Books By Brad Taylor
The Taskforce and Mossad join forces against a fanatical organisation in this action-fuelled thriller from New York Times bestseller and former special forces officer, Brad Taylor.
When the former head of Israeli intelligence is killed on a paragliding trip, it's the latest in a series of 'accidental' deaths befalling key members of the American and Israeli governments. Mossad bring in terrorist hunters Aaron and Shoshana to investigate – and they know just who to call.
Taskforce operator Pike Logan has been out of action for too long, so he jumps at the chance to take on the mission. An Iranian-funded militia group has claimed responsibility for the deaths. But something doesn't add up. Logan will have to wade deep into the complex religious and political currents of the region – and his findings could have disastrous consequences for the entire world...

THEY'RE THE U.S. GOVERNMENT'S SECRET WEAPON.
They call them the Taskforce. Designed to operate outside the bounds of law, trained to exist on the ragged edge of human capability, their existence is as essential as it is illegal. Recruited from top operators in the intelligence spheres and led by ex-Special Forces Operator Pike Logan, they are apex predators. An unrivalled hunting machine, until now.
On a counter-terrorist mission in the triple frontier – the lawless border region where Argentina, Brazil, and Paraguay join – the Taskforce meets its match. And then the unthinkable happens, Logan's unit goes missing. As he heads to Brazil to investigate, Logan runs headlong into a crew of Russian assassins. Forged in combat, the Russians are the Taskforce's equal... but Logan's on the warpath. He'll do whatever it takes to save his team.

An enemy is dangerous. A traitor is lethal.
They call them the Taskforce. Designed to operate outside the bounds of law, trained to exist on the ragged edge of human capability, their existence is as essential as it is illegal. Recruited from top operators in the intelligence spheres and led by ex-Special Forces Operator Pike Logan, they're a formidable unit. Prepared for anything.
And they need to be. Whilst aiding an ex-Taskforce member on the run from Chinese agents, Logan uncovers a plan to bait Taiwan into all-out war by destabilizing their government and manipulating their artificial intelligence controlled defence system.
With the threat of conflict reaching boiling point, Logan alone realises that all is not what it seems. For a man used to confronting his enemy in close-quarters combat, he faces a dilemma: how do you defeat an enemy that you can't see?
Read the latest book in the electrifying Taskforce thrillers from New York Times bestselling author and former Special Forces Officer Brad Taylor. Perfect for fans of Lee Child, Vince Flynn and Jack Ryan.

They're the US Government's secret weapon.
They call them the Taskforce. Designed to operate outside the bounds of law, trained to exist on the ragged edge of human capability, their existence is as essential as it is illegal. Recruited from the top operators in the intelligence and special forces spheres, they are led by ex-Special Forces Operator Pike Logan and his protégé, academic turned skilled operator, Jennifer Cahill.
Threats never cease; the Taskforce never rests.
Written by an ex-special forces operator, the Taskforce books are contemporary, realistic and authentic. On a global stage, the Taskforce team must counter cyber-threats, bio-weapons, assassins, rogue operators, narcotic cartels, coups, kidnappers and political conspiracies.
Collected in a single volume for the first time, read the first six Taskforce novels:
ONE ROUGH MAN
The Taskforce reinstates their dismissed operator, Pike Logan, with one chance to redeem himself: find an unknown enemy, with an unknown target in an unknown location.
ALL NECESSARY FORCE
The Taskforce faces an impossible decision: how to prevent a bomb detonating in the US, the one country it cannot operate in.
ENEMY OF MINE
Unless the Taskforce eliminates a professional killer, the American envoy responsible for a treaty between Israel and Palestine will be assassinated.
THE WIDOW'S STRIKE
The Taskforce confronts the Black Widows – female suicide terrorists – in Thailand, who threaten to unleash a genetically manipulated virus.
THE POLARIS PROTOCOL
The Taskforce infiltrates a Mexican drug cartel who are exploiting a GPS hack capable of bringing the world to a standstill.
DAYS OF RAGE
The Taskforce must neutralise a weapon of mass destruction that Russia has supplied to Islamic fundamentalists.

This danger is far greater than a single attack.
The Taskforce – a highly clandestine Special Forces unit – is on edge. Tensions are boiling over between the East and the West. One strike forces nations to start taking sides and seeking revenge.
Only the Taskforce knows the escalation was a false flag attack. What they don't know is who was responsible. They're in a race to uncover the culprit before the point of no return, before the start of WW3.

Find her before anyone else does.
The Taskforce – a highly clandestine Special Forces unit – discovers a deadly substance. North Korea plans to sell 'Red Mercury' to the Syrian regime. The Taskforce can't let that happen.
Yet no one expected a young Syrian pickpocket to steal the key to the whole conspiracy. Everyone is after the girl, including Taskforce operator Pike Logan. He has to find Amena first so that her life, and the lives of millions, can be spared.

You'll never find him.
The Taskforce – a highly clandestine Special Forces unit – weren't meant to get involved. The ex-Mossad agent, Aaron Bergman, has gone missing. Even if it goes against the Taskforce's direct orders, Pike Logan is determined to locate his friend.
Yet Aaron's disappearance is part of something much larger. Soon the Taskforce is on a collision course with a ruthless military coup in Africa. Now Logan must choose: save Aaron or serve the Taskforce.

One secret can destroy everything.
The US brokered an uncertain peace between Israel and Palestine. The American envoy sent to solidify the treaty was almost killed. Now the Taskforce – a highly classified Special Forces unit – devotes every resource to protect the envoy's life.
Pike Logan tracks the assassin through the Middle East, but there's a problem closer to home. An American citizen hides a secret that could bring everything down, including Logan and the entire Taskforce.

An attack is imminent.
The Taskforce – a highly classified Special Forces unit – is left reeling. One of their own has been killed in action. Another is barely alive. There's only one option left...
The Taskforce recruits Pike Logan, an unstable operator with an agenda of his own, when more disaster strikes. A weapon of unthinkable power heads to the US. The one area the Taskforce cannot operate in. Will their home turf be the one place the Taskforce is forbidden to save?
