Unfathomed  

uncharted_final_ebook_smallAbout Unfathomed:

The M/S Atlantica, one of the most advanced cruise ships in the world, is lost.

Land has disappeared. Fuel, food and hope begin to dwindle.

After months recuperating in hospital, US Marine, Jack Cohen hoped a Caribbean cruise would help him recover from the horrific injuries he sustained fighting in the Middle East. Instead, when the ship is attacked, he is once again thrust into battle to protect Atlantica against the ruthless enemy hunting her, and the insidious threat already aboard.

On these mysterious and uncharted seas, where even the compass shows the sun rising to the west, Atlantica’s salvation may lie with a Navy warship which is as lost as they are. Together, they must pool their resources and use every means available to defend themselves while discovering what has happened to them.

And the rest of the world.

Author Bio:
For as long as I can remember I’ve always enjoyed science fiction, especially the grand masters of the genre, Arthur C Clarke, Stephen Baxter, Alistair Reynolds and many more and finally decided to try my hand.

I hold a degree in Aerospace Technology and won the opportunity to work in Milan on the design of a Satellite, got a Pilots License (before I learnt to drive) which led to the best weekend job going, taking Air Cadets flying in a motor gliders and for a year was an officer cadet in the TA.

After all that I had a bit of a quarter life crisis and decided that I would succumb to the kid in me and follow a career in chasing bad guys. That led to a huge hole in my life though, the desire to think about what I consider ‘the big issues’ a desire I’m addressing with my writing.

Nowadays I’ve calmed down a bit and enjoy spending time traveling, seeing what the world has to offer, scuba diving, long distance running and writing of course.



All That Remains  

All-That-Remains-SmallAbout All That Remains:

Meet Detective Harvey Sam, a small town cop who wants two impossible things—a happy family and a perfect solve rate.

Harvey’s training at The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children prepared him for the most important case of his career to date, the abduction of eight-year-old Gabriel Wheeler. Nothing, however, could prepare him for the boy’s blame-shifting mother from hell who shoots up instead of alerting police when the boy goes missing. Nor is Harvey equipped to deal with the heartbreak when his girlfriend leaves him on the same night, taking Effie, the non-biological young daughter Harvey adores.

The case goes cold when Harvey fails to interview Effie’s best friend, the only witness able to identify the perpetrator’s car. As police resources are wasted on dead ends and wrong suspects, Gabriel receives unlikely help to escape from Willard Crawley, a simple-minded abductor seeking a replacement for the infant brother he accidentally suffocated years before.

Book 1 in the Missing & Exploited Suspense Series, ALL THAT REMAINS explores childhood resiliency in a dangerous adult world.

PRAISE FOR “TORCH DAY”
“Torch Day includes a lot, I mean a lot of action. John Windsor adds a very interesting twist, which I will not reveal here. The ending is tense, which is why I read this genre.” KenCrab

“Torch Day rings a true bell in our current world of espionage and crazy politics, with characters who last long after the read. They aren’t plastic superheroes, they are normal people dealing with extraordinary circumstances–like us. Couldn’t stop reading–disturbing and uplifting in the same breath. Like Shakespeare, the plot is complicated, the good guys aren’t all good, and the bad guys, though not all bad, go beyond evil.” ··· Kate Motley

Author Bio:
Growing up in Phoenix, AZ, John developed a passion for compelling stories as he devoured the whole series of “Hardy Boys” novels. All those cliffhangers, and trying to figure out what was going to happen next? He was hooked. He graduated to thrillers after college, but he loves great stories of any type.

He developed his ear for dialog and dramatic structure during his years as an actor in New York (including a one-night stint as a Broadway star!). He expanded his creative brain in marketing and advertising. And, when an idea for a novel suddenly took up residence in his head, he plunged blindly forward, little aware of what a consuming experience it would be. One novel led to two, and a third one is percolating right now.



Made to Measure Man: A Weissenberger Romantic Suspense Novel, Book One  

M2MM2About Made to Measure Man: A Weissenberger Romantic Suspense Novel, Book One:

Garth Matthews, dean of Chicago’s newest law school, doesn’t see it coming.
And if brilliant Matthews can’t see it coming, nobody can.
So it’s not looking good.

Naturally, Matthews is thrilled to receive a multimillion-dollar award for his educational leadership. But before he knows it, he becomes entangled with the shrewd, gin-guzzling, hysterically funny matriarch of the bestowing European charity—and the intrigue doesn’t end there. Clues are mounting that the foundation is really a cover for international art theft, and that Matthews is being set up as its prime suspect.

