Treason (2005) opens the series with Zack Brewer defending Navy SEAL clients in a courts-martial that leads him into a confrontation with radical Islamic infiltration of the US military. The book reached number one on Amazon’s fiction list and established the formula that runs through nine books: legal drama set against military and geopolitical threats, with faith as a running thread through Brewer’s decision-making.

Don Brown writes from direct professional experience as a former JAG officer, and the courtroom and military procedural elements reflect genuine knowledge of how military law works. The series blends legal thriller conventions with the broader concerns of Christian fiction — loyalty, integrity, and faith under pressure — in a package aimed at readers who want military authenticity with a moral framework.
