Author Stan R. Mitchell writes a tight sniper/CIA thriller in his second novel Sold Out, which plunges readers into a deep, dark conspiracy and should delight fans of authors Vince Flynn, Stephen Hunter, and Lee Child. Mitchell's first book (Little Man, and the Dixon County War) climbed as high as No. 16 on the Amazon UK Paid List, and his fans are cheering his second book as an even tighter, epic story that shows what happens when free speech slams into the messy realities of national security. Blood flows early and often in this story that will keep you riveted until the very end. Book Description: Nick Woods used to be one of our country's greatest snipers. A Marine who completed a bloody, top-secret mission behind enemy lines years ago, he now just wants to live in peace with his wife. But Nick is about to get caught in a grand conspiracy between a senior investigative reporter and a shadowy, CIA group. After said reporter, Allen Green, breaks the details of Nick's story -- blowing the top off America's national security -- both Nick and Allen find themselves in the sights of a CIA hunter-killer group. This CIA group breaks the law and kills at will, and they'll stop at nothing to take down Nick Woods and the reporter who published the earth-shattering story he'd been chasing for years.
Stan R. Mitchell, the highly touted author of the Marine Sniper novel "Sold Out," lays down the lead in this epic Western tale -- a story of how even good must often become soiled in order to win. "Little Man, and the Dixon County War" is a fast-paced, action-packed book set in the Western era. Fans of "Appaloosa" and "Django Unchained" will almost certainly enjoy it. Book description: Young Deputy Marshal Paul Zachary shouldn't have accepted that badge. And he certainly shouldn't have shot down a ruthless gun fighter in front of a crowd of onlookers at Belleville's busiest saloon. But now that the smell of gunpowder has faded and the blood has been scrubbed off the floor, Zachary is something he never wanted to be: a damned hero. And whether he wanted it or not, the 27-year-old Zachary has earned a big-time reputation, as well as the name "Little Man" -- a derogatory term initially used by a famous gunfighter to describe his lack of age and stature. Unfortunately for Zachary, his exploits in the newspapers are bringing people hope in the crime-ridden West, where lawless land barons push the weak, and sworn law officers balance keeping the peace and staying alive. The kind of hope that Zachary brings can't go on, so the West's most powerful cattle baron -- McConnell -- decides he must kill this increasingly legendary law officer. McConnell can't get at the cautious Zachary on his home ground, so McConnell dispatches an evil gang of gunhands to kill Zachary's best friend and abduct the man's wife. McConnell knows Zachary will come to rescue the woman and in doing so, will enter Dixon County, or what the locals call Devil's County. Here, in this godforsaken stretch of country, McConnell owns most of the land and ALL of the law. In order to save the woman, Zachary must achieve what even the Army couldn't pull off: Cleaning out the lair of murderers, thieves, and cowhands who answer only to McConnell. McConnell has bribed or buried every man who's ever stood up to him, including a good-sized Army detachment, so if Zachary plans to take down almost a hundred gunhands and rescue the wife of his murdered friend, he's going to need to round up some of the best fighters the West has seen. Keeping these temperamental men together, while dodging traps, ambushes, and double-crosses at every turn, would prove a herculean task for a man twice Zachary's age, but the quiet Zachary is no pushover. He learned to fight, and fight hard, from being the youngest in a tough line of men who've never missed a war. And, Zachary just survived three long, hard years in a ragtag, Rebel cavalry troop charged with raiding Northern towns. Now Zachary will attempt the impossible. He knows it may cost him his life, but some wrongs must be made right.
