A little about Security Force of Two:

Miacoh Zane, a Special Forces veteran, returns to Aspen Ridge, Colorado a small town nestled in the Rocky Mountains, to settle his beloved grandmother’s estate. But the town holds painful memories and family secrets he wants to leave behind for good.

She returns to her sleepy hometown only to discover her childhood crush has also returned and a violent crime has been committed.

Due to their covert operations experience, Candle and Miacoh are thrown together to assist Homeland Security, FBI, and her father, former chief of police, with a murder investigation. As they search for the perpetrators, will their secrets be revealed as the investigation takes an unusual twist that could blow the case wide open.

An exciting new peek between the pages of Security Force of Two:

“The bad news is what they purchased. The video shows a man with stringy blond hair bought a large number of nails and fertilizer. The other one appears to have dark hair, cut short. He picked up ball bearings, wires, and tubing. They purchased this stuff in large quantities at several stores. In Colorado Springs, they walked over separately to a discount store next to the home improvement store and bought vinegar, peroxide, sugar, and eight car batteries.

“Who the heck needs eight car batteries?” Candle pulled her bottom lip through her teeth.

“Shit. Those are an excellent source of sulfuric acid.” Miacoh let out a low whistle.

She wiped her sweated hands on her jeans staring at Miacoh, who took a swig of his coffee.

Candle’s eyes rounded as the color drained out of her face.

Miacoh put a hand on her arm. “Candle you okay?”

“We are dealing with—terrorists, aren’t we?” She paused before the word terrorists slipped off her tongue. Heat now coloring her cheeks. “I left that world behind, only to have them show up in my backyard. Some coincidence.” She fisted her hands in her pockets. “I gotta get Terra.”

Nodding solemnly, Miacoh confirmed her statement and said, “It’s believed to be exactly that, a coincidence. There are many potential targets up and down the Front Range. What better place to lay low and gather supplies than near a quiet little town next to a playground of the rich and famous?” Miacoh held up an 8×10 photograph from the stills of the video marked on the back “Chief Bearclaw only – original.” Candle held the back door open for Terra, and then looked at the pictures.

“Who’s those men in the picture with Councilwoman Wright?” Candle looked at Miacoh as the scorn on his face darkened to thundercloud level as he shuffled through the other pictures.

“It looks like our esteemed councilwoman has a connection to our two persons of interest.”
