Dead in a Week
Andrea Kane
Lauren Pennington is celebrating her junior year abroad when life
comes to a screeching halt. At Munich’s Hofbräuhaus, she engages in an
innocent flirtation with a charming stranger for the length of a drink.
Drink finished, Lauren leaves—only to be snatched from the streets and
thrown into an unmarked van.
Officially, Aidan Deveraux is a
communications expert for one of the largest financial firms in the
world. In his secret life, the former Marine heads the Zermatt Group, a
covert team of military and spy agency operatives that search the data
stream for troubling events in an increasingly troubled world. When his
artificial intelligence system detects Lauren’s kidnapping, Aidan
immediately sees the bigger picture.
Silicon Valley: Lauren’s
father, Vance Pennington, is about to launch a ground-breaking
technology with his company NanoUSA—a technology that the Chinese are
desperate for. No sooner does Aidan arrive on Vance’s doorstep to
explain the situation than the father receives a chilling text message:
hand over the technology or Lauren will be "dead in a week".
In a
globe-spanning chase, from the beer halls of Germany, to the tech
gardens of California, to the skyscrapers of China, and finally the
farmlands of Croatia, Aidan’s team cracks levels of high-tech security
and complex human mystery with a dogged determination. Drawing in
teammates from the Forensic Instincts team (introduced in The Girl Who
Disappeared Twice), the Zermatt Group will uncover the Chinese
businessmen responsible, find the traitors within NanoUSA who are
helping them, and save Lauren from a brutal death.
