THE ACCURSED DAMNED By Jordan Blake Fantasy/Horror

Muddling aimlessly through life, Shane Coppet could care less about pivotal matters of universal truths. He has only one thing on his mind: how to tell his lifelong friend that he feels more for her than he’s let on all these years. Before he has the chance to do that, Lucas Trenton enters rather brusquely into the picture. From the instant they meet, Shane’s life becomes forfeited, and he can’t understand why—nor does he believe it when Lucas tries to explain it to him. To counter the damage, Lucas drags Shane to Avalon, what Lucas professes to be a sanctuary that even God can’t penetrate. Only in Shane’s mind, if that were true, it would mean he was in Hell. 380 pages.

OBOROTEN by Jamie Whittenheim Fantasy/Mystery

Peter Stevenson has a secret he’s well prepared to kill for. He’s not really Special Agent Peter Stevenson, as the FBI believes, or Pyotr Stefanov, as his enemies suspect.

THEATER OF THE DRAGON by Daniel Archer Political-Legal Thriller

Sadly, a horrible crime that appears to be a robbery gone wrong isn't what it seems. Unfortunately, even a clear-cut case of domestic homicide, as horrible as it seems, would be more acceptable than what Detective David Riley discovers behind a complex and sinister game involving a suspect more cunning and diabolical than the worst psychopath he’s ever come across. As evidence points him in an unlikely direction, he and his investigative team must pursue a trail of political intrigue and conspiracy that leads to the prospect of a country heading toward an explosive revolution.

Identifying and catching this shrewd killer is only the beginning of Riley’s problems. As he gathers evidence to convince his closest associates of the nefarious character of their prime suspect, he must also deal with the unexpected consequences of taking on a man he never wished to make his enemy. Given the knowledge he now possesses, he would rather never have taken the case that rather innocently had fallen into his lap. But since that’s happened, he and his team must not only figure out a way of taking this man into custody, but also to find a way to prosecute him for the crimes he’s committed and stop the eventual revolution he is well on his way to having started. 414 pages.
