Anyone Evan Ellis touches dies in less than a minute. This unexplained ability has littered his past with a trail of lifeless bodies. But learning to control his "gift" is the least of Evan's worries. Someone knows his secret and they're coming for him. When he's abducted and awakes in a building far below the streets of Manhattan, Evan is told of a groundbreaking discovery. It is here that Oben, a calm and methodical scientist, has spent the last ten years on an experiment that will change the course of mankind: a machine that can open a portal to the afterlife. Using this NOVA technology, anyone will be able to speak to the dead. He needs one last piece to make it work: Evan. Oben promises to teach Evan to control his ability in exchange for his help with the experiment. But when they learn of a forgotten colleague's dangerous plan to build his own NOVA technology, Evan has no choice but to join Oben, learn to use his ability for good, and stop an experiment that will kill thousands. SPIRIT HACKERS is the first novel of its kind mixing the action & technology of a technothriller with the metaphysical & mystical by exploring the afterlife. It all comes together for an adventure that's part cyberpunk, part revenge, and all amazing. Aaron Crocco can be summed up as a writer and a podcaster, but complicating issues further is the fact that he's a huge geek, Apple fanboy and loves Back to the Future so much that he owns a Delorean. In the mid-2000's his writing spark was reignited and he's been tearing up the keyboard ever since. His thriller Chrono Virus rocked readers with its original take on space travel. Aaron's apocalyptic debut series AS DARKNESS ENDS explores the end of the world from many points of view. His short story PARADOX was published in November, 2011. He hails from Long Island, NY and enjoys hockey, rock & roll, way too much ice cream, Nutella, and coffee.
