Dawn of the Valkyrie C. J. Alexander

At three widely-separated locations, mob figures are assassinated. At a small private university on Michigan's Upper Peninsula, Dr. Peter Kohler and Barbara Cahill, his graduate teaching assistant, stare at a computer screen upon which a very strange sequence of characters appears. Recognizing it as encrypted, the professor instructs his teaching assistant to decode the message. She does, and within hours, attempts are made to kill both of them. Now people are dead, and they must run for their lives. The question is: Who is trying to kill them? And why?The trail leads through federal law enforcement and intelligence agencies, government think tanks, and intrigues of international conglomerates. It is time for professionals, but the hand is being played by amateurs. The stakes: Their lives. And maybe everyone else's as well.
