Not Exactly Innocent
by Kathryn Judson
Part 2 of the MI5 1/2 series
The MI5 1/2 adventures continue, in this more tightly edited, 2014 edition of Not Exactly Innocent.Triple-O Five and his bride are pulled back into action sooner than planned, when a mad Viking wannabe is found to be hiring and kidnapping experts in bioweapons and missiles. It doesn't make it any easier that one of the scientists is Durand's beloved and naive uncle, who might not quite understand the evil intent of his new patrons.It also doesn't help that much of the investigation must take place in the United States, whether the feds like it or not. Which they don't.Are we having fun yet?This book is a sequel to Not Exactly Dead, and a prequel to Not Exactly Allies, both of which were also rereleased in 2014 in more professionally edited editions. Kathryn Judson was a newspaper reporter and columnist for many years, before switching over to working for a small indie office supply company that morphed into the Uffda-shop, one of the largest indie bookstores in Oregon. (It has since closed.)Almost Hopeless Horse was inspired in part by her horse Yob, who was afraid of cattle. Trouble Pug combines a love of history, time travel stories, and her late husband's fondness for a pug that traveled the country with him in his younger days. Why We Raise Belgian Horses got its start in stories from her husband's Norwegian-American family, including a story his grandfather told of a horse with an unusual phobia. The MI5 1/2 series started off as a spoof of spy novels but ended up being more serious than that in places (although still fairly silly overall). When she got tired of dystopian novels that ignore God and don't seem to understand that conversion is an option for people, she launched into the Smolder series, which also pokes sharp sticks into the evils of racism and social engineering, while still having fun with romance and friendship.Mrs. Judson is an adult convert to Christianity. You will find, if you read her books, that the ones from early in her walk are generally more in line with an Americanized national religion than with the Sermon on the Mount (found in the Bible in Matthew chapters 5 through 7) and other foundational commands of Christ Jesus. It took her a while to realize that some of what she was taught in church and had acquired from pop culture and from reading "Christian" books was often at odds with Jesus and His apostles. Therefore, with many of her books, you'll find American "conservative" values and ways of thinking more than Christian ones. In all cases, you should always compare what is presented against what Christ teaches. When there's a difference, go with Jesus.She has lived most of her life on the rain shadow side of Oregon but has also lived and worked in a number of other states. She also long ago traveled through Central America, and Canada, and to Japan. Also way back when, she toured with Up With People, and as a lowly flunky helped put on a Superbowl halftime show. In her school days, she was active in community theater, both on and off stage. One summer during her newspaper days, she took time off and worked for a summer stock theater company in the Black Hills of South Dakota. In 2017, she asked her church in Idaho to plug her ...

Not Exactly Allies
by Kathryn Judson
Part 3 of the MI5 1/2 series
Triple-O Five and company are finding that the worst enemies a spy can have might be in his own government, even his own agency. His best help, on the other hand, might come from feral street boys in Paris, football players who are tired of being gushed over, and a doctor who has been kicked out of medical practice for offending the PC police. Meanwhile, Durand must also contend with the hazards of fatherhood, not least of which is a daughter who is drawing suitors left and right, including one of his young colleagues who, alas, is a sniper. Not to mention not Catholic. Other than that, he seems to be a nice kid. For a daughter thief. Are we having fun yet? 2014 Revised Edition.

It wasn't supposed to happen. Retirement just wasn't supposed to happen. Richard Hugh, aka Triple-O Five, had more or less planned on dying in the line of duty. But bureaucrats and life intervened. Now Richard must face enemies without the help of the agency. Worse yet, now he must face his past. Are we having fun yet?

Not Exactly Dead
by Kathryn Judson
Part 5 of the MI5 1/2 series
Richard Hugh, aka Triple-O Five of the unsung British agency nicknamed MI5 1/2, is happily making life miserable for bad guys and, when he has time, cultivating a reputation as a lady's man. But then the Americans get the notion that he's been marked for death by a notorious spy killer who has been bumping off spies belonging to an odd mix of nations. This would almost be business as usual, except that the Americans send Emma Chapman over to keep an eye on Hugh, in the hopes of catching the assassin (preferably before he bumps off 0005).Chapman is short, plain, and respectable, and couldn't care less that Hugh is suave and handsome. This is not at all the sort of female he's used to working with.Before long, the Hugh-as-rat-bait hunt for Mighty Planetary Master also involves the French, represented most notably by the fearless and philosophical Leandre Durand, who doesn't mind in the least keeping his own counsel. Kathryn Judson was a newspaper reporter and columnist for many years, before switching over to working for a small indie office supply company that morphed into the Uffda-shop, one of the largest indie bookstores in Oregon.

Not Quite Home
by Kathryn Judson
Part 5 of the MI5 1/2 series
You would think that a lifetime of taking on the bad guys would prepare a man to handle whatever came his way in retirement, now wouldn't you?Think again.When MI5 1/2 pushed Richard Hugh (aka Triple-O Five) into early retirement, he was expected to go from saving the world to merely living in it. Fat chance of that happening. First off, Richard's not the retiring sort. Not really. Secondly, the bad guys are still committing crimes like arson and murder, and framing innocent people along the way. However, when you don't have an agency at your back, or proper authority any more, what's a man to do? And how in the world is a man supposed to cope with all the messy personal problems that can't be shoved aside anymore, now that a man's not working fulltime at saving the world? And how does he cobble together a team, now that he's on his own?Ah, well, this is Richard Hugh, after all. He's a never-say-die sort of British gentleman. So he'll plow ahead, with whatever he can manage to put together, with the fine and philosophical help of friends old and new. Count on it.
