An asset to President Ann Kinji in the past, Serena is snatched in
Germany and brought back to the United States for a covert mission
run by former government agents. Realizing that her participation
is not entirely voluntary, she is desperate to complete the mission
so that she can be reunited with her family. As the case draws her
ever closer to the conspiracy to kill the president, she reaches
out to the criminally insane for help, sinking deeper and deeper
into a rabbit hole where the bodies are piling up and nothing is as
it seems. COVERT COFFEE is book #2 in the Serena Wilcox Mysteries
Dystopian Thriller Trilogy (Angels Mark, Covert Coffee, Bluebird
Flown). The Serena Wilcox Mysteries are grouped into sets of three
books of the same theme. Each trilogy crosses into a different
genre or sub-genre as the series takes off in new directions.
Covert Coffee is Serena Wilcox Mystery #5 in the overall series
(The Serena Wilcox Mysteries) and book #2 in the dystopian trilogy;
only book #1 of the trilogy, Angels Mark, is a necessary prequel.
The Serena Wilcox Mysteries are hard to classify into a single
genre, and are a genre all their own, involving crimes that have
never happened because the technology doesn't exist (yet), or
because no one has thought to do it. Other features of the series
are its offbeat plots (plots-within-plots with many twists, and
endings readers can't guess), oddball humor and no graphic violence
or sexual content, yet edgy (hardboiled) and contemporary,
futuristic, or speculative.
Time travel detective Serena Wilcox investigates corrupt
governments of the past, present and future with her heroic crew.
Geek candy, dry humor, and plot-twisting suspense await those who
join Serena on her latest adventure. Historical references include
the Cuban Missile Crisis, Marilyn Monroe and John Glenn's orbit.
Meet Albert Einstein, journey to World War 1, and hide amongst the
immigrants of Ellis Island. As for what the future contains,
prepare for severely creepy plot twists and disturbing ideas What
began in Project Scarecrow continues in Ruby Red and comes to a
thrilling conclusion in Future Beyond. Serena Wilcox struggles to
stay one step ahead of the grandfather paradox in futuristic
America, where time travel is now possible. Time travel technology

Chilling and timely, the Serena Wilcox Time Travel Trilogy's plot
lines about ethics in science and government corruption are based
on current and historical research. Reading this 729 page tome
after the sun goes down may induce nightmares.
