In addition to common forms of spatial units such as satellite
imagery and street views, emerging automatic identification
technologies are exploring the use of microchip implants in order
to further track an individual's personal data, identity, location,
and condition in real time. Uberveillance and the Social
Implications of Microchip Implants: Emerging Technologies presents
case studies, literature reviews, ethnographies, and frameworks
supporting the emerging technologies of RFID implants while also
highlighting the current and predicted social implications of
human-centric technologies. This book is essential for
professionals and researchers engaged in the development of these
technologies as well as providing insight and support to the
inquiries with embedded micro technologies.
First in the Preternatural Investigation Agency series. All Tara
Daston wanted was a fun night out dancing with her boyfriend.
Getting killed was certainly the last thing she ever expected and
waking back up three days later as a vampire was the last thing she
ever wanted. And just when she finally begins adjusting to her new
life, a friend is killed by a creature nobody can identify. At
first, she tries to move on because, after all, she's just a newly
risen vampire who was still trying to learn about existing as the
undead. But despite it all, she can't stop thinking about her
friend. As more killings happen, she realizes that she can't ignore
it any longer. Deciding to investigate a little, she meets Tom
Duncan, the lead agent of the Preternatural Investigation Agency,
who is not amused at her interference. Whether it's because they
are both vampires or because he keeps treating her as if she's five
years old, but Tara really enjoys riling the agent. Also, now that
she's gotten involved, she doesn't want to stop. And when the
killer notices her and is intrigued, she no longer has any choice,
forcing her to work together with Tom and the rest of the agency to
stop the murders.
Third in the Preternatural Investigation Agency series. Lilith's
Day is a time of celebration and remembrance among vampires. As the
holiday looms, a series of horrific deaths shocks the vampire
community of Riverside and gathers the attention of Tom Duncan and
his agents at the Preternatural Investigation Agency. The vampires'
blood products had never been considered vulnerable to tampering,
so when the cause of death points to poisoning, everyone is
shocked. Finding the culprit amidst unknown motives, numerous
suspects, and rising tension between vampires and humans proves to
be complicated. At the same time, Agent Max Boyd finds herself
having to face her past when a dangerous thief makes his presence
known in Riverside. Reliving mistakes you tried to put behind you
is never easy, as Max well knows, but when the thief puts her
friend's life in danger, that is exactly what she must do.
The second in the Preternatural Investigation Agency series. Agent
Aidan Montgomery, crime scene specialist and warlock for the
Preternatural Investigation Agency, was used to working difficult
and dangerous cases. So when he was assigned an easy job of
examining a mummy and artifact for a museum to see if they were
cursed, he was more than happy to comply. It didn't take him long
to determine there was no curse, and he thought the job was done.
When mysterious deaths began happening at the museum, he realizes
he was wrong. As the body count rises, Aidan's skills and
reputation are called into question. Now, the only way to repair
the damage is to find the truth behind the bloodshed.
