Book one was fantastic. This is the first book in a long time that I didn't put down until the end; it took me about 7 hours from start to finish. I was totally captivated by Mark Taylor and the fact that he spent 15 months in a military prison but it was really unclear just how or who was instrumental in his release.  Typical military release though without even a "sorry, we screwed up, you are innocent; go home." In the second book “March into hell,” just as in the first book, non stop action with many twists and turns. I think I hoped it would be like the first, but I ended up being shocked. It took me until the middle of the book to see something that I had completely missed in the first book, His personality change. At first it seemed that Mark became childish in his thinking and his reactions. I then realized that he wasn't being childish, he had taken on the persona of a female. I'm sorry to say this really shocked me.I had walked away from the book to eat and while eating it dawned on me what it was, I immediately checked the author's name and knew. The author was a woman who tried to hide the fact by using her initials, M.P., it was confirmed in my mind, she was causing mark to react and think like she would. She should have had more male input, but I don't think she did. All in all, both books were above and beyond many books I read in quality and in substance. I will definitely continue to read her other books if only to see if when she is writing about her male hero, will her thinking prevail. it took me many years to discover that males and females do not think alike, but I appreciate their thinking differences.
