Merchants of Venom: Occupation, Redemption, and the New Empire - Paperback

The Kincaid Doctrine - Book One

When a devastating overdose epidemic pushes America to the brink, President Victor Marshall Kincaid unveils The Kincaid Doctrine-a sweeping global campaign to eradicate the drug trade and the corruption that feeds it. Backed by Operation IRONSHIELD, Kincaid's war extends beyond borders, promising peace through power and order through force.

As Lt. Gen. Marcus Talbot commands a new multinational force, humanitarian leader Amina Khurana fights to protect civilians caught in the crossfire. Journalist Claire Jensen risks everything to expose the truths buried beneath official reports, while former trafficker Diego Morales struggles for redemption in the ruins of his homeland.

From Washington's back rooms to the streets of Mexico City and the tribunal halls of The Hague, Merchants of Venom delivers a cinematic and morally charged political thriller about ambition, conscience, and the high cost of security. When justice becomes strategy and mercy a liability, every decision has blood on its hands.

The first novel in The Kincaid Doctrine series, this gripping geopolitical thriller explores how far a nation-and its leaders-will go to win a war that cannot truly be won.
