A Sloane Briggs Thriller
WITH COMPLIMENTS,
THE NUN
With Compliments, The Nun is a high-stakes thriller about Sloane Briggs—a former Marine shaped by childhood trauma, hardened by conflict, and exhausted by a lifetime of survival. Seeking silence and healing, she retreats to a remote convent, hoping prayer and solitude will succeed where discipline and force failed. But peace proves fragile. When danger breaches the sanctuary’s stone walls, Sloane is forced to confront the truth she can no longer escape: she was never meant to hide. Stripped of rank and orders, she must decide what it means to fight when the battlefield is sacred, the enemy is ruthless, and the cost of inaction is unthinkable.

Toledo
From the world of the Sloane Briggs Thriller series comes its most intimate, high-stakes mission yet.
After dismantling a global syndicate, former Marine analyst Sloane Briggs is drawn back into the shadow corridors of Central America by a ghost from her past: a disciplined female net controller known only as “Toledo.” What begins as a precision hunt through rain-soaked HF bands and border trails becomes a relentless ground operation, equal parts rescue, reckoning, and redemption.
In Toledo, fans will recognize Sloane’s signature ethos: clean process under fire, zero romance logistics, and the hard math of choosing civilians first. The novel fuses taut SIGINT cat and mouse with visceral jungle fieldcraft, then pivots into the creation of a covert sanctuary, El Puente Lina, built on rules, not heroics. Along the way: green vans and coded nets, disciplined NVIS windows, watchers on ridge roads, and a name Sloane has carried for years, finally given a face.
Expect:
- A pulse‑tight blend of signals intelligence and close-quarters decision making
- A formidable adversary who becomes an ally, and a legacy
- Rescue sequences that move like clockwork under monsoon pressure
- A morally uncompromising blueprint for saving lives outside the system
- Sloane at her most precise, human, and unbreakable
Toledo is a story about lines you hold, and the cost of building something that outlives you. It expands the Sloane Briggs universe with a grounded, unforgettable chapter that will leave readers wanting more.

Sloane Briggs Thriller Series
Sloane Briggs was forged in silence, by discipline earned and choices made when no one else was willing to hold the line. Sloane Briggs is a former Marine intelligence operator who works in the world’s darkest corners, tracking traffickers and criminal networks that prey on the vulnerable. She does not rush or take reckless risks. Every move she makes is careful, thoughtful, and guided by one rule: protect innocent lives at all costs.
Sloane follows clues one step at a time, using signals, records, and patience to build her cases. Her enemies live by chaos, but she defeats them with control and clarity. While the danger around her is constant, her greatest struggle is internal, carrying memories, resisting violence, and choosing restraint when it would be easier to strike.
Sloane Briggs Thriller Series
Sloane Briggs was forged in silence – by discipline earned and choices made when no one else was willing to hold the line.
She moves through the world’s forgotten corridors: covert cells in Central America, trafficking routes through the American Southwest, shadow networks spanning Europe and Africa. A former Marine intelligence operator, Sloane builds her cases methodically: signal by signal, ledger by ledger, child by child. She refuses the shortcuts that compromise innocents, moving with the precision of someone who understands that justice without restraint becomes its own form of violence.
Her adversaries thrive on chaos and human suffering. Sloane dismantles them with clarity and restraint. But the real reckoning is internal: the cost of holding back, the weight of what she remembers, the moral calculus of a trigger she chooses not to pull.
From convent walls where she once sought peace to desert highways marked by missing children, from the ghost of a female voice on an HF radio to the architecture of safe houses built for those the world abandoned, Sloane operates in the margins where compassion and steel become one.
For readers who demand more from their thrillers. This is not a series built on swagger or easy victories. Here, precision matters. Patience matters. And the quiet, relentless determination to protect those no one else will – matters most.
Reader Reviews
Sloane Briggs thought the convent walls would keep the world out. She was wrong. Now, this former Marine must decide: stay in silence, or return to the fight. See why fans are falling in love with a heroine who balances the weight of a warrior’s past with the hope of a peaceful future.
