Synopsis

In his follow up to the critically acclaimed Operation: Immortal Servitude, award-nominated author Tony Ruggiero weaves a tale of intrigue, secrecy and choices.John Reese thought it was all over-all except the nightmares. Everyone thought the Team of Darkness operation finished, and the vampires dead. Everyone but General Stone, who secretly proceeded with two special vampires. Two young, innocent girls, who should have spent their childhood playing with dolls and chasing boys. Instead, the girls, now full-fledged vampires, are trained to be the perfect assassin, ready to serve the General's personal ambitions.When Stone is murdered, a secret government organization sets out to contain the project-their way. And just as he begins his teaching career, John Reese is recalled to active duty to hunt down the two young vampires, gone missing from the 'training' facility. But he must do it without revealing his secret: the Team of Darkness vampires still live, and likely freed the girls. If the secret gets out, his very freedom is at stake."...Operation: Save The Innocent is a bitingly good supernatural thriller that keeps readers on the edge of their seats." ~ SFREVU.com

About this title

About the Author

Tony Ruggiero retired from the United States Navy in 2001 after twenty-three years of service. While continuing to write, Tony teaches at Old Dominion University, Saint Leo University, and Tidewater Community College in Norfolk, Virginia. His published novels include:

Operation Immortal Servitude: Book I of the Declassified Files of the Team of Darkness: The US military has developed a new weapon to be added to its arsenal--the creatures known as vampires. Tony uses his Naval experience to write this dark fantasy thriller about a group of vampires that are discovered in Kosovo, captured and brought back to the United States to be used by the Navy SEALs as an elite hit squad. Ground breaking and fast paced, the novel is a characteristic mixture of the vampire lore of Anne Rice and the clandestine secrets of the military found in Tom Clancy novels.

Operation Save the Innocent: Book II of the Declassified files of the Team of Darkness: General Stone, the commander of the Special Operations forces is murdered. His assassin is a vampire who has been controlled and used by a U.S. secret government organization to murder selected targets since her arrival in the United States over sixty years ago. Meanwhile, the vampires from the Team of Darkness operation discover the existence of two young vampire girls being held captive in their own former prison and set out to free them while eluding both the military and the Agency.

Alien Deception: Something to keep in mind with the upcoming presidential election: Nothing is as it appears...nothing. Your whole life you think you understand who and what you are and then one day you learn that it is all a lie. So what do you do? You have lunch with the leading candidate for President of the United States...you and your alien friends.

Alien Revelation: Death has many meanings. For some it is an end, while for others it is a beginning. Yet, for one human/alien hybrid, it is a way to have one final chance to try and save his home, Earth, a son he has never seen, and find an enemy that just won't stay dead. The exciting conclusion to Alien Deception.

Tony is also a contributing author to The Fantasy Writers' Companion, Writers for Relief, No Longer Dreams and Breach the Hull. In addition, Tony has a humorous tale called, The Importance of Undergarments at Science Fiction Conventions, which will be appearing in the Writers for Relief Anthology II coming in Fall 2008.

Coming in 2009 from Dragon Moon Press, the third book in his vampire series: Operation Face the Fear: From the Declassified Files of the Team of Darkness.
