The Puppet Master (Electronic book text, ePub First edition)

Four seemingly disparate lives are beginning to unravel...and one person is holding the strings. The Rocket Scientist--On the eve of a new satellite launch, the fiance of NASA project manager Alanna Mendes is apparently killed in a fishing accident...only to be spotted six months later in Silicon Valley. The Computer Genius--Four years after being caught by Homeland Security hacking into NASA's mainframe computer, Jay Alexei is still blacklisted from the top colleges and computer companies. Now a changed man, he is desperate for a second chance. The Financial Wizard--Once a successful international banking CFO, today David Collier is a broken man who can't afford the expensive treatment for his daughter's rare kidney disorder. The American Dream--When a terrorist group abducts the son of rags-to-riches Steven Galvin, the billionaire is trapped in a nightmare where no amount of money can help him. One person ties them together: The Puppet Master.
