ABOUT THE BOOK
He’s gone behind enemy lines countless times before. But this time, he’s going alone.
Foster Quinn is more than a former Force Recon Marine. He’s a husband. A father. A faithful brother to his teammates. When one of them is killed during a high-risk operation to track down a dangerous arms dealer, Foster struggles to balance his roles as a dedicated family man and an elite warrior. Despite his inner demons—or maybe because of them—Foster can’t walk away from his brothers.
Then he gets the chance to step in where his best friend left off, assuming a cover identity in Iran that will get him close to the arms dealer and pave the way for a critical mission. On his own in a new country, he must carefully choose who to trust. An Iranian taxi driver. An American hunter. A British oil executive. One wrong move could spell disaster. Not just for the mission, but for Foster.
The clock is ticking. A team of tier-one warriors is set to plummet through the night sky in enemy territory. They’ve trained for this. But their success hinges on just one man.

Editorial Reviews:
-
Silent Horizons is more than just a military thriller; it’s an unflinching look at the clandestine warriors who operate in the most dangerous environments, setting the stage for the battles that follow. Robichaux and Stewart deliver a raw, intense, and authentic experience that pulls back the curtain on a world most will never see. A read you will not forget! Jack Carr, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Red Sky Mourning
Silent Horizons gives readers a behind-the-scenes look at the dark side of special operations and the toll it takes on those who navigate the battlefields of spiritual and mortal warfare. A riveting thriller you won’t want to put down! Shawn Ryan, former US Navy SEAL, CIA contractor, and host of The Shawn Ryan Show
Propulsive and inspiring! Robichaux and Stewart clearly know firsthand the world of special operations and the toll it can take on those who serve. They also know how to keep you turning the pages! Absolutely fantastic storytelling. Marc Cameron, New York Times bestselling author of Bad River and Tom Clancy Red Winter
Balancing commitment to family and commitment to the mission is a duty made harder by the secrecy surrounding clandestine operations and the work that feeds it. In Silent Horizons, Robichaux and Stewart show what reaches deep into the soul of every operator and reveal what many never get to say about the missions of elite operators. Marcus Luttrell, US Navy SEAL (Retired) and author of the New York Times bestseller Lone Survivor
Real experience, valuable lessons, and exhilarating moments are captured in the pages of Silent Horizons. It s uniquely told through the lens of fiction by Robichaux and Stewart, men who have survived the pinnacle of military operations. But this is more than just a good story; it s an opportunity to see into the lives of those who chose sacrifice over peace and comfort. Chadd Wright, former US Navy SEAL, ultrarunner, and founder of the Three of Seven Project
The tension, the terminology, the thrills, the tradecraft―this is as real as secret intel ops get. Chad and Jack have opened a door to a world only a select few get to see. You won’t be able to stop turning pages. Andrew Bustamante, former CIA intelligence officer and founder of EverydaySpy
If you’re looking for a military thriller that strips away the gloss and glamour, Silent Horizons will feel like an intense debriefing from a covert mission. There are few men, and fewer authors, who have walked in those shoes, and the authenticity is undeniable. This is what it’s really like when you’re operating behind enemy lines and carrying the weight of family and unspoken duty on your shoulders. Andy Stumpf, US Navy SEAL (Retired) and host of the Cleared Hot podcast
Silent Horizons is an amazing, heart-pounding thriller, but it’s so much more. It’s a deep dive into the personal battles we fight when the mission ends and the reality of life as a husband, father, son, brother, and teammate kicks in. I still often miss the relentless focus and comradery of a career in special operations, and this novel really tells the whole story.
Jason Redman, US Navy SEAL (Retired), New York Times bestselling author of The Trident and Overcome
Silent Horizons is a high-octane thriller that plunges readers into the gritty, dangerous world of special operations with breathtaking authenticity. Foster Quinn isn’t just another action hero―he’s a man grappling with loss, loyalty, and the weight of responsibility, making him as emotionally compelling as he is tactical. If you’re looking for a gripping military thriller that offers both emotional depth and tactical brilliance, this is it. Fans of Brad Thor and Mark Greaney will love this book! Ryan Steck, The Real Book Spy and author of Gone Dark
This story is brimming with authenticity and a jet-fueled pace. Robichaux and Stewart crushed it with Silent Horizons. I can t wait to see what these two write next. Connor Sullivan, acclaimed author of Wolf Trap
Silent Horizons is a gut-punch of a thriller. Yes, it’s an adrenaline rush of authentic action and suspense that takes us inside the secret world of special operations, but Robichaux and Stewart have also managed something much deeper (and more difficult): an exploration of the warrior spirit, the meaning of honor, and the costs borne by those who serve. Force Recon Marine Foster Quinn is the real deal. David McCloskey, former CIA analyst and author of The Seventh Floor
Silent Horizons captures the unrelenting intensity of covert operations while honoring the quiet struggles that follow. Robichaux and Stewart have crafted a story that resonates deeply with anyone who’s operated in the shadows. This is fiction, but it hits close to home for those of us who have lived it. Sarah Adams, Former CIA targeting officer and author of Benghazi: Know Thy Enemy
Silent Horizons is an inspiring, fearless look at the unsung heroes of covert warfare. It takes you inside the missions but also into the hearts of the men who have to leave it all behind both when they deploy and again when they come home. Mark Smith, CEO of Smith & Wesson
ABOUT CHAD
Chad's remarkable journey is a testament to his unwavering dedication to serving those in need. A USMC Force Recon Veteran and DoD Contractor, Chad served eight deployments to Afghanistan as part of a Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC) Task Force. However, his story goes far beyond his experiences on the battlefield; it's a narrative of resilience, redemption, and a mission to serve those in need. After the battlefields of combat Chad faced the battle at home and a war within, including the haunting specter of PTSD, anxiety, and depression nearly becoming another veteran suicide statistic. Yet, through the grace of God and amazing support of friends and family, Chad found restoration, hope, and new purpose. That purpose led to a deep burden on his heart to pay it forward, manifesting in the founding of the Mighty Oaks Foundation, a leading non-profit organization that has become a beacon of hope, providing faith-based recovery and resiliency programs to the military and first responder communities worldwide. He has shared his insights and experiences with over 500,000 active-duty troops and led life-saving programs for over 5,000 active military and veterans at Mighty Oaks Ranches nationwide. His expertise in solutions to both resiliency and PTSD is widely recognized, with Chad advising at the highest levels of government such as the former Presidential Administration, Congress, the VA, and the DoD. His devotion to the cause is further exemplified through his position as Chairman of a White House Veterans Coalition. But Chad's compassion and willingness to serve knows no bounds. He is also the Co-Founder of multiple non-profit coalitions and organizations focused on evacuating and recovering Americans and vulnerable people groups. In 2021, Chad notably led the effort to rescue Americans, our allies, and vulnerable individuals stranded during the US withdrawal of Afghanistan. What began as a personal quest to rescue a long-time friend and Afghan interpreter evolved into a full-fledged humanitarian operation. Under Chad's leadership, he and his team have successfully evacuated over 17,000 people from the hands of the Taliban. Since Afghanistan Chad has continued to organize and lead humanitarian efforts around the world to include his efforts to evacuate and provide support to those impacted in warzones like Ukraine.
