Book 1 of the Moving Target Trilogy

Stevie Parker did everything right. Good career. Growing company. A private equity deal on the horizon that would change her life. She was smart, capable, and completely unaware that she had already been selected.

Not hacked. Selected.

Moving Target follows Stevie through twelve mistakes across twelve chapters—the same mistakes most people made this week. Password reuse. A text from her bank that was not her bank. A link in a work email that looked exactly right. Her mother wires eleven thousand dollars to a criminal on the phone who knew exactly who she was, who her daughter was, and which bank she used.

None of it was random. Stevie was profiled, targeted, and queued up by an operation that runs like a business—with quotas, shift changes, and a board of directors. She just did not know that yet.

Alongside Stevie's story, each chapter pulls back the curtain on a real cybercrime operation: romance scams, business email compromise, elder fraud, ransomware syndicates, pig butchering operations, and more—told in plain English for people who never thought any of this applied to them.

This is not an IT book. It is a crime book. And by the time you finish it, you will understand exactly how these operations work—and exactly how to make yourself a target they skip.

You do not have to outrun the bear. You just have to outrun the person standing next to you.

Perfect for:

Anyone who has ever said "I have nothing worth stealing"

Business leaders who want their teams to understand the real threat

True crime fans who want the crime to come with a solution

Anyone who loves a story and wants to walk away safer
