Security Is Relative
David Stilley's Private Adventure SERIES
My Most Popular Protagonist - Star of the Special Agent In Charge David Stilley Adventure Series - has left the FBI, but not the allure of international private investigations and high-stakes security. Book One - Security Is Relative - is expected to be available late November 2026. A sneak peek can be found right here 09.20.2026.
About The Beast Within Us
Days after Stilley attends his first execution of a serial killer brought to justice by him and his team at the BAU, evidence that the killer had an invisible partner not only comes to light but the latest killings ignite a firestorm of fear, shock, and confusion! The killer is hiding in plain sight, living and working in a position of the utmost trust, someone unfathomable to everyone until his involvement can no longer be denied. The first edition already received a 4.5 star reception - this latest edition exceeds 4.7 stars and counting.
About The Sleeper Among Us
Special Agent in Charge David Stilley should've been enjoying a Hall of Fame induction. Instead, an old teammate's plea unravels into an international manhunt: a junior associate's phantom past, Interpol's seized bills of lading, and a British logistics front traceable to terrorist arsenals.
Stilley drags his Behavioral Analysis Unit into unfamiliar territory: sleeper agents, cartel connections, and a private security firm with too many secrets. Not to mention - Stilley's conflicted motivations, an old friend's betrayal, and trouble brewing at home.
The story has already earned a 4.7 rating average on Amazon and Goodreads. Anthony Eddolls is becoming recognized as an exciting crime fiction author, as well as psychological thrillers, FBI procedurals, and an audience favorite in those niches.
About Call Out The Dogs
When a string of identical assassinations hits Americans across Europe, a seasoned FBI SAC—torn between family and duty—must stop a professional killer and unmask the clients backing him before the conspiracy topples governments and silences every witness.
Stilley finds himself embroiled in a 'truth is stranger than fiction' conspiracy that could topple the U.S. Administration at the least, trigger global chaos at worst!
But will he pull the pin - or conceal a career ending debacle?
