Franklin Michaels has a reputation as one of the world’s best cat burglars and a smooth-talking ladies man who until now lived a life for fast money and faster women; but when U.S. government agents finally caught up with him, they revealed to him that his real name is Jet James, the unknown great-grandson of the infamous bank robber, Jesse James. They also offered him amnesty from prison under the condition that he becomes their covert agent. Having no choice, Franklin accepted.

        Now with his three beautiful assistants: July, a sharp-shooting ex-mobster and weapons expert; Suzuki, a super-powered ninja warrior; and Francine, a bookish former accountant, Jet travels the world, “stealing” financial assets from various criminal organizations in order to bring them to justice.

        But unknown to Jet and his gang, they are constantly pursued by international crime syndicate Black Tiger and their leader, Shan Yu Fu Khan, who is obsessed with the jet-set rogue, and has a secret past with July. They also have to stay one step ahead of Jet’s former partner turned rival, Rolly Russell and his own gang of thieves.

Armed with his charm, his skills, an arsenal of gadgets, and his trusty Ruger 9mm, Jet searches for adventure and mystery wherever the action is.

·    Jet James – Franklin Davis Michaels was a jet-setting professional cat burglar living life on the edge. All his life, he lived a lifestyle filled with martinis and supermodels. He also was on the run from several major crime syndicates for stealing their precious resources. Then a mysterious woman approached him telling him that his grandmother was the love child of infamous Wild West legend Jesse James. After months of studying and investigating his ancestry, Franklin discovered the shocking truth and decided that there’s more to life than fast cars and fast women. He decided to start a thief-for-hire business under his pen name, Jet James, whose clients recruited him to return valuables taken away from them by dangerous criminals. He also opens a paranormal investigations business for some extra cash. Jet is a bit selfish and at times perverted when it comes to women, despite brandishing himself as a ladies man, but is always professional on the job. He has a reputation for being fearless and adventure seeking, but sometimes on occasion, he goofs up and goes little wacky at the wrong timing. Jet has professional courtesy and respect for his colleagues July, Suzuki and Francine, although July is constantly complaining of his lust towards her and she uses karate chop and tasers to snap him back to reality. He likes to show up in his trademark double-breasted suit and black turtleneck sweater. His favorite hobbies are gambling and playing backgammon. His favorite food is the most expensive lobster her can find. Jet is an experienced cat burglar with an expertise in safecracking and computer hacking. He is a black belt in karate and judo.
