MIND CONTROL: The Power to Change Everything
Murder and high-tech espionage
Mind Control technology, the ability to control anything with just your mind, is so secret that only a few people know it exists. Not even the Cognigate employees working on pieces of it know what they are creating.
So how can foreign powers be trying to get it?
When George, the president of Cognigate and the inventor of Mind Control, dies in his cleanroom lab behind six levels of protection, the security video shows he died a horrible death. But there are no weapons, no intruders, and no one else in the laboratory. The FBI and NSA think he died a natural death, but those who knew him know he was murdered.
Cognigate is one of Charlie Smythington’s largest clients, and it is almost a family business as his mentor, MT Day, and Steven Gadweils, the father of his lover Sonja, owns most of it. They want Charlie to find out who did it and protect the Mind Control technology.
Fun-loving insurance agent Charlie enters the strange world of high-tech microtechnology and cleanroom science to find the truth. As he unravels the clues, he is attacked, and more Cognigate employees die. When the FBI and police cannot stop the violence, Charlie turns to his greatest resource to find the answers – his numerous friends and clients.
With a captivating blend of boy-next-door enthusiasm, romance, adventure, scientific intrigue, and analytic techniques, Charlie Smythington is the most refreshing new sleuth in decades. His sales abilities, dogged persistence, and inherent curiosity combine to make him a fun-loving insurance agent, a dynamic lover, and an effective detective.
In a breathless race against time, Charlie matches wits with seemingly pervasive adversaries who are determined to get Mind Control at any cost.
The second book in the Charlie Smythington Mystery Series, Mind Control, combines near-future science and an Agatha Christie-like locked-room mystery. Get it today!
“Mind Control is a fun blend of mystery, near-future science, and high-tech puzzle, populated by sympathetic characters doing the right thing. Refreshing!” John E Stith , author of Pushback, Manhattan Transfer, and other novels.
