Casualties Of Conscience: We're Out Of Time

di Stephen Pocklington (Autore)

Stephen Pocklington, 2023

They say you can't fix stupid. But when Stupid is killing the planet, shouldn't someone at least try? When our collective peril becomes great enough, what might happen if a few righteous-minded individuals take direct action because their government won't? Special Agent Jordan knows her duty. She enforces the Law. But now she's confronting an assassin whose every hit makes the world a better, safer place. Call him an eco-terrorist or vigilante, but so far his "victims" are just well-connected scum. DNA declares this eco-terrorist to be her nemesis from a decade ago, scum in his own right who nearly destroyed her career. He's making it personal. Yet, there's something remarkable about this assassin…a purpose and underlying decency that doesn't fit. And he wants her to stop him—or try. Her pursuit stretches from D.C., where sniper fire took out 12 men in just hours, to L.A. and then back again, leaving a string of 100+ bodies along the way. DHS seems concerned only with obscuring the administration's connection to victims, forcing Jordan to work from the shadows, always several corpses behind the vigilante/Planet Steward. Planet Steward? What sort of person wreaks such horror on the country and why? Is this how to save the planet? Taunted by fragmentary clues left in daily warning messages, and aided only by what she learns from increasingly gruesome killings, can Jordan get ahead of him? Or, as she learns more about the so-called victims, will she even want to stop him? Will she find her answer or will it explode in front of her…?
