2 Novels, 2 genres, different characters

In the Blink of an Alien Eye aka The Children of Loki stars: Gezka FaucMerz as the interstellar genetically engineered and thoroughly brainwashed young woman warrior officer, and Kiel Bronson the well traveled mature independent man with a blend of legal military experience and a streak of criminality with which he is extremely comfortable. Gezka symbolizes something as the giant virgin Captain. Kiel signifies something else - never married, often a girlfriend, a sincere and passionate lover - this is the man who evaded prison through military service. He has no mixed feelings about it.

An Adventure in Indianapolis stars: an invisible foe -Tutweiler Buckhead, a white collar criminal with a management day job. At some point Tutweiler lost perspective and 'forgot' that consistently selling cocaine or meth amphetamine at stylish parties was actually drug trafficking and definitely illegal. He developed a habit of it and it seemed second nature as an aside from his normal working life as a responsible corporate suit. The bad guy is shocked when his double life collapses and he is confronted by the idea that his day job boss is going to find out he's been dealing drugs for years. He is not comfortable with it.
