The Cain File (The Agency Series Book 1) (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

The Quito assignment was meant to be a milk run for Special Agent Maggie de la Cruz: just hand over the two-million-dollar payoff and get the signatures of a corrupt oil minister and two oil-company bigwigs. Then stand back while the arrests are made. But that's not quite how things play out. When the sting is sabotaged and Minister Beltran wants the two million anyway, Maggie says no. Bullets fly. And Maggie has to run. Back home in the U.S., licking her wounds, Maggie learns that Minister Beltran has just been kidnapped by a deadly eco-terrorist group protecting the Amazon jungle from oil drilling. The Agency's covert-operations section needs to send Maggie back to South America, along with Field Agent John Rae Hutchens, to rescue Beltran for, ironically, another two million. Another milk run? Maybe--if everyone involved doesn't have a secret agenda. Events continue to go off-kilter: the suspicious detainment of a field agent at Bogotá International, leaving Maggie on her own; terrorists who seem more interested in the payoff money than the cause; case handlers with shadowy links that can't be easily explained; and worse. But Agent de la Cruz must deal with it. Any way she can.

Autor

Born in the wilds of San Francisco, with its rich literary history and public transport system teeming with characters suitable for crime novels, the stage was set for Max Tomlinson to become a writer.

His work to date includes SENDERO (listed as one of the top 100 Indie novels of 2012 by Kirkus), WHO SINGS TO THE DEAD, LETHAL DISPATCH, THE CAIN FILE (selected by Amazon's Kindle Scout program) and the follow-up THE DARKNET FILE. A new three-book mystery series set in 1970s San Francisco debuted in 2019 with Oceanview Publishing. The first book, VANISHING IN THE HAIGHT, features ex-con Colleen Hayes, on the hunt for her long-lost daughter. TIE DIE, book #2, releases August 2020.

Max also writes under the pen name "Max Radin" when he's not being purely mysterious or suspenseful. Check out Rock 'n' Roll Vampire for his comedy debut.

He can also be seen walking through San Francisco with a shelter-mix named Floyd, who stops and stares at headlights as they pass by at night. If only Floyd could talk. On second thoughts, maybe not.
