Virus
Mystery, Thriller & Suspense
Some truths are more deadly than any virus.
1957. Fort Detrick, Maryland.
The Cold War is at a fever pitch and American virologist Richard Parker is burned out. When he's offered a chance at a quiet break to see his family — if he takes on one last project — he jumps at it.
His new partner is a former scientist from Japan's infamous Unit 731. His proposal is unthinkable: resurrect the 1918 Spanish Flu virus and turn it into a deterrent so terrible the Soviets would never dare attack America.
It's meant to be a weapon for peace.
Until the plane carrying their extraction team goes down outside a small Alaskan city.
One crash. One catastrophic containment failure.
And suddenly a nightmare from history is loose on American soil.
Now, as the outbreak spreads and the body count rises, the megalomaniacal colonel in charge of the program will do anything to cover it up — bury the evidence, silence witnesses, and let the virus burn itself out.
Was the virus meant to be America's salvation, or will it become its destruction?
The U.S. military is about to learn that neither the virus — nor the truth — can be contained.

The Team Arrives in Alaska
They didn’t come to Alaska to wait. They came to secure the sample — fast. Under direct orders from the colonel, the team has no room for hesitation. Every minute counts, and every decision carries the weight of the mission. This is where VIRUS turns. What begins as a high-pressure retrieval to win the Cold War arms race becomes the spark for an outbreak no one can control — and a cover-up that will push science, loyalty, and sanity to the breaking point. The question is no longer what they were sent to do. It’s who they’re really serving. The truth cannot be contained.
The Wolf's Den
Mystery, Thriller & Suspense
An OSS agent. A desperate Nazi physicist. An alliance forged in the shadow of the Gestapo.
American OSS agent Adrian Krause is on the verge of returning home to his wife when a last-minute assignment changes everything. He is ordered directly into the wolf’s den of 1940s Germany with a single, high-stakes directive: retrieve top-secret intelligence regarding the Third Reich’s atomic weapons program.
His mission begins with investigating Dr. Joachim Herz, a prominent physicist and member of the National Socialist party. However, the mission takes an unexpected turn when Krause is confronted by the physicist himself. Instead of an enemy, Krause finds a desperate man pleading for help.
Herz reveals a dark reality: two rogue Gestapo officers are blackmailing him, holding the life of his beloved Jewish wife in the balance to ensure his compliance. Moved by the physicist's plight and facing a common enemy, the American spy and the Nazi scientist must forge an unlikely, dangerous alliance. Together, they embark on a high-stakes race against time to outsmart the corrupt officers before the Gestapo brings both of their lives to a brutal end.

OSS Agent Finally Steps In
He was sent to Nazi Germany to gather intelligence — not to get involved. But when a contact begs him to save him and his Jewish wife from the Gestapo, staying out of it stops being an option. Duty says: complete the mission. Humanity says: you can’t walk away from this. One sight — one moment he can’t unsee — forces him to choose. And in the Wolf’s Den, choosing to act could cost him everything.
