WHAT LIES AHEAD IS ALREADY HERE...
America is a difficult place to live below the surface. But Gabriel and Michael Corrigan are trying to do just that. Since childhood, the brothers have been shaped by the stories that their father has told them about the world in which they live. Since his mysterious disappearance, they have been living 'off the grid' - that is, invisible to the intrusive surveillance networks that monitor our modern lives.
But no-one is as invisible as they would like to believe. Nathan Boone, a mercenary, has been tasked to hunt down the brothers. The only person who stands between them and certain death is Maya, a tough young woman playing at leading a normal life. But her background is anything but normal. She has been trained to fight and survive at whatever cost.
When she is summoned to protect the brothers, she must leave everything behind if she is to succeed.

Indispensable
Una obra maestra. Empieza con un padre y una niña en el metro, y como parte del entrenamiento en medio de una pelea entre ultras de dos equipos de la champions, el padre coloca una bufanda del equipo contrario a su hija y se va dejandola sola. 5 tios van a por ella y esta se defiende reventandoles a ostias. Es una arlequin, quedan pocos en el mundo pero son entrenados para ser impredecibles y letales. Por ejemplo tiran un dado para decidir si ir andando por la calle o cojer el autobus. Nos vigilan. Son la tabula y estan a la caza de los arlequines, que viven para proteger a los viajeros. Gente con poder de viajar a otros planos y volver a la tierra con sabiduria y alterar la historia. Como los profetas que hemos tenido en las religiones. Ya no quedaban, pero parece que han descubierto a un nuevo viajero.
Advertencia. Si lo lees, descubrirás que es mas que un libro. El autor vive pero no se sabe quien es ni donde vive. Escribe bajo este seudónimo.
