SYNOPSIS:

Laura and Alec are trained terrorists.

Jack and Aubrey are high school students.

There was no reason for them to ever meet.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Robison Wells began writing professionally (and poorly) as the theater critic (live theater, not film) for Red Magazine, an arts weekly at the University of Utah. He started writing my first novel shortly thereafter, and it was terrible. His first published novel, On Second Thought, was released in 2004. With a background in sociology, he developed a great love for the squishier sides of business–particularly consumer psychology and behavior. He has been writing fulltime since 2011.
