Dark Mind Rising

This stand-alone sequel to The Dark Intercept is the second book in a high-concept YA SF trilogy — a taut, twisty murder mystery for fans of Veronica Roth

When the state is no longer watching, what will you give to feel safe?

New Earth, 2296. Two years after the destruction of a universal surveillance system called the Intercept, New Earth struggles to keep crime under control. The citizens are free, but not protected.

Violet Crowley, the eighteen-year-old daughter of New Earth's founder, has opened Crowley & Associates, a private detective agency, to handle the overflow from the overburdened police force.

Violet's first case — a death written off as a suicide — becomes an obsession. Soon a series of similar deaths leads Violet to believe the Intercept is not only still running — it's in the hands of a killer.

Dark Mind Rising is a thrilling SF murder mystery about a chilling future in which citizens believe they're free after years of emotional surveillance, only to discover a killer is targeting their deepest fears.
