Where Sports Meet Secrets—and Heroes Are Made the Hard Way.

Explore three gripping thrillers that dive into corruption, justice, and the human fight to do what’s right

—even when the odds are rigged.


The Fix

The Final Four was supposed to save their ratings. Instead, it might cost them everything.

Description:
Fixing the NCAA Final Four should’ve been as easy as pushing a pimp off a bridge—at least, that’s what the Mob thought. But they didn’t count on Mike Kramer, an unknown point guard from a nowhere town in Kentucky, with grit in his heart and everything to prove.

The World Broadcasting Company (WBC), holder of the NCAA’s precious broadcast rights, is watching its ratings spiral. With Cinderella teams like Austin Peay hogging the spotlight, sportswriters have started calling it The Final Bore. The execs at WBC need a miracle—or a Mob connection.

Their solution? Rig the tournament so the four teams with the biggest fanbases make it to the Final Four. Enter The Fix.

But as egos, money, and reputations collide, one small-town player could bring the whole operation crashing down.

Themes: Sports corruption • Underdog story • Media manipulation • Grit vs. greed


The Violation

They promised to protect him. They sent him home in a coffin.

Description:
Ace Cleveland’s little brother is dead. Another casualty in a college sports system that profits off young athletes—then buries the truth when their bodies break.

What was once whispered is now undeniable: steroids are being used, and they’re killing players. Everyone knows—coaches, broadcasters, even the universities themselves. And no one is doing a damn thing about it.

Ace, once a golden boy of the game, is now a man with nothing left to lose. They’ve taken his brother, burned his home, shot his dog, threatened his job—and when his wife walked out, the last piece of him went with her.

Now, all that's left is fire.

In a world where the truth is buried under contracts and silence, Ace is about to dig it up—with blood, sweat, and fury.

Themes: College sports corruption • Grief & vengeance • Exposing systemic abuse • Emotional suspense

The Games

One athlete. One secret. The world is coming for both.

Description:
Russia is done waiting. No longer a global superpower, its officials arrive at the 2002 Salt Lake City Winter Olympics with one mission: steal a powerful secret hidden in the mountains of Utah—one that could reshape humanity.

Discovered by a disgraced scientist and former Olympic gold medalist, the secret? Human cloning. And with it, the ability to recreate the greatest world leaders... while eliminating God from the equation.

But their plan didn’t account for Dee Dee Daniels.

A gritty, underestimated biathlete with a point to prove after the 1998 Nagano Games, Dee Dee earns a last-minute Olympic spot after a doping scandal knocks out another competitor. Her goal was simple: redemption. But when she unknowingly carries the cloning formula around her neck as a good luck charm, she becomes the target of global powers ready to kill for control.

Now, with the help of the alcoholic scientist who started it all, Dee Dee is in a race far bigger than the Olympics—one that could cost her everything.

Themes: Olympic redemption • International espionage • Science meets faith • Women-led action thriller
