Key Word (Electronic book text)

Commander Red Schmidt, USN Retired and partner, Chief Mayo, USN Retired are asked by several federal intelligence agencies ONI, FBI and CIA - to find out how and why United Transponder Technologies (UTT) contracted to design the ultra top secret, world wide surveillance system - "Key word" could have lost millions of dollars in the early stages of development. Sparks start to fly when Schmidt is thrust together with FBI Field Agent Marsha Benson with whom he has a romantic past. It's all about love and money as they uncover an international terrorist group attempting to gain valuable information that could put the U.S. in jeopardy. "Key Word" probes issues we should all be concerned with. Our right to privacy under the fourth amendment, the issue of warrantless wire tapping of U.S. citizens and how a system such as Key Word might actually work.
