Triumvirate Technologies is under attack. Murder and arson keep the business owners on edge. A government audit adds to the angst. Further turmoil weighs down the business leaders when a junior executive proposes an absurd – and illegal – bet: he will get rid of the auditors within two weeks in exchange for leadership of the business. As the business crumbles, the police reach their own stunning conclusion about the identity and motive of the murderer. Someone is waging death and destruction against Triumvirate Technologies. The over/under on survival is not favorable.

Author Bio:
Luisa Marietta Gold was born in Pennsylvania where she spent a large part of her adult life. She moved to North Carolina after the birth of her only daughter. She published her debut novel, Escape to Osprey Cove, which is Book 1 of The Osprey Cove Lodge series in September 2016. The Osprey Cove Series was born from Luisa’s love of the Rideau Lake region of Canada, the outdoors, and lake life. She spent many years enjoying the Rideau region while staying in lodges reminiscent of the lodge in her first novel. She currently resides on eleven acres in her North Carolina home near an idyllic lake with her husband and several mixed labs. She spends as much time as possible enjoying the beauty of the lake. Luisa also does acrylic painting. The cover of her debut book which features The Lady Droxell on a Canadian lake was painted by her. It was very satisfying to Luisa to know that she created the entire project. There is a tea room not far from her home where one selects a hat to wear while dining as did Libby and Rosalind in the book. And sometimes they are silly. Luisa’s bio picture was taken there.

Emotionally complex and gripping, author RKC Puthran brings you an unforgettable story of the transcendental power of love.

Fresh out of college with an MBA and a job at a prestigious bank in the US, Rohan Rai seemingly has more than any twenty-five-year old Indian could have. But he has a different dream for his life, and a clear-cut plan to get there. A cocky workaholic determined to climb the corporate ladder as fast as possible in order to achieve his goals, he doesn’t care who he alienates on his meteoric rise to the top.

Then he meets Shona. She’s everything Rohan’s not—an easy-going Irish girl who lives in the moment, loves Whitney Houston, and enjoys life to the fullest. Although there’s no room for any love in Rohan’s three-year plan, he finds himself increasingly drawn to her. As their relationship blossoms, Rohan slowly finds himself viewing life differently, until a past grudge escalates and his inner demons resurface. Torn between his ambition, his responsibilities, and love, he must now re-examine everything he believes in…or risk losing it all.

Author Bio:
RKC Puthran lives in Dublin, Ireland, along with his wife, Rashmi, and seven-year-old daughter, Natasha.

Born and brought up in India, RKC started working as a teenager to support his family while pursuing his studies. His first job was that of a salesman for a sewing machine company.
After he was unable to sell even a single machine after two months of hard work in the hot sun, the company refused to pay him his salary, and he quit. He then took up several jobs, from working as a cashier in a five-star hotel to working for a diamond merchant and in the share market.

Post-graduation, RKC joined a company in the banking and finance sector as a junior officer. Through sheer dedication and hard work, RKC rose through the ranks and managed to move over to London. He later migrated to Ireland with his wife and settled down in Dublin with a full-time job in a bank.

RKC’s intense passion for writing prompted him to write short stories during his spare time though he never submitted any of them for publication. He did, however, write articles of general interest which were published in newspapers.

He co-authored two non-fiction books, but he did not credit himself on the cover, as he wanted his name to be on the cover of a novel first.

Lovecarnation—The Promise is RKC Puthran’s debut novel and the first book in the Lovecarnation Trilogy.

These are usually the names of some of the greatest achievers in history that are not taught in schools but, need to be acknowledged as the American treasures they truly are.

Author Bio:
Ramon “Absoloot” Robinson is an independent hip-hop artist who was born in northern California. He concentrates on creating positive music which often comes with a political twist and working with young people through non-profit organizations like Men 2 Boys Mentoring and Life Sports Fitness. He currently lives in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, with his wife Jackie and their young daughter.

Ramon’s primary job (if you could call it that) is one that he always dreamed of. It allows him the freedom to make music wherever and whenever he chooses. His ability to create music and work with young people is nothing short of a dream come true and he has been using it with great impact in the community. Helping steer our youth in a positive direction. He is also an ambassador for Life Sports Fitness and works closely with AVDA (Aid to Victims of Domestic Abuse).

As a kid, Ramon’s love for comic books has turned into an obsession for creating his own. A project that merely started out as lyric books to accompany the music, changed given the enormous amount of positive feedback. With this new found success, he decided to expand on the idea and create full stories for each song, which turned into comic books.

This hobby has since developed with Life Sports Fitness and now his books focus on social issues in the hope of creating much-needed dialogue on matters such as race, bullying, domestic violence and so on.

When he has time to himself, Ramon spends every free moment writing ideas for new books or music, loves traveling and spends a lot of time speaking to youth groups.

As far as the future is concerned, Ramon believes in the Frederick Douglas quote – ‘it is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men’ and hopes that he can continue to work with young people and inspire them to follow their dreams and passions.

About Tornados, Rattlesnakes & Oil — A Wildcatter’s Memories of Hunting for “Black Gold” by Thomas Cochrane, Geologist

Black Gold…OIL…the magic bullet of liquid petroleum not only propels all manner of people-movers globally, it’s also a component of more than 6,000 products everything from motorcycle helmets, to vitamin capsules, to ink. But who DISCOVERS these critical and elusive fossil fuels of oil & gas?

MEET A WILDCATTER whose back-in-the-day journey from the hills of New York, to the ice fields of Alaska, to the plains of the Midwest brings the reader along on this complex quest to SEE underground. Here’s an insider’s look at the petroleum industry of the latter 20th century and what geologist Thomas E. Cochrane experienced along the way. From Oklahoma, to Texas, to rubbing elbows with iconic oilman T. Boone Pickens, his personal tales of the oil fields provide a firsthand glimpse into the art as well as the science of exploring and drilling all in the relentless pursuit of hitting the big one, every wildcatter’s dream.

From company man, to making indie deals and partnering on the fly while chasing the next hot prospect, Cochrane discloses the technical processes involved in detail…but also the thrill of the hunt including what can sometimes go very wrong. From dry holes, to blowouts, to sketchy money men among a cast of other colorful oil patch characters, his story delivers a step-back-in-time look at a bygone era in an ever-evolving global industry… and he has a sage perspective to share on its future as well.

INCLUDES: over two dozen vintage B/W photos, charts & diagrams along with helpful sidebars to introduce the uninitiated to the science of hunting for oil.
