AT Bay (Book 1)
Alexandra Giordano never knew she had it so good. Until it was all gone in an instant.
As she begins her daunting quest to uncover the black spots on her memory, what she finds isn’t sweet or charming or even pleasant. And that’s when she begins to question everything, including herself.
Her work as a Special Agent for the FBI is only a distraction, serving as a mental metronome…anything to crank the gears of her feeble mind.
And then it happens—a bizarre, ritualistic murder. She loses herself in her work. Unable to recall even her own kids, she’s somehow able to formulate coherent theories on what type of person could pull off such a sickening act.
As her mind slowly plugs a few memory gaps, her emotions are scrambled by the reality of her worlds colliding. And the resulting explosion tears her in two.
Can she pick up all the incendiary fragments to solve the twisted crime while she clings to some semblance of sanity?
One woman can only keep so much…AT Bay.
AT Large (Book 2)
The pursuit of the truth. The hunt for a life.
For the first time in months, FBI Special Agent Alex Troutt feels almost normal, hanging out at a local bar with friends after work. Not long into the evening she stumbles over one of the most disturbing images she has ever seen.
And that’s only the beginning.
A body is found in Lowell, the human damage, once again, inconceivable. Hours later, another strike. Pushing heartache aside, Alex immerses herself in the investigation. But with every new clue comes a new twist.
With the killing spree drawing the attention of every intelligence and law enforcement agency in a five-state radius, Alex is forced to partner with an egomaniac from the CIA. Yet, even with limitless resources, every step forward proves to be a step too late.
Once the killer makes it personal, Alex is left with no other option—she must confront the person who destroyed her life to try to cease the vicious murders. And when she finally learns the killer’s end game, every second counts if she has any hope of stopping the brutal killings.
AT Once (Book 3)
“If you don’t stand for something, you will fall for anything.”
With the Boston area again targeted by extremists, Boston Strong of just a few years ago is now Boston on Edge. And this time, the targets are men of the cloth—priests.
At least that’s how it looks at first.
As investigators struggle to make sense of the bombings, FBI Special Agent Alex Troutt is thrown for a loop when the FBI assistant director asks her to investigate one of their own—a colleague and friend who is suspected of having ties to a known terrorist. Torn between her values of friendship and the oath she gave when she accepted her FBI credentials, Alex must now lead two investigations simultaneously.
The bombings don’t stop, and panic sets in as the carnage spreads beyond the realm of the original targets.
Bloody Sunday. The IRA. The movement toward peace. Wounds of decades ago have reopened, bleeding all over Boston. As she pieces together the puzzle, Alex begins to wonder just how innocent her colleague really is. It’s almost too much for her to fathom.
Just how far will someone go to make a stand?

Actually, I did not read it through. Too much vulgarity. I don’t think ANY story was EVER improved by the author proving his/her mastery of the language by speckling the story with vulgarities.
I liked it. The character portrayed true grit.
I had a real hard time with the main character, Alex.
I don’t understand why she has to be such a biatch. It’s as though she ran the department and everyone else was a minion including her captain ad all the guys were enthralled with her. Why?
Especially when she was in a collision and had head trauma she still ran the show. Totally unrealistic.
I finished the first, removed it from my Kindle. I could not take any more of her wanting to punch out this guy or that guy or rip his throat out, etc. just for being who they are.
If you like that kind of woman, that trilogy is for you.
Rather gruesome means of murdering. Not for the faint of heart or squeamish.
I read these awhile ago and did one after another once I found the series. Totally worth the time taken to read.

this fellow is a wonderful creative writer-you need to get past the first couple of chapters of profanity but remember a head trauma character would be full of profanity. This is a very good series.
I love all of the “Alex Troutt Thrillers”. Have read almost all of them. Real page turners with lots of twists. Highly recommend this series.
Enjoyed the stories. The plot keeps you tuned in, even though Alex is a little too super-woman for a real person – but hey, stories are to take you out of reality for a little while. But these thrillers are quick pace and filled with action.
Each book was edge of seat enjoyable
Loved this series! Keeps you asking for more!!
These three books are outstanding. I remained on the edge of my chair throughout. Wonderful!
tough woman character – she bounces back quickly (maybe too quickly to be believable)
I liked the series. The characters were people I would like to get to know. Couldn’t stop reading even at 2:00 am. Will have to buy the rest of the series.
good read
There was much more profane language than was necessary
I’ve recommended John’s series featuring Ivy Nash, but the hero here is Alex Troutt, a female crime fighter who really is kick-ass. If you like well-written thrillers, with ample helpings of suspense and action, grab this 3-book box set right now – it’s free! (But it won’t be for long!)
Enjoyed the book will read them again and highly recommend it. I do not believe though that you can have a conference call on a 200 foot fire ladder if they even have 200 foot fire ladders. Just need to do more research on certain things
