The Hiddens - A Mystery Novel (Paperback)


Terry Sabine, a black M.I.T. graduate and an expert computer hacker, uncovers two couples and two singles who, under death threats, have been placed in Witness Protection by the CIA, the DEA, and two other federal agencies at a life care retirement center in suburban Boston. Each agency and the Hiddens themselves are unaware that other agencies were also placing persons undercover at this site. Terry hacks into local and federal files to discover the back-story of each Hidden.
One of those under protection is killed by a terrorist-style shrapnel bomb, causing deep consternation among the elderly residents, and an intensive investigation by the four agencies to determine if her cover had been blown. As the only person who knows the history of all four, Terry gets caught up in the investigation and is ultimately on the run to avoid a federal indictment for his hacking.
Roger Floyd is a retired Community Organizer who served with Councils of Churches in four Connecticut cities. He organized welfare mothers, rent strikes, and urban-suburban linkages against racism, poverty, and school segregation. He trained change agents in Connecticut, Boston, and the Maritime Provinces of Canada. He mobilized neighborhood coalitions to combat gentrification. Twice, he ran in Democratic primaries for Mayor of Bridgeport, CT.
This is his third book...his first novel.
