A truck traveling north near the Mexican border was required to stop for a security check by the Mexican Army. As the soldiers approached, the driver, without a word, suddenly committed suicide. The shocked soldiers then opened the back of the truck only to find it was full of twenty-eight assassinated human bodies, and a strange cargo of illegal drugs. When they discovered that three of the bodies were Americans, and one of them was a diplomat, the U. S. Secretary of State asked the Navy Special Investigation Unit to work with a brilliant young Congresswoman and the FBI to find out what was the reason for it all and who was responsible. The investigation followed an unusual trail, leading to a violent Mexican Cartel, illegal smuggling and export of opium, and the construction of an unknown project just ten miles south of the U.S. border. As the search for an explanation progressed, some very unusual connections with people, in Mexico, Germany, Cuba, Russia, and India, began to surface. As question after question just kept throwing the search off the track, the investigators kept finding strange answers. But when they looked at everything together, it seemed to lead to a potentially dangerous extorsion project that might bring down the American banking system and destroy the U.S. economy. ¿
Richard B. Christie was born in New Jersey in 1944.When he got out of school and finished his time in the Navy, he created and owned a technical engineering company that performed testing, balancing, and critical adjustments on many industrial-grade air-conditioning and high-performance sterile systems; for almost fifty years. Those systems are used in hospitals, pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities, and research laboratories. They include special areas where high-class clean rooms are required, such as surgeries, sterile suites for production, and special testing facilities. Much of that work included writing and preparing the technical specifications and validation procedures needed for those systems. Once he retired from the business world, that writing experience proved to be the inspiration needed to prepare for a literary future.The work took place in various countries and locations worldwide, and he frequently needed to travel abroad. Thus, it seemed inevitable that he would be fascinated by the world's historical sites, locations, and events. When he was not traveling overseas, he found himself at home or skiing in Vermont most winter weekends. As a member of the National Ski Patrol System and as a Certified Patroller at a major Vermont Ski area, he was trained in advanced first aid and remote mountain rescue procedures. Once retired, a love for the reenactment of early American history just seemed to be a normal result. Of course, living in Florida, the early Spanish period was what he would be involved with. Thus, he joined several groups of reenactors in nearby Saint Augustine, the oldest continuously occupied city in North America.Working as a volunteer reenactor, he again found himself demonstrating and describing many of the historical actions and daily events of the 16th, through the 19th centuries, to the many visitors who came to see the town.While traveling, he had always enjoyed reading many mystery and suspense novels written by many famous authors. That made him want to create stories that exhibited many of those special features.
