Day of the Dove

by Rainer Rey

Overview

In this nail-biting political thriller, cinematographer Thane Adams films a documentary in Africa, when he comes across villages where the natives have died en masse. As Ebola and other deadly viruses are discounted as the cause of these mass deaths, Thane’s plans to use his disaster footage on TV news are totally disrupted when thugs posing as CIA agents try to detain him in New York. When Thane finds his publicist murdered and meets Danielle Wilkes, who’s being chased by the same goons, they both realize that they are caught in an overpowering web of conspiracy. The villages in Africa were simply a test––the true purpose of the deadly force––a plot by Muslim Militants who have captured a new technology to destroy cities in the United States. The deadly “city killer bomb” is ironically named “The Dove.” As this prophetic tale continues, one man and one woman battle against an ominous new technology that could kill millions and alter the world balance of power forever. There are 14 days until the ultimate horror is unleashed. The countdown begins––only 14 pivotal, spine-tingling days until the Day of the Dove.

Read an Excerpt

Danielle fingered the frame. Her expression in the photograph spoke of unconditional love for the man behind the camera. She remembered the moment as if it were yesterday—her unbounded joy, which had been snatched from her in a single moment.

How different life would have been if a drunk driver hadn’t crossed the center line. Had Damita been drunk when she crashed through the guardrail?

Feeling light-headed, Danielle leaned against the dresser, suddenly realizing how fatigued she really was. The convergence of past memories and the present crisis overwhelmed her as tears began to flow freely.

Needing a distraction, she opened one of the drawers. The perfumed compartment contained Damita’s undergarments. And in a second drawer, she found Damita’s accessories: earrings, belts, scarves. Her sister’s small mementos might be all that she had left behind. When a life ceased what a cruel vacuum remained. Damita’s passing would be impossible to accept. She searched for something to wipe her wet face, a handkerchief, anything. Rummaging through the accessory drawer, she found a soft orange scarf. As she pulled it out, a white slip of paper fell from within the folds to the carpet.

She retrieved it and recognized a Saks Fifth Avenue receipt. Turning it over as she placed it on the dresser, she noticed a half-finished sentence in Damita’s handwriting on the back. It read: Danny, the doves. They’re taking me.

Obviously in a great hurry, Damita had scribbled the words. She’d apparently been interrupted, most likely last night, after the phone call, otherwise she would have mentioned something on the phone.

They’re taking me...where? What the hell were the doves?

She tucked the note in her raincoat pocket and glanced over her shoulder.

It was time to get out. With thoughts racing, she retraced her steps. Was Damita forced to crash? Was she in the car at all?

Danielle hurried back down the hall. She was about to rush down the stairs when something made her pause. Directly ahead stood one last doorway . . . the only closed door on the second floor.
