The threat of a terrorist attack. Confusing dreams. Pesky demons. Multiple puzzles. An alleged Halloween deadline. What do all of these things have in common? Veronica Pearl. As Agent Pearl, she is the Special Investigative Consultant for the Southwest Region, specializing in fighting terrorism and counter-terrorism by day. As Veronica, she is plagued by fighting demon counterparts in her dreams by night; sometimes because they have to do with a case she is working, sometimes because demons simply don’t like her. She is a busy lady. Her newest case begins accidentally, at first glance. What appears to be a large outbreak of food poisoning at a local mall food court is just the beginning of the puzzle. In addition to her favorite (and only) niece being too close for comfort to that event, there is also considerable chatter about an upcoming terrorist attack. If what she uncovered is accurate, the planned attack on San Antonio, her beloved home, would be like nothing she has ever seen before, using a bioweapon she never could have even imagined. Marrying scientific advancements with real life needs is a huge benefit to society. Of course, everything can be twisted away from good towards evil, but how could somebody plan something like this? Why would they want to hurt innocent people in order to benefit themselves? And just how wide does the terror web spread? The heads of two biotech companies in San Antonio appear equally guilty and able to conspire about something like this. Is the attack allegedly planned for Halloween night when so many children and adults will be out in public and susceptible to harm? It will take an entire team to figure out this threat that has been years in the making, and stop it before the world as she knows it changes irreversibly.
