From critically acclaimed bestselling crime writer, Edwin Dasso, comes a gripping techno-thriller, part of a multi-author series tied together by an interlocking cast of characters, all centered around the fantastic new promise of high technology and the endless possibilities for crime that technology offers, in a world where getting away with murder can be not only plausible, but easyβ¦if you just know how.
A young rising-star ad executive, Michael Saleen, in Vancouver dies unexpectedly. The police think itβs just another βroutineβ auto accident, in spite of some odd findings. The executiveβs wife feels otherwise. A friend of hers knows Wes Watley, an ex-Army CID officer and FBI SAC who has now started a private security company, if heβd be willing to investigate the death. Though Wesβ company normally focuses on national security and antiterrorism cases, his friend compels him to take on the case of Saleenβs death. Wes thinks it will be a quick, open-and-close case. Wes is joined by his tech-whiz partner, Cameron, and they soon discover more and more oddities about the case. As they dig further, they uncover something far more extensive and dire than just the unexpected death of Michael Saleen. Uncovering the whole truth is going to stretch their crime-solving abilities and force them to use technology in new ways.

My Review
When private security expert Wes Watley is asked to investigate a case for a friend, he doesn’t expect to be thrown into the confusing world of virtual gaming technology and murder.
An ad executive takes a sudden plunge off a cliff and the only clue is strange goggle-like markings on his face. Wes and his techy partner, Cameron, delve into the possibilities with little results until investigative reporter Julie Crenshaw gets involved and the stakes are raised.
This book delves into the latest in high-tech crime and the process used to track down a cold, ruthless killer.
Favorite Line
He soon spotted the yellow crime scene tape, a cold breeze making it flitter like a bird trying to escape to a better place.
Dasso, Edwin. Virtually Dead (High-Tech Crime Solvers Book 4)
I was fascinated by the research that went into writing this technical suspense filled with enough twists and turns to keep any mystery lover happy.
This is part of an eight book series written by different authors of high-tech crime thrillers with interconnecting characters and I look forward to reading more!

I love having guests on the blog. If you have a new release, a sale or just want to chat, send me an email via the contact page and we’ll set something up. Hope to see you soon!
Sounds interesting. Wishing Edwin the best of luck.

I haven’t really read techno thrillers. This one sounds pretty good. And I do like the concept of the shared world. I’ve done that twice now, myself. Thanks for sharing this one.
