Ames first book in The Jack Reacher Cases is called A Hard Man to Forget. The book follows former FBI agent Lauren Pauling who met Reacher in The Hard Way, the 10th Reacher book. This book fast forwards to when Pauling is working as a private investigator in New York. She receives a letter one day that has Recher’s name and phone number on it. When she calls it, a woman answers and she tells of her husband who has gone missing. The woman has no idea who Reacher is and didn’t contact Pauling herself, but is glad to get some help in the matter. Pauling starts to investigate and brings in a former special ops soldier named Michael Tallon. Together they investigate the case and find that the woman is now being hunted by the same men who took her husband.

Dead Wood is the first book in the John Rockne series. This book introduces us to the disgraced ex-cop John Rockne who is now working as a P.I. in Grosse Pointe, Michigan. A woman has been murdered and Rockne is brought in to find the killer which soon puts him in the cross-hairs of a violent ex-con.
