A young journalist uncovers what might be the world's biggest conspiracy - if only he can prove it
For years, Chi Sandwith has written about things like alien abductions, puppet masters, and brainwashing. He's not a "conspiracy theorist" though - he's a serious journalist and a seeker of the Truth. When Chi meets a man who claims to be a former secret agent, it looks like evidence of a huge conspiracy has landed right in the reporter's lap.
But can Chi believe a single word he hears from the professional liar? And why is the old spook so intent on introducing Chi to a woman who could expose the agent's dark past? Over the course of 1 day, Chi is faced with spies, anarchists, a tough-as-nails policewoman, a highly valuable refrigerator, and a very harsh truth: He is a rank amateur in a world of dangerous professionals . . .
The Need for Fear is a companion novella to Strangled Silence.
Genre: Young Adult Fiction
