The 4th Cohort, Finding Dark in the Light

By Kevin L. Hostbjor

Beneath the dark ocean, a routine missile test turns tragic, and a politically splintered world spills out in oil, munitions and terrorism. Submarine crew members Suze and Ole find and follow a data trail which leads to unrestrained power and greed. The 4th Cohort is a story of global corruption and individual bravery.

It's the 1980's, an era of anti-war activism and escalating terrorist attacks. The world's democracies keep busy trying to hold autocracies in check. Attention is stretched between and amidst regional skirmishes and their global participants. It is an age of burgeoning technologies and a time for a corporate conglomerate to take advantage of global distractions. Unlimited wealth is up for grabs, and one organization has plans to take it.

Living and working in a secret facility. Testing multi-million-dollar equipment and weapons. Grappling with inner demons. For erstwhile Staff Sergeant Suze Reynolds, this is a typical day in the not-so-typical life of a data processing professional. Further complicating her situation, she's surrounded by several outlier individuals enticed into joining the clandestine program. Disrupting the idyllic adventure of their inviting environment, a massive oil spill in Alaska provides the impetus for discovering the cause of terrorist attacks in West Germany. Using her data processing skills, Suze uncovers ominous information hidden in computer code, indicating her possible involvement in a terrorist attack.
