Book Description
The sequel to Losers, Inc. Twelve-year-old Julius Zimmerman is the former vice president of the defunct organization Losers, Inc. Ethan Winfield, the former president, no longer feels like a loser. But Julius still does, maybe because his mother thinks of him that way. To "improve" him, Mrs. Zimmerman signs Julius up for a summer course in intensive French and for a part-time job baby-sitting three-year-old Edison Blue. She also sets a summer reading goal for him. Julius doesn't ace the French class and doesn't do the required reading, but he does turn out to have a winning way with kids -- and adults -- and in the end proves to his mother that her criteria for success aren't the only ones.

Book Description
A Special Operations Group Team is sent on a mission. They return without their team leader who is hurt and unable to get into the chopper at the extraction. Twenty-nine days later, he walks out of the tropical forest at a base camp. He returns without memory of anything between the failed extraction and the moment he stumbles into the camp except for hazy nightmares of shadowy figures - Stacker Joe, Willie the Wonk, and Slackman. Four years of intense psychiatric evaluation neither prove nor disprove fears that he was captured, brainwashed, and returned as a potential mole. Allowed to go his way, he buys a gunsmith shop in Wyoming. Two years later, he receives a visitor. Then, the visitor's granddaughter. And J. D. McKennick, is forced back into the black whirlpool of his lost memory. To fight what he finds, his old team is reformed. One is dead, two have medical discharges, and one is at his 'day' job. But new members are added, and Team Blue One Angel Five is reformed. Falcon, Slackman, Angel, Scooter, the Kraut, Bait, and the people around them, must spearhead the fight against the threat to the government and people of the United States.
