Abstract:
Bad Lieutenant: Sgt. Terence McDonagh of the New Orleans PD has been promoted to lieutenant, thanks to an act of bravery just after Hurricane Katrina. He jumped into the murky, rising waters of a flooded jail to save a prisoner, injured his back in the process, and now he's addicted to painkillers. That's OK, though, because McDonagh is also addicted to every drug on the planet, and helps himself by raiding the evidence room after drug busts. The slaughter of a Senegalese family--parents, grandmother, and two young children--lands in his lap. The prime suspect is drug dealer Big Fate, who causes Big Fear in the locals, so it's going to be almost impossible to find anyone to connect him to the crime. What with his constant search for drugs, his high-maintenance call girl girlfriend, and a father who's drinking himself to death, is it any wonder the Lieutenant's gone bad?

Desert saints: When a flawless assassination of a high-profile target is needed, call on Banks. His Ivy League mind and an arsenal of awesome weaponry make him tough, dangerous and untouchable. But is their cunning killer about to make a mistake in the heat of the desert? To take down his next target, he needs someone to pretend to be his wife. Can Banks keep his eye on the target or will he get caught up with the sexy hitchhiker he "hired" as his wife?

Cyborg soldier: A deputy is taken hostage by a human weapon prototype in order to help prevent a large military group from making these altered humans.

Day zero: The military draft has been reinstated. Three best friends--George, a successful lawyer, Dixon, a tough-as-nails cab driver, and Feller, a writer with a lot of insecurities--are drafted into the Army and given 30 days to report for duty. In that time, the three friends will be forced to confront everything they believe about courage, duty, love, friendship and honor.

Black ops: An elite Marine task force is sent to investigate an American battleship in the Persian Gulf which has fallen silent.

U.S. Seals dead or alive: The hunt is on for the world's most notorious terrorist bomber, Casper. There's only one team that can find and eliminate him - the U.S. SEALs.

Contract killers: A CIA assassin attempts to break out of the contract killing business to try to lead a normal life. But when "the system" tracks her down and frames her for the death of her husband, she embarks on a path of revenge that leads her back into the life she tried so hard to abandon.

Double identity: An American physician working for Doctors Beyond Borders is mistakenly identified as a secret agent by the Russian mob. He becomes entangled in a deadly web of lies and murder.
