He plunged the needle into his chest. His heart raced, and he began to black out just as he heard the sound of approaching vehicles.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Leo J. Maloney was born in Massachusetts, where he spent his childhood and graduated high school. He received an Associate degree in Criminal Justice from Northeastern University, Boston, MA, in 1976. In 1966 he was inducted into the Army. During basic training, he was recruited to become a Black Ops contractor for a clandestine government agency, and his life changed forever. He traveled the world to strategically important hot spots. As an independent contractor, he was never required to accept a particular assignment but rather selected ones that met his criteria that they be in the best interest of the country. Once a mission was under way, there was no turning back.
While serving his country in the secretive world of Black Ops for more than thirty years, he operated several “cover” businesses, including a classic-car brokerage and promotions and limousine companies. He also coached girls’ basketball teams and still runs some of the largest basketball tournaments in the Northeast.
After leaving his career in Black Ops, Leo continued several of his cover businesses and also had the opportunity to try his hand at acting in independent films and TV commercials. Leo has several movies to his credit both as an actor and behind the camera as a producer, technical advisor, and assistant director. He performed dual roles as a featured performer (a Boston Police captain) and technical advisor in the movie 27 Down. He is the associate producer for the disaster film CO2, and he both performed the role of Judge and was the producer for the Christian-themed Luke Eleven. Leo appeared in Revenge as Special Agent Andrew Garnell of the FBI.
He recently acquired www.acahoops.com, the premier site for team, tournament, and all other basketball-related information.
His Web site is www.leojmaloney.com.
