Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ORIGINAL TRADE PAPERBACK. From two time Shamus Award winner Brendan DuBois comes a terrifying and original tale of a world populated mostly by teens, who are fighting to save their lives . . . and the future of planet Earth. A decade ago, the alien Creepers came to Earth, dropping asteroids to drown our coastal cities, detonating nuclear weapons overhead to destroy our communications, power and computer systems, and to set up their network of killer stealth satellites to kill anything on our planet that used modern technology. In a matter of days, Earth was driven back to a nineteenth century existence. Then the war really began, as the Creepers descended and set up domed bases that were impervious to everything save a nuclear bomb. For ten years then, the battered and surviving members of humanity have fought against the Creepers and their mechanized exoskeletons, until something unexpected has happenea chance for victory. Sixteen-year-old Randy Knox has the usual problems of a teenage boy: getting along with his father, dating his sweetheart, and trying not to fail his junior year of high school. But Randy also has other demands on his time, as a sergeant in the N.H. National Guard, attached to the U.S. Army, and fighting the invading Creepers. Randy has dim memories of a time of electric lights, laptop computers, television screens and above all, plenty of food at every meal. On his twelfth birthday, he enlisted in the Army to carry on the fight, since most of the worlds adults have been killed off and its up to the younger generations to serve. But now, as a veteran of the Creeper war and with his K-9 partner Thor, Randy has learned to focus on the essentials: the best way to kill a Creeper, scrounge through abandoned buildings for old canned goods, and to avoid being turned into _barbecue bait.î He has earned the Bronze Star, two Purple Hearts, and the Combat Infantryman Badge. Endless war is all he knows. But now change has drastically come to his life. The current President of the United States has announced that scattered remnants of the Air Force have destroyed the Creepers Orbital Base, ensuring victory over the alien invaders. Those surviving Creepers on the Earths surface will be hunted down and exterminated, as a weary and wary population celebrates victory. Yet Randy is assigned a new mission: to escort a secret representative from the Governor of New Hampshire to the nations capital, to meet with the President. And at the last moment, a fellow teen soldierÊthe beautiful Serena Coulson and her mute younger brother BuddyÊare assigned to join Randy. This secretive mission proves to be the most dangerous assignment of his life, as Randy tries to protect his charges from rampaging Creepers and criminal humans. And as he fights to reach the capitol with a vital mission, Randy learns that all of his skills in combating aliens may not be enough to survive the dark conspiracies of his fellow humans.

A terrifying and original tale of teens who are fighting to save their lives . . . and the future of planet Earth. U.S Army Sergeant Randy Knox is sixteen, and already a seasoned veteran. He is an alien killing prodigy who has eradicated more of the invading Creepers than anyone can keep track of. But Randy is also a high school student struggling with geometry. And he is a young man whose heart is being pulled in two directions by two very different girls. One, Abby Monroe, a straightforward warrior. The other, Serena Coulson, dangerous and mysterious. Randy, with the help of Serena’s strange brother, alien interpreter Buddy Coulson, has convinced a Creeper base to surrender. After a decade of conflict, misery, and the death of millions of humans, it finally seems that the war may come to an end. But then the surrender effort turns into a bloody ambush. More disturbing, Buddy and Serena Coulson arrive, having escaped torture and interrogation at the hands of a C.I.A. operative. It begins to dawn on Randy that, as much as he doesn’t want to believe it, the powers-that-be may not want the war to be over. Now, as Randy’s hodge-podge military unit makes a desperate stand at a remote outpost, young Sergeant Randy Knox learns just how far he will go to protect those he loves—and what it takes to save humanity from total alien domination.

Book excerpt: The air hung heavy with the scent of salt and hibiscus, a fragrant symphony carried by the trade winds. Paradise Cove, a secluded resort tucked away on a pristine island in the Caribbean, promised an escape from the world’s troubles. For a select group of guests, it was a haven, a sanctuary where they hoped to shed their burdens and embrace a temporary sense of bliss. Among them was Alex Turner, a former detective seeking refuge from a past that haunted him. He arrived at Paradise Cove hoping to find solace, but the resort’s idyllic facade soon crumbled, revealing a darker truth. When the owner was found dead in the infinity pool, the tranquil haven transformed into a scene of suspicion, fear, and escalating tension. Trapped by an approaching hurricane and cut off from the outside world, the guests found themselves stranded with a killer among them. As the storm raged outside, Alex, drawn back into the role of investigator, had to navigate a web of secrets, hidden motives, and escalating danger. He knew the killer was one of them, and as the body count rose, the race against time became a desperate struggle for survival. The journey that follows is a descent into the heart of darkness, where the lines between truth and deception blur, and the cost of paradise is measured not in dollars but in lives.
