About TEAM AVENGING ANGEL: Love & Rough Justice in Brooklyn by Charles S. Isaacs:

Kindle version FREE on November 2-6, 2023

A kick-ass female anti-hero spreads her wings, delivering justice for victimized girls and women.

She is an African-American survivor of a racially-charged childhood rape, who grows into a strikingly beautiful assassin. He is the Italian-American private eye with Mafia connections who loves her. Together, they take on serial killers, sex traffickers, kidnappers, child molesters, rapists, wife-beaters, predators and exploiters.

Along the way, women they’ve protected join them in their quest. Frustrated and threatened by a corrupt criminal justice system, though, the team is forced to work outside, and often against, the law.

When she finds herself pitted against a unit of the Haitian secret police, and he finds out why he is being framed for a series of murders, the stakes could not be higher.

About The Ericksen Connection:

The Ericksen Connection is a spy thriller about betrayal, PTSD, corruption, conspiracy, terrorism, and murder. Mark Ericksen, the former Navy SEAL Team Six operator and executive vice president of EyeD4 Systems, a biometrics defense contractor based in Wilsonville, Oregon, was all about duty, honor, and country.

OBJECTION

About OBJECTION:

She agreed to her abduction…

But never dreamed that she’d fall in love.

Single mother, Shei Rivera, volunteers herself to a plan orchestrated by her father, Liam Rivera, who is a criminal defense prosecutor for the state of Virginia. The situation requires Shei to commit an unimaginable crime of her own – homicide. Liam has ordered her to murder the man that he prosecuted years prior over a reckless driving related death of a child.

On the morning of her abduction, Shei is physically assaulted, gagged, and bound prior to being thrown inside the trunk of a vehicle. Unsure of who her attacker is, she is transported to a cabin deep in the Blue Ridge Mountains and handed over to Casper Floyd; the man that her father helped convict.

Strangely, Shei discovers that Casper is nothing like he was described as being. He is nice, polite, and vows to look after her. Also, he denies any wrongdoing in the crime he had been incarcerated over. He claims that it was her father who assured his conviction by way of decietful and highly unlawful legal practices.

As the two spend much time learning about each other, Shei discovers the shocking secret that her deceased mother’s two million dollar life insurance policy is at the heart of this scheme. She comes to the conclusion that Casper is not the monster he was made out to be, and is actually there to protect her. The true villain seems to be everyone else involved. Individuals she would have never once suspected.

For what reason would someone want them both dead?

How far will Shei and Casper have to go to assure their survival?

Ultimately, can love and affection truly evolve from an intended devastation?
