Ayda Khoury's first job out of college is as a SIGINT spy for the National Security Agency. She even gets to work signals assurance for nuclear negotiations with Iran--just in time for the Snowden revelations to send the Agency looking for media scapegoats. 

When Anonymous doxxes Ayda as one of the spies who participated in the domestic collections program, a mysterious intelligence contractor offers her the operation of a lifetime: Go undercover to find captured spy Alex Hart, by pretending to flee the US and defect to his captors: legendary Iranian proxies the Party of God. 

Now, out in the field for the first time and branded a defector by her own country, Ayda must rescue Hart and herself before the Iranian negotiations go down in flames. But can she trust her new handlers?

"Why did it end terribly?" His jaw clenched while contemplating whether to tell me or not "Because I was distracted." I raised an eyebrow in confusion "Distracted by what?" He looked at me directly in the eyes before answering, "You." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Avery is beautiful, carefree and outspoken. Well, she used to be. She used to thrive on adrenaline and the only way she could fulfil that need was by riding her motorcycle. Avery hasn't exactly lived the best life. With a violent ex-boyfriend, her father deserting them at a young age and her mum constantly high alongside her new husband, Avery and her sister Alena have grown up in a messy and violent environment. Determined to give her sister a proper upbringing, they escape to a new town and start a new life together, giving up on everything she loved in the process. Afraid of her past coming back to haunt her, she refuses to let anyone into her life. Her only focus is to look after her sister and get through senior year. That is until she meets Jaxon Asher who comes crashing into her life, popular amongst his peers who is also well known in the racing scene. Avery is convinced he is like every other man who's crossed paths with her.

96 mga parte Kumpleto
Ellie is a soldier in a world without governments. A generation ago, a series of financial crises caused most of the world’s governments to collapse, and left many of the people in those countries in terrible personal debt. Since then, the worst debtor nations have been under military occupation by the troops of the debt recovery corporations, and the worst debtor of all is Měi-guó, the old United States. Ellie is serving in the Afghan Police Action when she receives bad news from home. She is told the daughter she hasn’t seen in years is dead. She flies home from war, upset, to do what needs to be done, but once there she finds out all is not as it seems. Ellie’s daughter is alive and unhurt. She is being held by of one of the many debt-recovery corporations. Held, for leverage, to make Ellie do the corporation a favour. Ellie’s daughter will be returned unharmed if Ellie does as they wish. The son of a company director is lost somewhere in the wilderness of post-debt-restructuring America, and hasn't been seen for three days. The company wants Ellie to go and find the kid, and Ellie doesn't know if she can. The one rule she's stuck to all her working life is to never to go to America, but now she might have to. She will have to, if she wants to save the daughter she hasn't seen in years. This is fairly dark and gritty near-future dystopian SF. ----- Debt Collectors War is now on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00QZG1RHI/ Also on iTunes and B&N and other places. Just if that's easier to read that way! But please don't feel obliged or anything, and thank you for looking -----
Quantum Deception ni EnigmaExplorers
8 parte Kumpleto
In a world where reality is negotiable and the future is a probability wave, one woman holds the key to humanity's survival-or its destruction. Meet Eve Thorne: MI6's top quantum spy, a master of parallel possibilities, and now, the reluctant guardian of the multiverse. When a routine mission uncovers "Project Oracle," a shadowy initiative with the power to predict-and control-the future, Eve is thrust into a high-stakes game of multiversal chess. With the enigmatic Puppeteer pulling strings from the shadows and realities collapsing around her, Eve must navigate a labyrinth of quantum deception where every choice splits the timeline and every ally could be an enemy in disguise. Joined by brilliant physicist Dr. Amelia Zhao, charming CIA operative Gabriel Stone, and a host of unexpected allies from across the quantum divide, Eve races against time-and probability itself-to unravel a conspiracy that threatens not just our world, but every possible version of it. "Quantum Deception" fuses cutting-edge physics with heart-pounding espionage, taking readers on a mind-bending journey through parallel worlds, each fraught with danger and possibility. As the lines between friend and foe, reality and illusion blur, one question remains: In a universe of infinite possibilities, can free will survive? Dive into a reality-warping adventure that will challenge your perceptions, quicken your pulse, and leave you questioning the very nature of existence. "Quantum Deception"-where the observer effect is a weapon, Schrödinger's cat is a state secret, and the fate of all possible worlds hangs in the balance. Are you ready to collapse the wave function?

Guns, revenge and buildings to bomb, what could go wrong? ✮ He came in, gun held out in front of him in one hand while the other was resting on his hip where a sharp dagger gleamed in the light. "Come on out little girl, why not make this easier for both of us. The agency you ran away from just want to have a little talk, that's all." She scoffed internally. Yeah right. Then the footsteps ceased. She peeked to the right, then to the left. Neither direction showed any sign of the intruder. She looked up in front of her and gasped, the glint of steel and smell of death as overwhelming as it was adrenaline inducing, exciting. "Boo." ✮ Murder, accidents, assassinations. Call it what you will, it's all the same, all has the same life breaking, mind shattering consequences - be it for the victim or the bystander. It had shaped Alex in a way no one should be. Broken down and rebuilt into the perfect soldier, one who had the power to change the world, to fight battles that would either make or break the carefully constructed vision we all live in. The only small, minute, really unimportant detail - it's pretty hard to get into a government classified site when you're 15 years old and have a rag-tag team of double-crossing back-stabbers behind you. Not to mention the threat of a world war and ghost hanging above your head. Armed with sarcasm, wit, and a hell of a lot of aggressive intentions, it won't be too long till a sticky situation is all that's ahead of you. Sometimes, running head-first into a situation isn't the best idea. Instead, you gotta play a game. A deadly game where either you have all the pieces on the board, or you have nothing. [previously known as Espionage: double-cross] Thanks for reading :)

Computer programming had always come naturally, but being an employee never suited him. So he tried entrepreneurship instead. After making a series of embarrassing blunders, David finally hit on a startup idea that stuck: encrypted chat.

Shawn Douglas worked with eight different presidents, preventing twenty assassination attempts, forty-three terrorist plots and two bullets.

In a race to unravel the conspiracy, Shawn and David both have to make some difficult decisions. Will Shawn stop the terrorists in time? Will David be able to navigate his startup out of a crisis and keep his entrepreneurial dream alive? Or will fate deal them both a crushing hand? Read the book to find out.
