SCORPION

A CIA data analyst hunts a cold killer in a world that's changing faster than humanity can adapt to, a world with new rules, new forms of evil and new heros. Originally published as a novella, film rights have sold to Fox and the author is extending into full length novel.

Ranveer is a man of means, but not a mean man. His occupation exposes him as a cold killer.

Quinn Mitchell is a data analyst for the CIA during the day, and a suburban wife and mother on evenings and weekends. After a series of personal struggles and professional failures, Quinn hopes to find redemption in her newest assignment: a series of bizarre assassinations where victims are found with three-digit numbers tattooed, burned, or carved into their flesh. As Quinn pursues the killer across the globe -- always one body behind -- their lives become entangled in ways neither of them can predict.

THE EPOCH INDEX takes place in a world bordering on unprecedented change: as oil-based economies shift to hydrogen, the majority of wealth is redistributed across the globe; as aging nuclear arsenals are replaced with even more menacing threats, terrorists try to seize opportunities to tip the balance of power; and as humans become increasingly dependent on machines, massive indexes of information accumulate which can reveal almost anything about anyone to those who know how to use them.
