Slowpocalypse Series

A perfect storm of trouble is brewing. Mysterious power outages, disrupted communications, and a rash of illness among the guards are only the beginning. Soon FURC Security Chief Anthony Nelson and his small, mostly inexperienced staff are overwhelmed by the hacking of the local network, the contamination of the food supply, and a seemingly impossible murder. And Lt. Katherine Miles can't help. She's far from the FURC on a secret mission and unable to warn them—if she can make it back at all, she'll be bringing even more trouble with her… The series continues with Book 3: Compromised Inside, Book 4: Peripheral Encounters, Book 5: Political Homicide, and Book 6: Seismic Disruption.

Beware the Gravity Bug. Sealed off from the crumbling civilization outside, the residents of the FURC may be safe from external threats, but their isolation only speeds the spread of a dangerous new infection, even as an upcoming election exposes divisions among them. And the fourteen square mile compound may not be big enough to prevent the pressure from building into violent upheaval… The series continues with Book 4: Peripheral Encounters, Book 5: Political Homicide, and Book 6: Seismic Disruption.

Everything will change. But the moment has been prepared for. Katherine Miles and David Belue, students at the first Federal University and Research Complex in central Florida, face a new and dangerous reality when the compound is sealed to keep the facilities out of the hands of a secessionist governor. Each will try in their own way to protect the community from threats without and within, and that could cost them their lives… (Slowpocalypse Book 1. Previously published as Certain Hypothetical.) The series continues with Book 2: Threat Multiplication, Book 3: Compromised Inside, Book 4: Peripheral Encounters, Book 5: Political Homicide, and Book 6: Seismic Disruption.

Two together, alone against the dark. Sent to scout the area surrounding the FURC, what Kat and Tony find among the crumbling remnants of civilization convinces them that for all the challenges they've faced inside the compound, they've had it easy.  Hoping to help some of the survivors, they encounter difficulties and dangers—but the real risk they run comes from a secret aspect of their mission Tony hasn't shared with his partner, a gambit that will put the pair in extreme peril from a ruthless enemy… The series continues with Book 5: Political Homicide and Book 6: Seismic Disruption.

Solving this murder might be the gravest mistake.   At the Northwest Federal University and Research Complex, where the community is sealed off from the crumbling civilization outside its walls, tensions are rife. So when the deputy director is killed during a brief blackout, knifed in the back while meeting with a handful of other highly important persons inside a secure conference room, it creates a political crisis. And Security Officer Duncan Kincaid, who's never handled a homicide before, is the one put in charge of the case…   A dystopian murder mystery set in the Slowpocalypse universe. (You can start the series with this as easily as with Book 1.) The series continues with Book 6: Seismic Disruption and returns to the Northwest FURC in Book 6: Catalytic Agents.

The second stage of the Slowpocalypse starts with unforeseen disaster, and everything will change. Again.   A flash of light in the sky followed by a massive earthquake means catastrophic upheaval for the Florida FURC community, but that disaster turns out to be only the first shock of many to shake their sanctuary. They've fought hard to achieve some peace inside the walls which have protected them from the devastation outside, but now that calm is gone. And their safe haven remains a refuge no longer…   The series continues with Book 7: Catalytic Agents.

Two worlds collide.   Kat and Tony's unconventional arrival at the Northwest FURC disrupts the delicate détente between Tekihara's administration and its opponents, causing the conflict to escalate into violence and setting off a struggle for the soul of the community—even as an unknown third party prepares to break into the compound…

The end has come, and everything will change. But the moment has been prepared for. When Director Jonathan Miles seals the compound containing the first Federal University and Research Complex to keep the facilities out of the hands of a secessionist governor, he upends the lives of everyone in the community—and sets off a chain of events hastening the collapse of an already crumbling civilization… The first 3 novels plus the prequel short story in 1 huge volume!
