A Sci-Fi/Genetic Engineering Cautionary Tale

Thank you to Elk Lake's own Derinda Babcock & Deb Haggerty for the cover. 

If you didn't know, you know now!   

Is viral splicing real? Of course it is, and we have many medications to prove it and biological weapons that have been long banned.

 

Are scientists and politicians stupid enough to think they can manage these bioweapons? Of course they are, and they have proven human arrogance throughout the eras.

 

Does the military get involved in promoting or stopping bioweapons? Absolutely, and to their own risk and sacrifice.

 

Do soldiers protect scientists at risk?

Yes, but whether they develop more than a professional relationship is up to one’s imagination.

Cheyenne looks so sweet. Almost angelic. Scott has no idea.

Scott Walker. A man who knows violence. Cross him? Don't try it. He's a dangerous man with skills you don't want to see up close. Now he's her protection duty *and she's having none of his malarkey. But she's not the shy, retiring type. Oh, yeah. Between combat and Cheyenne, this should go well. 

But then again ... who is this woman?

Who carries an Obake for an EDC?? A military operative or a Dalton? 

Cheyenne, of course. Unfortunately for her, he's got that part figured out. But not the Glock.

Cheyenne Keyes. A microbiologist who suspects a number of people (with good reason). But never underestimate an Oklahoman with two PhD's, the first in Microbiolgy, and the second?

 

A PhD in "Oh, I don't think so." It's in her Dalton blood. Scott doesn't stand a chance. But there's a problem. She fears only one thing: storms. And one is coming.

 For many of us, writing is our life. Our career. Read a book and please leave a review!
