About the Book

Danger, biological curiosities, murder, sex, and government conspiracies are about to collide. Smile and Walk Away, the first book of Danielle Riedel’s Shatter series, will be released this spring.

 

Velma Bloom is a young woman with a power shrouded in mystery, and Jackson Duran is a rookie detective with a unique set of morals. When Velma disappears and Detective Duran is assigned the task of finding her, his ethically questionable methods unearth some sinister things. What he learns goes way beyond Velma’s disappearance, and even further beyond her strange abilities.

 

Smile and Walk Away will make you question what people are really capable of, both morally and scientifically. Speculate at your own risk.
