In this latest novel, Rory McClannahan places us in world of Cold War spies with an alien twist. The result is a rollicking read that includes all the elements you would expect, including menacing bad guys, a sexy American spy, and an assassin with orders to make sure Reyn Baker doesn’t step out of line. They are all brought together because a girl died in Reyn’s arms and passed a chatty ancient alien symbiont to the young Air Force sergeant. Now everyone is trying to get to Reyn and the alien bug camped out in his body.
