Nowhere but Up
Mathias, Dutch, and Halvorson market their cryptocurrency programs in economically challenged countries in The Enigma Source. Desperate governments try to avoid the horrific outcomes of their economic free fall. Mathias and the team discover robust competition in their bid to gain favor with leadership in Venezuela. Mathias, a polished huckster, decides there is only one way to fight another day—survive.
Our characters rise to the challenges. Technologist and Blockchain programmer Dr. Halvorson uses the programs he created to orchestrate an escape from the Venezuelan Police. Mathias’s favorite helicopter transport becomes a third-world mini-van with a top speed of 35 kilometers an hour, but that is only downhill. Their plans of wealth and power are now on life support, but Mathias can only think of revenge. The exit strategy discussed in The Enigma Source is key to this short story.

The rest of their story was unnecessary to The Enigma Source. Yet readers and fans wanted to know what happened next. We had no intention of including these cyber crooks in another book in the series and still don’t. However, we found that there were unanswered questions for this trio of misfits who hit rock bottom. Nowhere but Up is their story. You decide if they chose well.
About the short story
Mathias and Halvorson are trudging toward the Brazilian border to escape the Venezuelan secret police who want to kill them.
Once they enjoyed the first-class service, today they wallow in third-world transport and lifestyle. Escape holds the promise of shearing more sheep to line their pockets.
Plans to cross the border get completely derailed as Mathias and Halvorson run into absolutely the last person they expected. Their hotly contested vendetta devolves into gunfire. The colossal distraction gives the three escapees time to flee. A non-negotiable bargain between the trio results in a risk-filled escape from Venezuela.
The hazardous journey takes this trio to a new opportunity. Mathias is a self-proclaimed leader with plans to get back on top. His methods are unorthodox yet highly effective.
Available on Amazon https://bit.ly/Nowhere_But We look forward to your review and comments on our short stories.

Hi ‘Rox, Hi Charles, Hi Robbie,
Rox and Charles, I purchased The Enigma Source as a audio book, and I enjoy it even though I haven’t finished it yet. It gets my attention and then I have to stop whatever I am doing and just listen to it. So, I am quite sure that Nowhere But Up is a good short story since it is a bit of background from the story.
Robbie, thank you for hosting Rox and Charles. I am enjoying the tour.
Wishing the three of you a lovely Sunday.
