Synopsis
A deadly conspiracy threatens global stability, and only one man can stop it.
Recently retired Navy SEAL and pilot Steve Remington hoped for a quiet life on the island of St. John. But when his tugboat is attacked and he’s left for dead, Remington learns he’s the target of assassins searching for a hidden notebook. This notebook, left behind by a murdered DEA agent, holds details of a sinister plot to detonate a weapon of mass destruction on U.S. soil—and frame a foreign nation to ignite a new conflict.
Determined to uncover the truth, Remington partners with Kelly Phillips, an ex-Marine with a complicated past. Together, they dive into a high-stakes investigation that reveals a network of corruption reaching from rogue operatives to powerful U.S. officials.
With time running out, Remington and Phillips must navigate threats on land and at sea and confront their deepest fears to stay one step ahead of a relentless enemy. Facing a harrowing showdown, they must risk everything to stop an attack that could reshape global alliances and plunge the world into chaos.
Packed with action, suspense, and a hero who won’t quit, The Remington Crucible by Andrew Scott Jackson is a nuclear countdown military thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must-Read Action Thriller
"The Remington Crucible is one of those rare action/thrillers that grabs you from the very first page and refuses to let go. The writing is sharp, cinematic, and incredibly immersive—it's easy to picture every gritty detail as the action unfolds. Both Frank Stodd and Steve Remington feel real and fully formed, which makes the stakes hit even harder. It's a wild ride. Highly recommend if you love smart, high-octane thrillers!"

5.0 out of 5 stars Fast Paced Action with Credible Detail
"The author does a great job of weaving his experiences in the Caribbean with his background as a Naval aviator. Perfect beach read in the style of Stuart Woods or Lawrence Sanders."

5.0 out of 5 stars If You Liked 007...
"Glory be, an enthralling, fast-action novel with a hero in the tradition of James Bond! When President Kennedy revealed that J.B. (007) could transport him from the pressures and worries of his office, Bond became the touchstone for fans of highly trained international agents confronting the powerful, wealthy forces that have no compunctions about the destruction of nations or the deaths of millions as they seek world-domination. When Steve Remington retires to his families now-vacant home on St. Johns in the Virgin Islands, he has something more tranquil in mind than awaking on his newly outfitted boat to an attempt on his life resulting in his wounding, many deaths, and a boat suddenly gathering the bay into her cabins. Returned to shore, now under constant surveillance and learning of threats to his small circle of brave, trustworthy friends throw Steve into action to discover the why of his involvement, which provokes an immediate focus on offing him and his partners to prevent their disrupting the plans of the evil powers behind a potentially devastating international plot.
Like me, many readers may feel transfixed by the excitement and pace, resulting in reading the book from start to finish in one sitting. If so, I encourage you to return to the beginning to savor the dynamics among Steve’s likable circle, to focus on the plotting and stratagems of the diabolical antagonist, and to tranquilly appreciate Remington’s cleverness, equanimity-under-pressure, precise instincts, and his competencies as a boat and plane pilot. I would recommend taking more time, a measured approach, with your first reading. Then, instead of simply recommending The Remington Crucible, you too, may feel tempted to purchase and send the book to friends to establish your early recognition of a talented, new author and his daring alter-ego. This first novel calls out for a series of Steve Remington Adventures. Let’s trust that the author, Andy Jackson, is enthusiastic about a quick return to his writing desk."
