The Autumn Trent series is a spinoff of Winter Black’s original FBI thriller series. FBI Special Agent Autumn Trent first appeared as a supporting character in the Winter Black books before getting her own series in 2020, starting with Autumn’s Rise. Across 17 books, Trent works a string of cases involving kidnappings, serial killers, and criminal conspiracies.

Each book title follows the pattern “Autumn’s [word],” and the novels are designed to be read in order, as Trent’s personal life and professional standing evolve from one case to the next. The pace of publication has been steady, with multiple books released each year since the series began. Fans of the Winter Black series will recognize returning characters and references to earlier events, while new readers can pick up the Autumn Trent books as a separate entry point into the author’s FBI thriller universe.
