About This Book
A priceless biotechnology, an FBI agent, and an unspeakable act of familial betrayal collide in a tropical kidnapping more twisted than a DNA double helix. When a renowned scientist with a solution for global warming is kidnapped at sea, FBI Special Agent Tara Shores must unravel a high-tech trail of S.O.S. messages encoded into the DNA of living cells. As each decoded message brings Tara nearer to the missing genius, it also takes her farther from help than she ever thought possible.
Also includes a sneak peak of the new Tara Shores thriller SOLAR ISLAND, coming December 2012 from Seven Realms Publishing.
PRAISE FOR kiDNApped
"Great scientific concepts that are based in reality, especially the secret messages encoded in DNA...Vivid setting in Hawaiian islands with lots of local color and local detail. Good pacing will keep you reading to the end. FBI agent Tara Shores is one cool, competent chick."

"Rick Chesler's biotech thriller kiDNApped is a pulse-pounder of the highest order!"
~Weekly EBook Reader
"The lush Hawaiian setting is conveyed in a way that immerses the reader in the story. There's a strong scientific element to the plot, but is handled in a way that keeps the book accessible. kiDNApped is an exciting techno/science thriller in the spirit of Michael Crichton."
~MEGALITH reviews
"Chesler really had me with all the clever science experiments, fast-paced chase scenes, gun action and original twists and turns. I need a crow bar to pry myself away."

PRAISE FOR RICK CHESLER'S TARA SHORES SERIES
"[Wired Kingdom] A whale of a tale by first-time author Rick Chesler involving modern-day pirates, media moguls, and a sexy federal agent -- all chasing a cetacean-mounted camcorder and the crucial piece of evidence needed to resolve a murder."
~Steve Alten, NY Times bestselling author of GRIM REAPER and MEG
"WIRED KINGDOM is a fast-paced thriller that is one third deep-sea adventure, one third FBI sleuthing and one third awesome. A superb debut novel and killer concept."
~Jeremy Robinson, author of PULSE and INSTINCT.
"This is a summer page turner. It won't challenge your belief system and it doesn't stray too far from the whodunnit genre. But if you're looking for an entertaining read from someone new, I highly recommend Wired Kingdom...Remember when Michael Crichton was good? This is who I'm reminded of when I read Wired Kingdom."
