Frequencies
Joshua Ortega. Omega Point Productions, $17.76 (368pp) ISBN 978-0-9671120-2-2
In Joshua Ortega's first novel, ((Frequencies)), the citizens of the technologized nations of A.D. 2051 can have bio-""gengineered"" body parts and modems in their brains, but jaded Agent McCready, whose job is to investigate frequency emissions violations, prefers 20th-century sensibilities. When he signs on to protect the family of a wealthy tech-magnate, he gets more than he bargained for: skeletons (or clones) in the closet, the magnate's beautiful daughter, potentially lethal informational infections, life-threatening danger and a cherry 1957 Chevy.
