Wired
Rogue
by Toby Neal
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Mystery/Police Procedural
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
‘Wired
in’ to her computers, MMA-fighting tech agent Sophie Ang has been content in
her clean, cool tech lab, where she chases criminals online, continuing a dance
in the dark with the enigmatic vigilante known as the Ghost. Tumultuous changes
from without and within eject her from her agency cocoon to the front lines,
where she finds herself in partnership with a brilliant, overbearing,
larger-than-life ex-Special Forces operative, Jake Dunn. They climb walls,
dodge bullets, kidnap children and dig up bodies for a case that might cost her
life—and has already taken her badge.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
EXCERPT:
Children shouldn’t be treated as slaves. Anger tightened
Special Agent Sophie Ang's hands as she adjusted the binoculars a little more
to focus in on ten kids of various ages, bent over in a water-filled patch of
land planted in the deep green, heart-shaped leaves of the Hawaiian kalo.
They wore bathing suits and palm frond hats as they worked in the hot sun, an
adult supervising from the shade of a nearby palm tree.
Taro farming was back-breaking work, and it looked like the
Society of Light cult was using their shortest members to work with the
submerged tubers. Sophie’s partner in the operation, Ken Yamada, shifted
restlessly beside her in their camouflage surveillance tent on a rise of ground
across the river from the compound. “Ten is more children than we were told
about.” he murmured.
“We have to locate the two targets,” Sophie said, for the
benefit of their SAC, Waxman, monitoring through their comms. “Can’t identify
the children positively yet.” The homemade hats hid the red blond hair the children’s
mother had told the agents to look for. Sophie widened her scan, and took in
the rest of the cult's property.

Her characters come to life in my head, and her richly detailed plots have me thinking about her books long after I put them down.

Hi, Toby! I'm another Rogue's Angel just checking in. I fixed the misspelling in the intro and checked the links, which all looked OK. Was there something else that needed to be corrected? Sorry for the goof. : /
DeleteHee hee! I didn't even notice it but several of my readers emailed me: "Weird Rogue? Doesn't sound like your title!" Lol Thanks again!
DeleteLove the covers of your books! Also discovered the first book of this series is very specially priced, at least on Amazon, so I'm starting with the first book of this series. Hope your tour goes well!
