Memories Erased:
Deception
M. E. Reid
Aianna Sinclair believes she has it all until her husband
develops terminal cancer. To support his needs, she gets a job closer
to home and finds herself in an office rife with deception and conflict
where doing her job puts her in jeopardy. Then her husband dies. At
his funeral, she meets her alleged invalid neighbor Gregorio Galliano
whose imposing stature contradicts his purported infirm status.
Handsome and affable, with a subtle threat of menace, Aianna stares into
jungle green eyes in a too handsome face, and a chill of apprehension
sweeps her body.
When she returns to work, the Chairman of the Board closes the office,
offers her another job, and she accepts. At the new job, it’s déjà vu
from day one. Enmity from co-workers is palpable, the Chairman’s
conduct toward her turns bizarre, and her supervisor tries to set her up
as an embezzler. However, it’s not until someone kills her supervisor
and she becomes the prime suspect that Aianna realizes she’s the target
of something more sinister than antagonism, and she may not survive.

Ruthless Redemption
Marie E. Reid
In an isolated location outside a small desert town, the government is conducting classified, scientific experiments using the combined DNA of notorious serial killers and an unidentified predator.
Code name…Ruthless.
After years of botched, disastrous attempts to develop an ideal specimen, their dedicated endeavors finally pay off. From among the surviving infants, one baby is a beautiful, perfectly formed replica of what they need to develop their scheme. So what happens when this project goes awry and their prized experiment, a genetically altered 10-year-old escapes before they have the ability to control it? The government tries to correct their error by creating another child capable of tracking and destroying the first.
Code name…Redemption.
Over the years, without the necessary control substances needed at each stage of development, Ruthless utilizes the characteristics of both DNA donors to survive. Stalking and brutalizing with the cunning of a proficient serial criminal, it kills with the vicious, hungry instincts of a predator in the wild. A rash of brutal murders and disappearances terrorize the people in the communities surrounding the outpost, then stop. The crimes go unsolved.
Twenty years later, in one of the communities not far from the government lab, serial killers, rapists, and pedophiles tried for their crimes and escape justice on technicalities begin to disappear. When their dead bodies resurface, hideously mutilated, suspicion falls on a few gung ho law enforcement officers from the community’s Violent Crimes Unit.
Meanwhile, the commanding officer of the outpost, recognizes the ramifications of the mutilated bodies. He assigns his own federal investigator to look into the matter, and neutralize the problem. However, this particular agent, Jordan Perry, has a private agenda, and his current assignment fits right in with his personal campaign, but leaves him in a quandary. Knowing the capabilities of both specimens…which one will he have to destroy? Ruthless, Redemption, or...maybe both.
