Canada comes under attack - with a viral assault, and the "God" chip - the ultimate weapon for population control. A new action crime fighter, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police' weapon against terrorism, goes into action, in a deadly race against time and freedom.
An elderly man in the remote Canadian tundra keels over dead - mysteriously seized by a heart attack. Another man in downtown Toronto, steps in front of a car, killing him instantly and before he can deliver his critical package. Two remote deaths, a continent apart, and yet connected in a plot which could change the face of the world. Keeno McCole, head of Canada's special crime-fighting task-force, and his team, takes on an elusive enemy from within the nation, and are vaulted on an international chase which takes them across the globe as they race to prevent the deaths of tens of thousands, and moreover, to stop the spread of the malicious God-Chip, a microchip implant which alone could change our very way of life. Intrusion is the first book in the Keeno Action Novel series.
Excerpt
The boy moved without a sound, entering through the kitchen door, where he saw his mother pressed back against the sink with blood streaming from her mouth. Hunched over her, with one hand squeezing her throat, was his drunken father. In the other hand he held a knife, poised above her. He screamed and ranted, saliva spitting out of his mouth as he did.
The boy closed the distance between them and without hesitation drove the scissors into the man’s right thigh, pushing on them with all his strength. Blood gushed out, spilling on him and onto the floor. His father howled and screamed like a wounded animal and fell back against the kitchen table, which collapsed under his weight. He thrashed madly at his thigh, trying to pull the scissors from it.

Laura Z - review on INTRUSION
I had a good time reading this book and following Keeno through all his escapades, gun fights, and travels. I enjoyed the story, the plot and sub-plots, Keeno's relationships with the other characters (especially in his early years with his uncle), and the shoot-outs and knife fights. The interspersed action kept the action going. Keeno reminded me of some of the larger than life heroes I like in books by Cussler, Frank Miller, Michael Connelly, and some manga and graphic novels. I thought it was interesting how the author took simple concepts like viruses and RFID chips and took them in totally different directions I wouldn't have thought of. Put your feet up, use your imagination, relax and enjoy. I'll be waiting for book #2.
