Summary

She's used to life-or-death situations. 
She just didn't expect them to follow her home. 
 
When former field surgeon Heather Fontaine returns from a party to find that someone has broken into her house--and threatened her friends--she assumes it is the stalker who has been creeping her out. She hopes to find safety and peace of mind by leaving the city and hiding out in a small town. But trouble follows her even there. 
 
Luckily, a stalker isn't the only one observing Heather. Travis Walker has been secretly watching out for her for weeks. As owner of his own security agency, it's what he does. 
 
Together, Travis and Heather must figure out who wants her dead--and why--before it's too late.

    Secrets at Every Turn: A Life Shrouded in Duality
 
On the surface, Alex Banner lives the life of a successful business executive, a man who juggles family obligations with the demands of his career. Yet hidden beneath this conventional facade is a man who has spent over two decades entrenched in the shadowy world of international espionage. In a life marked by duality, every decision carries the weight of secrets kept from those dearest to him.
 
Step into a world where every action has profound consequences. Alex's journeys span continents and are marked by encounters that blur the line between ally and adversary. Each face he encounters is a reminder of the complex web of connection he navigates in pursuit of a cause greater than himself. Every choice teeters on the delicate balance between a duty to his clandestine endeavors and loyalty to his family—oblivious to the hidden life he leads.
 
Imagine the tension of living in constant duality. The faces of allies, turned informants, and friends, turned foes haunt him. As Alex reflects on his path, the true cost of his enigmatic existence becomes clear. A burden of secrets shared with no one; they weigh heavily on his conscience. What began as a mission wrapped in patriotism becomes a personal struggle of moral ambiguity and the sacrifice it demands.
 
Be drawn into the compelling story of a man who must confront the intricacies of human relationships forged under extraordinary circumstances. Will Alex Banner's alter ego unravel the threads binding his two worlds, or will he master the delicate art of balance? Join him as he stands at the crossroads, with everything at stake and secrets at every turn.

From A. J. Payler, master of modern fiction behind The Killing Song, Bank Error in Your Favor, and Terror Next Door comes Stop All Interference—seven stories of struggle against overwhelming odds and unstoppable fear, people pushed beyond betrayal and forgiveness, of the world we live in and what people will let themselves do just to survive in it.

And even if what seemed like the perfect cover might instead turn out to be the perfect crime… well, sometimes, people just have things they have to do. 
"Default Admin Credentials": It seemed like the perfect crime… that should have been his first warning. Nothing could go wrong, or that was how it seemed… but in the end, he couldn't honestly blame anyone but himself for not seeing it coming 
"The Rumble of Heat Lightning Above the Deep Midwestern Woods": A mysterious figure stalks the murky backwoods of the Midwest on an unrelenting mission for revenge, with nothing but a Bowie knife to protect him against the monsters that haunt the forest.
