The Award Winning Taz Blackwell Series
Meet Taz Blackwell — ex–environmental negotiator, part-time trouble magnet, and full-time reluctant hero. From small-town Virginia to the wild heart of the Amazon, Taz keeps trying to mind his own business and keeps tripping over global conspiracies. In Brooks Yeager’s Taz Blackwell Series — Chilly Winds and Jaguar’s Claw — danger has a way of finding him, no matter how far off the grid he goes. Smart, fast, and full of atmosphere, these thrillers prove that saving the world is never simple — and never quiet.

About the Series
In the Taz Blackwell Series, Brooks Yeager crafts an unlikely hero for our uneasy times. Taz, a former diplomat turned reluctant environmental crusader, drifts between solitude and duty, chasing peace while colliding with power. In Chilly Winds, a quiet island life tangles with global intrigue; in Jaguar’s Claw, the fight moves to the burning Amazon. With lyrical precision and a realist’s bite, Yeager weaves adventure, conscience, and consequence into thrillers that remind us — the planet’s survival is personal.
