Kevin Kluesner Books In Order

Publication Order of Cole Huebsch Books

After a forty-plus-year career saving lives and stamping out illness, Kevin Kluesner set his sights on becoming a bestselling author, creating a thriller novel series set in Wisconsin. His goal was to do for Milwaukee what Robert Crais and his Elvis Cole character had done for LA, what John Sandford and Lucas Davenport had done for the Twin Cities, and what Paul Levine and Jake Lassiter had done for Miami and the Keys. You get the drift.

The series has been acclaimed by professional reviewers from Gannett newspapers, Morris Media, Milwaukee Magazine, and others, and by Amazon readers, where The Killer Sermon, The Killer Speech, and The Killers’ Terms have earned lofty 4.7, 4.8, and 4.9 out of 5 average ratings respectively. It follows the ups and downs of FBI Special Agent Cole Huebsch and reporter Michele Fields as they fight crime and their mutual attraction.

The novels are fast-paced, page turners, but they pack a punch as big as their main protagonist, taking on huge national issues like big pharma, journalistic integrity, vigilantism, human trafficking, and Congressional term limits. “When I read a novel, I want to be entertained, first and foremost,” Kluesner says. “But it’s a huge bonus when I learn something new along the way, something that makes me a better-informed citizen and human being. I bring that to my writing. I will never agendize; I don’t want to tell people what to think. But I have no problem challenging my readers to think.” Kluesner shares a trait with his Agent Huebsch: “We both like craft beers, leaning heavily toward IPAs. It’s safe to say we’d rather be water boarded than drink a lite beer.”
