Paperback. In a time of global uncertainty, a terrifying secret lurks in the cyber realm.In early 2020, as a global pandemic begins to cause turmoil around the world, Michele Morales has come to the conclusion that her employer, a global security firm, is likely behind a digital crime scheme. Her unease deepens when she and her co-workers are forced to board the company's huge yacht. After a few hours of watching lines of co-workers taken behind closed doors and then returning under the influence of some mind-altering substance, she knows the worst is yet to come. As the yacht leaves the dock and heads toward the open sea, Michele escapes, propelling herself into a shadowy world of secrets, betrayal, and escalating danger.Is the real danger coming from her employer's agents, or is there something far more sinister at play, lurking in the unseen world of cyberspace? Every second counts as Michele unravels a conspiracy that could shatter everything she thought she knew about her company, her colleagues, and herself.From Miami to Havana, to the Bahamian isles and Washington D.C., they face attacks by those behind the criminal enterprise but also their own government. Michele and her partners must uncover the truth, decide whom to trust and side-step a threat that could shake the foundations of international security."A swift, outlandish adventure both on and off the water that keeps the reader guessing". Kirkus ReviewMichael A. Pyle, born in Daytona Beach, Florida in 1953, holds degrees in English, Linguistics, and Law from the University of Florida, where he also was an Associate Professor of English as a Second Language. After over 40 years practicing law-mostly with a firm he founded-Pyle recently retired to focus on his passion for fiction writing. He began writing his first novel, White Sugar, Brown Sugar, at age nineteen but didn't publish it until 2012 at age fifty-nine. This historical novel explores racism, addiction, and recovery in mid-20th-century Florida. It was named a finalist for the American Legacy Book Awards in Inspirational Fiction (2024). The Wall Street Journal's "Readers' Choice: The Best Books of 2013" voted it #2. White Sugar, Brown Sugar was reprinted through Amazon in October 2025, so that is the latest version. Pyle began Cuban Roots twenty years ago, drawing on accounts from people who left Cuba in the 1960s. When the U.S. first allowed family visits to Cuba in 2010, he began traveling and continued for quite a few years, visiting museums and libraries across the island and exploring historical sites of wars, battles, and imprisonment. He met Cuban history graduate students, where he was presented different versions than he'd learned before. Pyle presented Cuban Roots twice at the Instituto de Historia de Cuba in Havana. Cuban Roots examines contrasting perspectives between Cubans who remained on the island and those who fled, shaped by age, timing of departure, and family political involvement. This research partly inspired the Cuban setting in Giga Trouble. Amid a global lockdown, a cybersecurity analyst uncovers a deadly conspiracy inside her own firm-and must outrun it to save international security. This item is printed on demand.
