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.

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

"Gritty, timely, and packed with action, The Instru ...more

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…
