WHEN IT’S PERSONAL

Vengeance Knows No Boundary

Surviving a distinguished career in the NYPD, Detective First Grade Dan Crane, sick and tired of life in the clutter and chaos, has been looking forward to just one thing: Reuniting with Jay, his only brother, and spending his upcoming retirement in the wide-open spaces of Nevada. That dream is shattered when Jay, a radar development scientist employed by a major defense contractor, is deliberately attacked in his Special Access Programs secure laboratory compound.

Plunged into an unthinkable nightmare with one hysterical phone call, Dan, suddenly in the same unwavering crosshairs, has yet another case to solve, this time on his own, with no jurisdiction, no backup, and the Black-Ops perpetrators coming for him.

Convinced he has nothing left to lose, Crane will soon shred the department policy that prevents a detective from working a case WHEN IT'S PERSONAL.

AUTHOR’S NOTE

Threats to our safety and well-being come in all shapes and sizes. They come when we expect them and when we don’t. They come with in-your-face ferocity or with silent surprise. Being aware of one’s surroundings at all times can be the first line of defense. Cops and security experts call this “Situational Awareness.”

Sometimes, however, the danger is more insidious and anything but personal. The Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962 had some people expecting the flash and the end of humanity while their children were instructed to take shelter under the nearest schoolroom desk. We are bombarded relentlessly by attorneys and law firms asking if you’ve taken this medication, if you’ve used that weed killer, or even drank the water. Things that are touted as safe after being approved by the government are later pulled from shelves and taken off the market. Wouldn’t it be nice if someone knew and sounded the alarm before the lives of millions were put at risk?

Join the chase and learn why Jay Crane has been murdered in a top-secret lab before his momentous discovery can be made public. Partner with NYPD Detective Dan Crane, suddenly a target himself, and experience the intensity of a homicide investigation WHEN IT’S PERSONAL.
