The Dragonflies series consists of two thrillers published in 2013 and 2015. Shadow of Drones and Flock of Angels deal with drone surveillance technology, exploring its potential for both legitimate security use and dangerous overreach. The books were published at a time when public debate about drone technology was intensifying.
Andy Straka uses the thriller format to examine real-world concerns about privacy, technology, and the balance between security and freedom. The Dragonflies books show a different side of his writing from the quieter, more atmospheric Frank Pavlicek mysteries.
