I see this as book one of a series of action/science fiction novels where we get to see the characters evolve through insane circumstances that would break lesser people. The mix of personalities on the team shouldn’t work, but it’s almost a matter of ’opposites attract’ without the attraction part.

This book is outlined and in the process of being written. I’ll be providing new chapters every couple of weeks to show the progress being made.

The world...

In what seemed like a cliché and a forgone conclusion, it was the Swiss who brought peace to the world in 2249. The year 2400 sees a world where people die early at one-twenty-five. Wars are a thing of the not-too-distant past and violent crime at an all-time low.

Enter “The Specialists,” a team of genetic “throwbacks” whose very nature suits them for a life of violence and murder… or the solving of such. Identified during early childhood, the Specialists train from a young age to protect the peace in which they have no part.

A gruesome triple murder–an ambassador, an entertainment executive, and a woman with no identity–in Nueva Los Angeles triggers Specialist Team Gamma’s activation. Commander Abeni McLaren’s first day on the team doesn’t go well with her new, passed-over second, Lt. Commander Capello, or the three Sergeants making up the rest of the team who each have… issues, to say the least.

Abeni and Capello’s investigation into the ambassador and executive send them to the leader of the worldwide Naturalists movement, Florian Ganz, and his shady “assistant” Rick Mann. For the first time, Abeni and Capello agree: Ganz and Mann are neck-deep in whatever the hell is going on. That’s all but confirmed when someone takes control of their auto-cab to kill them.

Tracing a body implant from the ghost leads them to the tip of the iceberg in worldwide conspiracies: an underground criminal association, assassinations, and a political game of dominoes set to bring their defenseless world to its knees.

Working together becomes survival as Gamma team uncovers a global cabal run by Ganz and enforced by Mann. Reputations destroyed by Ganz’s ruthless power plays, Gamma goes on the run to finish what’s become their mission: save their world and stop Ganz by any means necessary.
