Welcome to the World of Mendacity

Where truth is a weapon, loyalty is tested, and the line between ally and enemy disappears in the shadows.

The Mendacity series blends real-world experience with gripping military fiction, following Special Forces operator Brayden Smith as he uncovers a growing web of corruption that stretches from the drug wars of South America to the battlefields of Afghanistan and into the shadows of U.S. intelligence.

In Mendacity: America’s Best Are Secretly Dwelling Among You, Brayden begins to question the mission he has devoted himself to as the war on drugs exposes a world where corruption reaches far beyond the cartels and the distinction between those enforcing the law and those exploiting it becomes increasingly difficult to see.

In Mendacity Part 2: The Seeds of Corruption, the scope of that world expands after 9/11. The global drug trade collides with the war on terror, pulling Brayden deeper into covert operations, hidden alliances, and a system where the enemies he has been hunting may be connected to the very institutions he has trusted.

Coming soon, Mendacity Part 3: The Fourth Pillar pushes the series into even more dangerous territory. The consequences of past decisions begin to surface as fractured loyalties, buried secrets, and a growing threat force familiar allies into unfamiliar roles. What began as a fight against corruption has become something much larger, and exposing the truth may carry consequences no one is prepared for.

Across three books, Brayden’s journey becomes more than a search for the enemy. It becomes a reckoning with loyalty, power, morality, and the personal cost of discovering that the truth is rarely as simple as the mission.

Some battles are fought in the open. Others remain buried for decades.
