   Additional Information  
 
  The Scoloderus Conspiracy is a non-stop thriller set 300 years in our future when the United Americas Trade Federation rules the western hemisphere. The Libre Voyageurs—a group of nomads surviving in the harsh northern territories—have fought this formidable government for decades. After suffering one devastating defeat after another, they have a daring plan to get a weapon that will annihilate the Trade Federation. To achieve this decisive victory, a Voyageurs’ espionage team will abduct the leader of an elite Shadow Warriors battalion and use his own daughter in a dangerous plot to trick him into revealing the deadly secrets of Scoloderus.

When Colonel Hammond vanishes during a battle in the northern territories, hours later his daughter disappears from her home and then his wife dies in a highly suspicious car accident, the Trade Federation’s Chief Delegate draws on every resource at her command. She must find the villains who are destroying her family, recover her son-in-law and granddaughter, and deliver a terrifying revenge. She recruits Professor Allen Taylor to join the military team that is trying to find Hammond and foil the enemy’s plans. Professor Taylor is a brilliant and accomplished academic, but he does not know he has become part of a life or death drama—his life or death.

Set against an undercurrent of resentment and mutual suspicion between Professor Taylor and the Army’s Chief of Staff, General Leland, The Scoloderus Conspiracy is a three-day journey of abduction, deception, betrayal, and revenge.
