Recommended Brandon Fisher FBI Reading Order

To follow the character arc of rookie FBI Special Agent Brandon Fisher and his colleagues in the Behavioral Analysis Unit, you should read the series in chronological order. The chronological order matches the author's intended progression, beginning with the investigation that started it all.

  1. Eleven (Originally published in 2011, re-released in 2016)
  2. Silent Graves (2014)
  3. The Defenseless (2014)
  4. Blue Baby (2015)
  5. Violated (2016)
  6. Remnants (2017)
  7. On the Count of Three (2018)
  8. Past Deeds (2020)
  9. One More Kill (2021)

Understanding the Publication Order Confusions

If you search for the series on retail sites or public catalog databases, you might see Silent Graves (2014) listed before Eleven. This discrepancy exists because Eleven was originally self-published in 2011 and later re-released in 2016 by Hibbert & Stiles Publishing. Rest assured, Eleven is the chronological beginning of Brandon’s journey and the best place to start.

The Amanda Steele Crossover Universe

While Brandon Fisher doesn't have direct spin-offs under his own series banner, Carolyn Arnold has built a shared universe with her Detective Amanda Steele series. The connection starts in Silent Graves, which is set in Dumfries, Virginia, and introduces several characters who later anchor Amanda's books. Furthermore, Brandon Fisher crosses over directly to assist Amanda in the second book of her series, Stolen Daughters.
