The Fault Lines Series

Publisher: Revell

Price: $1.99 (as of 12/16/2016 at 6:00 PM ET).

  

Reese Clawson's work is mind-bending — literally. Her company specializes in global data analysis for an elite group of industry executives, and now a lucrative government contract is moving her into the realm of cutting-edge intelligence gathering. She is determined to crack the limits of consciousness — and in doing so, the boundaries of secrets and lies. But her experiment crashes as test subjects slide into a coma-like state. Reese is left scrambling to maintain control, drawing three disparate people into the search for answers — an adrenaline-amped thrill junkie with altered brain chemistry, an Italian scientist working on remote-viewing technology, and a math prodigy whose algorithms subvert computer encryption.

Will this piecemeal team prevail when a government operative is sent to investigate? As the threads of perception and reality become tangled and even time itself twists in unexpected directions, one warning remains clear: what you don't know can kill you.

When Sloan Booker's father dies tragically, he has no other option but to give up his job as an FBI agent and take over his family's vehicle restoration business in Oahu, Hawaii. Giving up his badge is difficult but having Homeland Security and his old boss request the use of his house in a stakeout, spying on his Muslim neighbors who they suspect are terrorists, is just too damn much for a man already frazzled. It makes no difference that they've offered him a partner to be in charge of the surveillance … until he meets the gorgeous divorcee.

Special Agent Alia Hawkins might look more like a model than a cop but looks can be deceiving. Not only does she rescue street kids, fights their battles and transports them to safe homes, but since she lived many years in Pakistan and speaks their language, she's a sought after agent. So far, she's kept her personal life and job separate. But when Alia's slimy ex-husband threatens to steal her eight-year-old son, she has no choice but to bring him along on her latest undercover assignment — living with a hotshot, sexy as hell agent as his long lost stepsister. Her life suddenly takes some drastic swerves and she wonders if things will ever slow down.

When a mysterious woman offers him an enormous amount of money to find her lost brother, Hawk knows he should walk away, but, with a flash of gunfire, he gets pulled back in. Surrounded by old enemies and allies, he must face off with a new player planning to flood the market with a lethal drug. This may be the chance for revenge Hawk never thought he'd get.

Barka has no leads, until several days later when unassuming computer technician Julien Lombard comes forward, claiming to have had a premonition of the woman's abduction and murder. The ensuing investigation turns up nothing, however, and Julien is just as skeptical about his intel as the police are. But, after another woman goes missing, Barka decides to take a chance and trust in Julien's gift. Does Julien hold the key to preventing another gruesome crime? Working together, can they find the murderer before he steals another heart?

Years after their failed first mission, the Kasari have returned, bearing irresistible promises while concealing insidious plans to enslave humanity. But not if the Smythes — along with fearless CIA agent turned mercenary Jack Gregory and his partner, Janet Price — can help it. From the world's last stronghold, they take the fight to enemies both earthling and alien — even as their comrades-in-arms join the warrior Koranthians in battling the Kasari on a far-off planet. But the greatest danger lies within Earth itself, where an ancient artifact prepares to summon doom from another world.

But, while Caitlin is studying the trees, someone is watching her, someone who seems to know her every move, someone with access to the most intimate parts of her life. As her stalker grows bolder and more violent, she loses faith in everyone around her — her advisor, her best friend, her former lover … No one is above suspicion, and nowhere is safe.
