Not one, but two thrilling books will be celebrated at this double whammy book launch! It's a free event, and all are welcome.THE SHADOW BROKER (which missed its original launch due to the dreaded pandemic).
2026 and individual freedoms are severely curtailed, and state surveillance is everywhere. State Security has a Watch List, and being on it means that nothing you do or say escapes the authorities, but does the K*ll List really exist? And if it does, how would you know if you were on it? Coded messages on a found burner phone, top-level government corruption and a shadowy mastermind who calls himself The Broker.
In this climate of state control, three unlikely friends start quietly looking for connections and set in motion a deadly game of hide and seek that will change their lives forever. Trying to uncover the truth means risking your life, and nothing is more dangerous than searching for evidence of government corruption.
A MAN CALLED BOX
Sam thought the worst part of living alone was the loneliness. She was wrong.
When a hunted man arrives on her doorstep late one night and asks for sanctuary, she agrees to hide him and to not call the police. The mention of a cabal of corruption is enough to convince her to do what he asks. A decision based on compassion, which will soon change her life, force her to abandon everything and flee to avoid being killed. But hiding and leading a lonely, anonymous life locks Sam into a situation she cannot resolve.
Thomas, searching for his long lost sister, finds a fugitive living alone in the mountains. Two stubborn people surrounded by danger and distrust, in a situation where one misstep will get them killed.
Who can you turn to if even police can’t be trusted? And who is the man called Box?
