Hammerhead

A collection of short stories in The Beta-Earth Chronicles Book Series

20 years in the future, humanity has been decimated by climate change and waves of fatal plagues released by Islamic terrorists.

In this new world, Special Operative Mary Carpenter of the Commonwealth of Independent States takes on deadly opponents, including white supremacists, cells of the Everlasting Caliphate, and an international organization of smugglers called Hammerhead plotting to dominate the planet with an all-powerful fear gas.

Join Mary Carpenter in four fast-paced, futuristic adventures that might be in tomorrow’s headlines.

There, Mary must uncover the secret to the smuggling operation and investigate what drug the organization is stockpiling in its quest to quash all opposition to their domination.
