Terk's Guardians Books
Having cultivated his instincts through years of naval missions, Radar is roaming the world, working part-time for Levi and Bullard. When he’s instructed to go to Paris to help out a new start-up, he’s not sure what to expect. Especially given the caginess of Levi’s description of those who Radar would be working for. Outside of telling him, He’d fit right in , there is minimal intel on the job itself. Plus Radar’s working with two men he doesn’t know, and they aren’t willing to share their own secrets. Sammy threw in her heart and soul to help her best friend and fellow hacker track down a bomber, who’d left devastation behind on the Parisian streets over the last few years. When they finally get something tangible, they contact the authorities to help. That’s when Sammy’s world goes to hell. The race to save Sammy—and, indeed, Paris from an imminent attack—has Radar questioning his own instincts, and the abilities of those around him. … especially Sammy’s.

Molly would do just about anything for Langdon, yet being used as leverage to force him to act wasn’t part of the plan. But escaping would take more than her special energy skills, abilities her captors are unaware of. She needs to keep it that way. Now if only she could open the psychic door she’d slammed shut between her and Langdon to let him know what was happening—before he was forced to do something that could kill them both …

As they delve deeper, the lines between family and foe blur, and their quest to prevent another nightmare becomes as much about trust and betrayal as it is about stopping the thieves.
