Human trafficking is a $150 billion a year illegal industry and one of the fastest growing activities of transnational crime organizations. Human trafficking has proven difficult to combat and has become a severe problem for law enforcement agencies across the globe. In a world of rules and procedures and due process, various law enforcement agencies oftentimes find themselves outmatched by criminals that operate without any such constraints.
Worlds Apart chronicles the secret missions of Tanner De Longpre, an ex-British SAS Agent, and his personal war against the crime lords of human trafficking. Joining him is a rogue team of ex-law enforcement, ex-military soldiers, and a mysterious benefactor who helps finance their cause. Their initial battles with the sex crime lords are hidden from the world at large, however the police, media, and general public soon become aware of the group's existence and their vigilante-like activities.
Worlds Apart Enforcers
Tanner De Longpre
Tanner De Longpre is an ex-British SAS Agent who has personally experienced the horrors of human trafficking. Living in Sierra Leone, Africa at the age of seven, he watched as his parents were murdered and his older sister Nozebo was kidnapped by African and German traffickers. Tanner went on to live with distant relatives in London, but never lost sight that his missing sister was a victim. Today, Tanner works closely with Bearden Grey and his newly created team to fight human trafficking cartels around the globe that continually escape a flawed justice system, with a hope of one day finding his lost sister.
Megan Ramirez
Megan Ramirez doesn't believe in taking prisoners. An early victim to the violence brought on by unchecked gangs, Megan has hardened her body and spirit to serve vengeful retribution to those who would take advantage of the weak. An expert in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and highly trained ex-SWAT Sniper, Megan faces her own inner demons via the bottle.
Nick Harris
Jack-of-all-Trades Merc-for-hire, Nick Harris, has a long turbulent history with team-leader Tanner. Nick's no-nonsense, hit 'em where it hurts, personality often puts him at odds with his teammates, especially the team's newest (and youngest) arrival, James. Nick's past is as much a mystery to the team as Tanner, despite his penchant to "call-out" prior mission names to illustrate tactical moves to the Team.
James Chen
James Chen is the team's technology expert and cyber-hacker extraordinaire. His teammates refer to him as "the Kid" but he is also known as "the man with a thousand aliases" by the illegal dark web community due to his many anonymous hacks of corporate/government computer networks. At the top of Chen's list of successful hacks is the 2017 Pentagon IT breach. Unfortunately, this same event also lead to his arrest and conviction. Chen's prison sentence was commuted when he later assisted the FBI in a high profile cyber crime case against the Mangano mafia family.
Bearden Grey
Bearden Grey is an operative of the CIA and also the secret case handler for Tanner De Longpre's rogue vigilante team who have initiated a dangerous war with the human trafficking cartels of the world that have escaped justice. Grey provides the team information and critical resources for their international missions while hiding both the identity of his investors and his own secret agenda. A strategic puppetmaster, Grey is a man that should never be fully trusted.
