Shadow Cell is the fourth novel in this exciting, stand-alone, covert intelligence series. It takes the reader on a bold espionage journey into a dark chapter of WWII history following the escape of a war crime Nazi medical officer. After payoffs of certain officials, the research papers documenting details the horrific Nazi child experiments along with the medical officer end up in Argentina where they lay dormant for over 40 years.
Years later, the Nazi medical officer and his Argentine mobster sponsor die within two years of each other of natural causes. Neither man was ever arrested, tried or convicted of their crimes due to Argentina's unstable political environment. The son of the mobster boss now controls the child experiment documents and is determined to profit by revising the experiments using current medical technology.
The buyers he sees for his dastardly technology offering is the newly emerging lucrative market of worldwide terrorism. He targets world powers unfriendly to America to start the bidding process. If successful his technology sale would expand his large drug and crime empire to unheard of international levels beyond the already large parts of the Argentina underground he already controls.
The action takes place in the 1980s when the son is already in full swing of recreating the Nazi experiments of turning children into biological weapons. By exploiting the weaknesses in American's adoption and immigration systems this mobster demonstrates to his bidders how easily orphan children can be placed into American cities.
Carrier children infected with biological disease are sent to several states before an unlikely researcher catches an anomaly in hospital reported data. Not only are the medical experiments in full swing but Wade Hanna's missing lover Megan Winslow surprisingly surfaces under deep cover working as a medical technician in the mobster's Argentina medical clinic. She is surrounded by a private army of well-armed terrorists in a small town. Megan faces immediate torture and death if she is discovered trying to smuggle out stem cells for the U.S. to analyze while protecting the children by modifying the dosage of experimental injections they receive.
Unknowingly, her undercover black ops intelligence companion Wade Hanna can't trust Megan's U.S. handler and has to go undercover on his own risking his own life. At one point in the mission Wade secures the the arms and backing he needs but they suddenly evaporate as his target leaves the country.
A suicide mission is his last alternative which he gladly accepts but realizes just giving up his own life won't matter if he can't free the children and loses Megan in the process.
The twisting complexity of each plot unfolds with hair raising suspense making this novel a one of a kind fictional thriller you can't put down. Backed by real science and true history this literary journey keeps you gripping the edge as you turn every page and why it consistently receives five star reviews.
