A Debt Is Finally Paid
This new book in the Marsden-Lacey series puts Martha Littleword and Helen Ryes back in their favorite place: knee deep in mystery and adventure. I had a lot of fun writing this next book because I got to highlight strong female characters from history, such as in this case Empress Maria Feodorovna of Russia, with fictional female characters who represent the wonderful women I’ve known in my life. Humor, gumption, with a dollop of sass are the leading traits I like to imbue my characters with. This book required a lot of research about water gypsies, canal boats, Romanov history, World War II history, and Russian Cossack culture. It was a lot of fun but sometimes I had to take myself in hand and stop digging. I can get carried away with the historical side of my books. I want things to be based in historical truths and events. Everything surrounding the story of Maria Feodorovna including the dates, people, events and places in this book has grounded in history. My greatest hope for anyone reading one of my books is that it takes them to a playful, enjoyable place for a while. I’ve been blessed in my life to enjoy so many people’s books, movies, tv programs, handmade items (food and otherwise!) that it would be great to return the smiles. A Debt Is Finally Paid will be free August 20 thru August 22, 2015. Thank you for reading!

Fosgate’s Game by David C. Cassidy
About Fosgate’s Game by David C. Cassidy:
Award-winning author David C. Cassidy dares you to light up a candle and curl up in your favorite reading chair on a cold, blustery night. Take in the sounds, the smells, the sensation of utter terror, as you weather a journey into the darkest side of the human psyche. In this chilling tale of supernatural horror where Stephen King meets The Twilight Zone, nothing is ever as it seems–and nothing can prepare you for the evil that lurks in the hearts of men. Eerie and sinister, Fosgate’s Game is a haunting tale of greed, dark magic, and murder.
IT WAS A DARK AND STORMY KNIGHT.
For Chadwick Harlow, a peaceful, easy-going Englishman, after-dinner drinks with his business partner–a ruthless, hard-edged hunter–is a weekly affair. But when casual conversation takes a mysterious and menacing turn into the supernatural, his wits are put to the test in a deadly challenge. Clinging to life but praying for death, Chadwick must summon the will to survive, before all is lost in a terrifying descent into madness.

Author Bio:
Award-winning author David C. Cassidy is the twisted mind behind several best-selling novels of horror and suspense, Velvet Rain, The Dark, and Fosgate’s Game. An author, photographer, and graphic designer–and a half-decent juggler–he spends his writing life creating dark and touching stories where Bad Things Happen To Good People. Raised by wolves, he grew up with a love of nature, music, science, and history, with thrillers and horror novels feeding the dark side of his seriously disturbed imagination. He talks to his characters, talks often, and most times they listen. But the real fun starts when they tell him to take a hike, and they Open That Door anyway. Idiots.
David lives in Ontario, Canada. From Mozart to Vivaldi, classic jazz to classic rock, he feels naked without his iPod. Suffering from MAD–Multiple Activity Disorder–he divides his time between writing and blogging, photography and Photoshop, reading and rollerblading. An avid amateur astronomer, he loves the night sky, chasing the stars with his telescope. Sometimes he eats.

Barbara Lohr writes contemporary romance, both adult and new adult. A flair for fun and subtly sexy love scenes are her trademarks.

PRIMAL Mirza
PRIMAL Mirza is a prequel in the PRIMAL series. It reveals the back-story of Mirza Mansoor, a former Indian Special Forces soldier turned PRIMAL operative. It is approximately 150 pages long.
The year is 1999 and tensions between Pakistan and India are at breaking point. When critical intelligence prompts a cross border raid Indian Para Commandos arrive too late to prevent the deployment of a team of Lashkar terrorists. Mirza Mansoor, a Special Group operative and his partner Himesh Arjun, are all that stands between highly trained jihadists and their sinister objectives. As they track their quarry from the mountains of Kashmir to India’s capital they realize that terrorism is not the only threat they face. In the poverty-stricken slums of New Delhi crime and terror have free reign, greed is king, life is cheap, and heroes are few and far between.
This story is set just after the Kargil war between India and Pakistan, the closest these two nuclear-armed states have come to full-scale conflict. Having been defeated at Kargil, ISI and terrorist proxies escalated operations against India, which culminated in the 2008 Mumbai attack, resulting in over 600 casualties. During this time, the NSG, India’s lead counter-terrorism response unit, was severely under-resourced and -equipped. It’s in this setting of extreme contrasts, corruption, and terrorist threat that I’ve crafted a backstory for one of PRIMAL’s favorite characters.

Author Bio:
Jack Silkstone grew up on a steady diet of Tom Clancy, James Bond, Jason Bourne, Commando comics, and the original first-person shooters, Wolfenstein and Doom. His background includes a career in military intelligence and special operations, working alongside some of the world’s most elite units. His love of action-adventure stories, his military background, and his real-world experiences combined to inspire the no-holds-barred PRIMAL series.
***
PRIMAL is a team of elite operatives, hell bent on fighting for the downtrodden and oppressed. A renegade agency waging a secret war against the untouchables; powerful criminals, greed driven corporations, and twisted politicians. With cutting-edge technology and tactics they strike across the globe with impunity, stepping in where governments fail.
***
“If you like Tom Clancy, you’ll like PRIMAL. It bristles with authenticity because the guy who wrote it used to do it for real.” –Matthew Reilly, author of Ice Station, Scarecrow, and The Five Greatest Warriors
“Every book in the PRIMAL series is packed with fast-paced special ops action. The heroes are bad asses, the women are hot, and the bad guys always deserve exactly what PRIMAL unleashes on them. I would expect nothing less from an author who’s been around the block once or twice with elite combat units.” –Jack Murphy, author of Reflexive Fire, Target Deck, and Direct Actionand the managing editor of SOFREP.com

Ebola: An Evolving Story
About Ebola: An Evolving Story:
The book is a narrative of the unfolding of the Ebola virus disease outbreak from a scientific view point. The author provides an analysis of the scientific basis of public health policies that have influenced the public’s, and the medical community’s, abilities to understand the virus and the disease. This is done in the context of providing insights into the biology of the virus, and exploring open questions, including its likely modes of transmission. The author has included citations from the scientific literature and the press, as well as quotes from expert interviews. The book will help sort out the fact from fiction, given the confusion that arose after the virus arrived in the US. The author used his objective research skills and knowledge of evolutionary genetics and molecular biology to find out what was known, and what questions remained unanswered, and even what questions remained unasked.
Written in an accessible style, it is intended for the educated general public, scientists, policy makers, health care workers, and politicians. It delves into the problems of trying to derive a logic-based understanding of a highly lethal emerging disease in 2014, when research funding cuts have gutted research institutions, and when public health institutions really were woefully unprepared. It is a highly distinct narrative analysis that is sure to stimulate new research and thinking in public policy. It will inform thousands of people of the nature of the virus, how it works, in terms they are likely to be able to understand. It will allow others to rapidly catch up with the story of Ebola.
