Mexican drug cartel kingpins, enraged by the loss of La Federation's first super drug convoy, plot to assassinate Mexico’s President Vincente Wolf and teach the new American president, George Alexander, some respect.

Presient Alexander and his War Cabinet realize cartels are about to destabilize Mexico and turn it into a narco-state—something the U.S. cannot allow. America and Mexico must develop and implement a plan to destroy the cartels. Alexander establishes the Office of Analysis and Solutions (OAS), a black ops group to resolve politically unresolvable problems. Aware that macho Latino men perceive women as weak-minded, non-threatening playthings, he sends three women to Mexico, the “analysis” element. Women who are not weak-minded, non-threatening playthings. Solution personnel will be drawn from SEALS, Rangers, Special Forces, and Delta.

Alexander’s plans are disrupted when Somali pirates and Islamic terrorists capture an ocean liner transporting teachers, engineers and medical personnel to Saudi Arabia. The pirates want ransom while the jihadists want to take heads.

U.S. forces close the Texas border, and cartels move to Arizona. Mexican pirates attack boaters on a reservoir straddling the Texas/Mexico border. SecWar redeploys his Special Forces teams and a Ranger company to plug new leaks.

Fast and furious action makes Pirates and Cartels a page-turner that will keep you reading well past your bedtime, with an ending that promises more to come in this exciting new series.
