Brantley Walker: Off the Books

Brantley Walker has dedicated his life to fighting for his country. Having given 17 years to the US Navy, the last 10 as a SEAL, the mission was the only thing he knew, the only thing that mattered. He never even considered what life would look like after the mission was over. Until he’s forced to. After spending months recovering from career-ending injuries, Brantley finds himself back in his hometown of Coyote Ridge, Texas.

Their first official case as a task force doesn’t take Brantley Walker and Reese Tavoularis far from home. Getting right down to business, the Off the Books Task Force delves into the case of a 15-year-old girl who had gone missing nine years earlier from the same small town the pair grew up in: Coyote Ridge, Texas.  

With the holidays nearing, Brantley Walker and Reese Tavoularis are getting settled, both personally and professionally. For Reese, dealing with Brantley’s about-face regarding the size of the task force is easy. It’s meeting the parents that he’s worried about. On the work front, the Off the Books Task Force has a stack of cold cases that need to be tackled, but two new cases keep them moving across the great state of Texas. One of which turns into a dangerous game of hide and seek.

The members of the Off the Books Task Force are at it again. Brantley Walker and Reese Tavoularis continue to find balance between their personal and professional relationships. And when JJ gets caught up in a plot to abduct the governor’s son, she turns to Baz for help. But Brantley’s keeping a secret, one that affects the future of the entire task force - Governor Greenwood has decided to disband them. Effective immediately.

Travis Walker has been battling dark urges since the day Juliet Prince kidnapped his six-year-old daughter four months ago. Although Kate was returned safely, the woman responsible vanished. When their attempts to find her keep coming up empty, Travis let his need for retribution consume him, and it nearly cost him his relationship with his family. Thanks to help from Gage and Kylie, Travis came back from the brink and passed the case back where it belonged: with the Off the Books Task Force.

The members of the Off the Books Task Force are nearing their one-year anniversary. While they’ve closed several cases, it hasn’t been easy. Despite the fact the governor disbanded the team, they are thriving under Sniper One Security. Now in the private sector, there are new tasks that must be tackled, like bringing on new members. But when a partner in an investment firm goes missing, Governor Greenwood reaches out, and the team uses their combined skills to unravel the mystery. Secrets emerge where the case is concerned, and many more are brought to light within the team.

From New York Times and USA TODAY best-selling author Nicole Edwards comes the seventh installment in her Brantley Walker: Off the Books series, which follows Brantley Walker, Reese Tavoularis, and the rest of the Off the Books Task Force! 

Recently engaged and moving forward, Brantley Walker and Reese Tavoularis are enjoying a bit of downtime with friends and family. But anyone in their line of work knows that sitting idle never lasts long.

With wedding plans underway, Brantley Walker and Reese Tavoularis are attempting to create some balance between work and life. After a busy summer, they’ve finally slowed down enough to take a breather. At least until the hacker extraordinaire—a.k.a. Jessica James—jinxes them. The next thing they know, they’re in New York City, tracking down one of their own. With rocky relationships between task force members on the rise, the mission can only be described as complicated, if not entertaining. But not for everyone. For Reese, bad memories are stirred up, forcing him to face his past.

During the two years since they created the Off the Books Task Force, Brantley Walker and Reese Tavoularis have had their share of difficult cases, but their next one hits close to home. Too close.
