risk of letting in terrorists, and dark political forces are bubbling to the surface.
Agent Conan Tooley is sent up to Ord City to look into a routine gangland murder, but finds himself frustrated and confused by the questions that arise at every step. As the days to the First Wave count down, Conan encounters any number of people throwing up obstacles, including The Army of God (a Christian charity active in Ord City); a carload of young people travelling to Ord City for the Illumination Festival the night before the First Wave; and Asif, a deep cell terrorist with a deadly mission. There is also the Shadow Group – mysterious figures who seem to be pulling strings at high levels to achieve some hidden purpose.
As the various subplots wind towards the explosive conclusion, the motives and values of all are profoundly challenged.

Maybe the doctors in Washington should have told the truth. Maybe the American people had a right to know. Maybe the truth was called for with things in the country as bad as they were. What was the truth about Edward? What was the dilemma he faced and why would his ultimate decision affect the country? And was Megan the true example of the new liberated female or did she exist to serve men–the men she chose? Why was she called a meddling tramp by Eithne and the lovingest woman on earth by Scott? What was Valerie’s secret? These are all questions Edward finally finds the answers to in this absorbing story of what happens when a powerful figure in American politics has his life shaken by personal tragedy in a fast-paced world.

At a time when Australians are wavering in support of a proposed US-led invasion of Iraq, more than six hundred US Marines rotating on R & R in Bali suddenly disappear; then, Kuta erupts in a fireball and Australia falls into line with America's demand to become part of the 'Coalition of the Willing'.

Based on indisputable fact, a step by step account of the Bali bombers, the rise of extremist Islamic militancy across Asia and what the future might hold when terror is unleashed on Australia's doorstep, 'Crescent Moon Rising' relates the rise of militant Islam across Asia and how the US and other foreign intelligence agencies missed opportunities to arrest not only the instigators of the September 11 attacks on the USA but also those who created the Jemaah Islamiyah and carried out the Bali bombings. The Bojinka Plot is uncovered in Manila but the US ridicules the contents found on a white Toshiba laptop discovered after an apartment fire. The computer files lay out an assassination plot against the Pope who would visit that week, and the detailed plan to hijack 11 aircraft and crash these into the World Trade Towers and other US targets. The timing of this event was January 1995.

Burling’s reaction to the murder, and his desire to understand its larger meaning, propel him on a journey of intrigue and betrayal that will reach its ultimate end in the streets of Shanghai, months after 9/11.
