"The Demeter Code by Russell Brooks is a lightning-paced thriller shining light into the shadowy world of corporate and international espionage."-Robert Blake Whitehill, Author/Screenwriter of The Ben Blackshaw Series
"Whew! This intriguing bio-terrorism thriller becomes horrifying, just because of the premise upon which the story is based." -Glenda Bixler, Book Reviewer.
When two American embassies in northern Africa are bombed, CIA operatives, Ridley Fox and Nita Parris, are assigned to track down the perpetrators. However, when their top asset is killed in a failed op, the agents suspect that there may be a new threat. Their search for the truth puts them on a collision course with a powerful multinational-which will go to extreme lengths to bury its criminal activities. However, the agents soon learn that someone with a personal vendetta against that company not only knows their secrets, but will expose them in a way that could result in the largest single-day attack against America.