Then–as if this weren’t complicated enough–Matthews finds himself utterly captivated by Julia, the matriarch’s beautiful, enigmatic granddaughter.
Together, Matthews and Julia share quiet, tucked-away restaurants in New York City, fine wines, and warm, wide-ranging intellectual conversation. For the first time since his wife’s death, Matthews feels solace and a growing, tender love in his relationship with Julia.

That is, when he isn’t trying to unravel the plot spinning around the foundation, with his own neck on the line.

And where does Julia fit in? Could she be his true love–indeed, his soul mate? Or is she part of the web luring him in with her wiles–possibly even the family’s mastermind?

Race through Matthews’ ten life-changing days that swirl with false identities, threats of criminal embezzlement, and a building–possibly dangerous–passion, days that will change his life forever!

Author Bio:
The always-entertaining Glen Weissenberger may be a new novelist, but he’s hardly new to writing!

The Harvard-educated former law school Dean has published hundreds of books on the Law of Evidence, his work recognized by a New York Court as the most authoritative treatise on the subject. Now, as an expert in tales “stranger than fiction,” he brings his four decades of experience to his cleverly crafted, thrillingly romantic novels of suspense!

Glen’s passions range widely: an accomplished magician, he is now working on a pop culture book that will be a fun and scholarly look at how magic is depicted in Hollywood films; he is an enthusiastic chef with a top-notch smoke-detector installed; he is a vintage car aficionado; he fights for social and legal advances;; he has traveled the nooks and crannies of the world; he is a fan of a well-aged scotch.

And he would love to hear from you! Please contact him directly at The Weissenberger Artistic Alliance,” A Creative Cultural Consortium for Charitable and Developing Artist Support.”

The Alliance was conceived to raise funds to support Glen’s two charities (one academic and one for cancer research, his being a grateful 12 year cancer survivor), and also to provide educational stipends (workshops, weekend retreats, etc.) to emerging multi-media “Citizen Artists” (acclaimed cellist’s Yo-Yo Ma’s term), those creative talents who are dedicated to using their artistic gifts to advance social justice. (web address below).

If you contact him there we can also keep you updated on new book releases, press events, book signings, and … there is even a TV movie in the works!

Slow Burn by Jolene Wolfe  

IMG_5479About Slow Burn by Jolene Wolfe:

This story is for the gals who put 110% into everything they do and deserve to be recognized for their effort. The main character in this story, Caitlyn is used to putting everything into her work and is thrown off when she catches the attention of her undeniably sexy cowerker. Dash has decided to pursue Caitlyn with the kind of relentless focus she trains on her work. And things get messy when a fire erupts downtown.
Besides the steamy pursuit storyline, I wanted to shine a flashlight on one woman in an interesting career because I think there’s room to see so much more of that. We are just starting to see strong, powerful and successful women represented in the media but there is room for so many more voices and role models out there. As for the firefighting element, who doesn’t love a handsome modern day man’s man? Not to mention all of the adrenaline packed adventures that come with a fire station.
Get Slow Burn for only 0.99 or better yet, between November 5th and 9th for the free promotion!

Author Bio:
T. Jackson King (Tom) is a professional archaeologist and journalist. He writes hard science fiction, anthropological SciFi, dark fantasy/horror and contemporary fantasy/magic realism–but that didn’t happen until he was 38. Before then, college years spent in Paris and in Tokyo led Tom into antiwar activism, hanging out with some Japanese hippies and learning how often governments lie to their citizens. Temporary sanity returned when Tom worked in a radiocarbon lab at UC Riverside and earned an MA degree in Archaeology from UCLA. His interests in ancient history, ancient cultures and journalism got him several government agency jobs that paid the bills, led him to roam the raw landscape of the Western United States, and helped him and his wife Leslee raise three kids. A funny thing happened on the way to normality. By the time he was 38 and doing federal arky work in Colorado, Tom’s first novel FIRST CONTACT was a stage play in his head that wouldn’t go away. So he wrote it down. It got rejected. His next novel was published as RETREAD SHOP (Warner Books, 1988). It was off to the writing races and Tom’s many voyages of imaginative discovery have led to 24 published novels, a book of poetry, and a conviction that when Humans reach the stars, we will find them crowded with space-going Aliens. We will be the New Kids On The Block! Tom lives in Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA and hangs with a group of smart and tolerant Westerners. Divorce has taught him to smile a lot and to work at being a Nice Guy. Still, he is pretty weird. Has been since fourth grade when he began reading SciFi. Since then, he and Authority have rarely been in agreement. Readers are welcome to visit his T. Jackson King Facebook page. If you Friend him you will get the latest news on his writing efforts!
