Tek Vengeance

Book 4 of 9: The TekWar Series

Plot

William Shatner, known and loved as Star Trek's Captain James T. Kirk, delivers more suspense adventure in this latest novel in the Tek series. Critics have hailed his best-selling debut novel, TekWar, as being "as tough and scrappy as Captain Kirk" (The Wall Street Journal), praised TekLords for its "fast-paced action, high-tech gloss" (Library Journal), and called the author of TekLab "a good writer" of whom they "await his next" (Nashville Banner). In Tek Vengeance, investigator Jake Cardigan faces his most dangerous - and most heartbreaking - job ever. Beautiful Beth Kittridge, whom he has come to love more and more after rescuing her from the drug-dealing Teklords in TekWar, must go to Berlin to testify against one of the most dangerous Teklords of all. Jake wants to protect her - but he has a once-in-a-lifetime chance to obtain information from the dying daughter of a former Tek operative in Brazil. She'll talk only to Jake, and so he has no choice but to go, hoping to be back in time to travel with Beth. But as one thing after another seems to conspire to keep Jake and his sidekick, Gomez, busy in Brazil, he can't help but think he's been set up - and that Beth is in deadly danger. From Brazil to Berlin to Vienna, Jake and Gomez are off on a chase that may spell the end for the dealers in the vicious electronic drug Tek. This time Jake has the help of Dan, his son, who appears finally to believe that his father is one of the good guys, as well as that of the colorful cast of characters - human and robot - that fans of the world of Tek have come to expect
