## Simon Fisk Thrillers

Corleone's fourth novel Good As Gone is an international thriller that introduces former U.S. Marshal Simon Fisk, a private contractor who specializes in retrieving children abducted by their estranged parents and taken overseas to avoid U.S. custody laws. Haunted by his own daughter's disappearance a decade earlier, Simon Fisk refuses to take cases involving “stranger abductions,” until a French police lieutenant presents Simon with an ultimatum: spend years in a French prison in connection with an earlier case, or help to find a young American girl named Lindsay Sorkin, who was recently abducted from her parents’ hotel room in Paris.

The Simon Fisk series also includes Payoff, Gone Cold, and Beyond Gone.

Other books in the series include The Janson Command and The Janson Option, both written by Paul Garrison.
