Solstice - Book Four
2ND NOVEL IN OUR INTERNATIONAL MINI-SERIES (SEE SNOW ANGELS for the first book in the mini-series) OR A STAND ALONE TECHNO-THRILLER COZY....
Jake Wheeler has been a major cyber-criminal, a teenage genius and computer prodigy, a hacker and Darknet webhost, the victim of a ‘copter crash on the cliffs of Scottish Highlands, honorary member of Anonymous, an FBI fugitive and then??
Literally, life has driven Jacob Wheeler to ground level. A year ago (See: Snow Angels or No Angels, Book 2), Jake lost altitude off the cliffs of one of the Hebrides islands, possibly the Isle of Lewis. A ferocious wind storm knocked his personal helicopter into the very edge of a cliff. He teetered there until he managed to escape with his survival backpack and a bottle of Glenlivet whiskey. He was to need both.
He made camp, hiding out in the Scottish forest, and began to change. His perspective of the world around him began to focus almost entirely on his daily needs as a resident of the forest.
In Solstice, he resurfaces into the urban world of London. The night before the Summer Solstice.
This should be momentous, and it was. Problem was, it was momentous in a bad way.
Again, Jacob had to run. But, running to his grandfather was to prove to be the best decision he could have made. With all of this trouble, Jake always went back to his family. His parents were divorced and usually traveling all over the world. So, he went back to grand’s.
Jake had begun life as a lonely boy, small for his age. He was a little socially inept, and knew it. He had taken solace in his computers and online reputation from a very early age. He was bullied in school to the point that it made him a little callus as an adult.
This, he was to learn, had to change. During his trials living in the forests of the Outer Hebrides, he learned compassion. Something he had needed.
