Hacking Cybercrime: Dana Sanderson Short Mysteries

Where the Dark Web Meets Its Match

Dana Sanderson left her youthful adventures in hacking behind. Settling for a calm and orderly career as a code-cruncher. But life in the Atlanta cubicle farms brings its own special kind of stress and nonsense. Then Dana's old skills bring her a chance at a new life. And a chance to bring her fabulous best friend Andre along for the ride. Join storyteller Kari Kilgore for five hits of clever digital mystery.

Includes five near-future short mysteries: The Sound of Murder, The Fabulous Feats of Billy, Glory Lane and The Humid Holiday, Melting Point, and Three Computer Geeks Gruff

The Sound of Murder When Self-improvement Turns Deadly Insurance agency programmer Dana Sanderson only wants peace and quiet at work. A desire her micromanaging boss somehow never respects. Then the investigation of a rash of suspicious natural death claims lands on Dana's laptop. Failure means huge payouts for the company. Success means a huge bonus for her. Find out if Dana's risks outweigh her rewards in this clever cybercrime mystery.

The Fabulous Feats of Billy The Successful Launch of a Disaster Billy's new tech start-up sits on the verge of greatness. A fantastic reward for leaving his rotten old job in the dust. Until a miscalculation lands Billy in a nightmare. Unfortunately Billy's way out puts him squarely in cybercrime expert Dana Sanderson's sights.

Glory Lane and the Humid Holiday A Strange Case in a Strange Place A chance to recapture past glory days gone awry. A cybercrime expert forced to endure warm, sunny weather in December. A South Florida holiday with two stressed-out techies in the wrong place at the right time.

Melting Point An Invisible Countdown to Death A cookie-cutter suburban house. A strange aroma. A dead body. A suspect refusing to talk. Sometimes a stumped investigation needs a non-standard mind.

Three Computer Geeks Gruff When the Cat Drags in a Mystery A cold IT dungeon, full of noisy servers and grumpy workers. Not exactly a natural fit for a cat. Until you consider the blinking lights and all those places to hide. But this cat finds toys more disturbing than cute.
