Be careful what you look for. You might find it. After a year on the job, Kira is still a new agent in the eyes of her FBI counter terrorism colleagues. When a young man is reported for making violent threats against government agencies, she is given the chance to lead the case. Keen to prove herself, Kira dives in, determined to find the man before he can hurt those she has sworn to protect. When a photo leads her to the suspect, Kira discovers a clue that takes her down a path she never dreamed she’d have to walk. Sometimes the answer is closer than you think.

About the author
Alison Clifford
11 books43 followersAt the beginning of December 2013, I sat down at my computer and started typing. I had a story in my head that insisted on being released and four months later I had written my first novel.
Writing is not new for me. I've been writing since my teenage years. It is only now that I have felt the urge to take it more seriously.
My credentials? I don't have a degree in writing and I'm not published extensively (yet). My first job was the Australian Army Reserve and I left only to enlist in the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF). I loved the life and it has left me with an interest in the things military and law enforcement related. Another passion in my life is research. I love to find out about things and have been doing that since high school. Not content with set assignments, I used to take up my own research projects on a wide range of topics. So rest assured, if it's in one of my stories, I have researched it extensively. Having said that, there will be occasions when I need to take a bit a license, bend the truth to fit the story.
I love writing. I love letting the story inside me come to life on a page. It's intoxicating. The pure pleasure I experience is something incredible, so I will keep writing for as long as the stories keep appearing in my mind. If someone else enjoys reading what I write, then that increases the joy I feel. Winners all round!
In brief:
Age: Old enough to have grown three grown children.
Lives: Tasmania, Australia.
Inspiration for stories: Music of all kinds, overheard comments, strange news items.
Interests: Motorsport, reading, research.
Guilty pleasures: Self-confessed stationery junkie.
