T. R. HENDRICKS is a former United States Army Captain who served as a tank platoon leader, and then as a military intelligence officer, where he was an advisor to the Iraqi Ministry of Interior's National Information and Intelligence Agency. When not working or writing in his home in upstate New York, Hendricks is most likely reading, woodworking, or watching his beloved San Francisco 49ers. The Instructor is his first novel.

--Nick Petrie, bestselling author of The Breaker and other Peter Ash novels

My Shepherd 3 Favorite Reads of 2023!

My favorite read in 2023… DAMASCUS STATION by David McCloskey After I finished reading this, I thought I was qualified to recruit and run sources for the CIA. That’s how authentic McCloskey’s writing is. Damascus Station is so detailed that, at times, it seems like you’re reading a how-to guide for conducting clandestine operations. Field…
