Symmetry. Got a little tongue-tied while reading, but I think it turned
out okay.

Raven and Stranger Now Available!
Raven and Stranger are both available on Smashwords and Amazon!
Both novellas are set in the late twenty-second century, centering around agents of EarthGov Security, Division 2.
Raven: In his time with EarthGov Security, Special Agent David Troy thought he had seen it all. So when he and his partner, Special Agent Maureen Rogers, were assigned to assist local law enforcement with a kidnapping, he expected to have the case quickly resolved. But with no ransom, and no contact with the kidnappers except for a single note, David sees the situation goes from bad to worse. What do the kidnappers want from a successful industrialist? What part does the head of security play? And what secrets are Maureen keeping from David?
Stranger: : When she joined EarthGov Security, Denise Bell knew she wouldn’t have an easy time. As an Enhanced Human, designed to have greater abilities and sharper senses, there was only one division in which she could serve. Or so she thought. Now, Denise is the first of her sort to serve in Division Two, mandated with operating on Earth and within the home system. She soon finds herself on her first big assignment. She has to infiltrate a terrorist camp, and determine their next target. What part does her batch sister play?
Both novellas are $2.99 for the ebook, $5.99 for the paperback.
