Overview

Ex-Homicide Detective Frank Langer is a broken man - but he's all that stands in the way of a deadly conspiracy.

Since a mental breakdown put him on medical leave from the squad he was once hand-picked to lead, Frank spends his days drinking and chain-smoking, and his nights waking up screaming from a horrific recurring nightmare.

Until one day, by chance, he stumbles upon the monstrous plot to kidnap children.

When he shows up at the squad with his wild story, the guys pat him on the back and tell him to go home. But after the mother of one of the missing children commits suicide, Frank stamps down his demons and, together with the dead woman's sister Rebecca, plunges into the case.

The clues lead to a shadowy cabal lurking behind one of the richest and most powerful Pharma corporations on the planet. When Frank finally unravels the mystery, the answer is more deadly than he ever imagined, and telling Rebecca would put her life in danger. Soon even she comes to question his sanity.

The world needs to be warned about the treacherous plot. But can Frank stay alive long enough to find someone to buy his story?

About the Author

Jay Allan Storey has traveled the world, passing through many places in the news today, including Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, and the Swat valley in Pakistan. He has worked at an amazing variety of jobs, from cab driver to land surveyor to accordion salesman to software developer.

Jay is the author of two novels, THE ARX, and ELDORADO, a novella, CHOPPER MUSIC, and a number of short stories. A new novel is due late in 2015, and several other projects are in the works. His stories always skirt close to the edge of believability (but hopefully never cross over). He is attracted to characters who are able to break out of their stereotypes (as Jackson Reilly does in CHOPPER MUSIC) and transform themselves.

Jay loves both reading and writing, and both listening to and playing music. He also enjoys cycling, traveling to exotic lands, and working with animals. He's crazy for any sport activity relating to the water, including swimming, surfing, wind-surfing, snorkeling, and scuba diving.

Jay is married and lives in Vancouver, BC, Canada.
