Five people are dead at a small Las Vegas newspaper... The police and the media are running with the "official story"... But Alex Vane is after the truth. ****Alex Vane was once a top investigative journalist. Now he peddles celebrity gossip and clickbait listicles, watching from a distance as his wife moves on with her life - without him. But Alex's past catches up to him when he learns that an old source, James Stacy, has been killed in a random mass shooting. James left Alex one last scoop: a 50-year-old hard drive that may contain a secret worth killing for...and the name of the one person who can help him access the data. That person is Quinn Rivers, a paranoid and reclusive computer expert who believes the CIA is tracking her every move. And she may be right. When Alex shows up at her door with the hard drive, armed operatives are right behind him. Now Alex and Quinn are on the run. There is no one to trust, nowhere to hide, and nothing but the hard drive to prove that James Stacy's death wasn't random at all. What People Are Saying About The Mockingbird Drive and A.C.

 America's intelligence security is in the hands of a million private contractors. Now one hacker may bring down their entire system. Four months ago, Alex Vane's friend James Stacy was murdered by private security contractors working for the intelligence-industrial complex. Alex exposed the killers, but most of the system survived, including the amoral torturer known only as Amand. From within Cuba's internet desert, James's widow Innerva Shah seeks her own kind of revenge. After quietly penetrating the system of contractors that run America's security, she's launching the largest ransomware attack in history, with the aim of burning that system to the ground. But when Alex learns that Amand and his forces may be closing in on Innerva, he must make a desperate attempt to save her. With Innerva's surrender-or-die deadline only hours away, Alex finds himself in Cuba, threatened from every direction, and the only person he can count on is the wife he almost lost. Note to the reader: The Shadow File is Book 4 of the Alex Vane Media Thriller Series, but it can be read as a standalone. If you prefer to read a series in order, I recommend grabbing Books 1-3 in the boxed set: The Alex Vane Media Thrillers: 1-3. The boxed set leads right into The Shadow File, and it's the cheapest way to get Books 1-3. The whole series is also free through the Kindle Unlimited program.
