Description

In Shadows of Elsewhere, a taut and fast-paced espionage novel, FBI agent Margot Le Chameleon is drawn into the shadowy depths of global cybercrime and geopolitical intrigue. Tasked with investigating Nuovi Viaggi, a glamorous virtual reality company, Margot uncovers a sinister web spun by the powerful Malinche family. Masters of deception, the Malinches' influence stretches from glittering Las Vegas galas to the murky waters of the South China Sea.

As Margot delves deeper, she realizes that Nuovi Viaggi is more than it appears—it's a global front for illicit cybercurrency manipulation and influence peddling. With China's strategic foothold in Latin America expanding and Washington maneuvering to reclaim the canal, Margot becomes entangled in a silent war where allies are uncertain, and betrayal lurks at every turn.

When the U.S. and China collide in a high-stakes game over one of the world's most critical trade routes, Margot must decide how far she's willing to go to expose the truth before she becomes the next casualty in a war fought in the shadows.
