Temple's Way

In Blackwell Ops 31: Jack Temple, my publisher introduced Jack to the world.Temple's Way is the first installment in the rest of the story, as told to the author.As always, only the more sensitive parts of the story are fictionalized. Everything else is true.As an ace operative for TJ Blackwell and Blackwell Ops, Jack Temple's favorite bit of self-deception is, Hey, I don't pick which nails to hit. I'm only the hammer.But since Jack's first appearance in Blackwell Ops 31, Jack's life has changed. Drastically. Traumatically.As a result, Jack is considering taking his life in a different direction, albeit one still particularly suited to his unique skill set.Will he find a new carpenter to wield the hammer?You needn't fear Jack Temple. He's nice enough and easy enough to get along with if you don't come up on TJ's radar. And if you don't do something stupid and incur Jack's wrath directly.If you don't believe me, ask the members of the Betelmann Group, and—Oh. No, you'd better not. Jack might misread any contact to mean you're part of the group. That would be a mistake.  Come along on this real-life thrill ride. Can you keep up with Jack Temple? Or in the alternative, can you avoid him?
