About Aurora’s Gold by K.J. Gillenwater:

Aurora’s Gold is set in the high stakes world of underwater dredge mining in small town Nome, Alaska with a female protagonist.

Aurora “Rory” Darling is the only female dredge owner in town. She’s got money problems, a disgruntled former employee, a complicated family, and an ex who won’t let go. After her father has a horrible accident, Rory must find a way to save the family dredging operation from financial disaster.

Enter Ben Abel, a former Navy diver with a mysterious past. He may be just the ticket to pull her butt out of the fire. She finds herself falling for him, but then discovers the truth: he’s on the run from the law. With time running out to get the gold, however, she has no choice but to work with him.

As competition intensifies and the danger ratchets up, Rory realizes it’s hard to trust anyone in a town full of liars and vengeful cheats who will do anything to make their fortune. And those she trusts the most might just be the ones she should watch out for.

Go on an Alaskan adventure to the underwater gold fields in Nome where danger lurks above and below the Bering Sea.

HIGHWAY TO ARMAGEDDON by HAROLD BLOEMER

HIGHWAY TO ARMAGEDDON by HAROLD BLOEMER

In the year 2150, a trio of young bounty hunters attempt to stop an enigmatic cult leader from unleashing nuclear Armageddon. An action-packed, sci-fi thriller.

In the not-too-distant future, climate change has wreaked havoc upon the world, decimating the global economy and bringing the United States and China perilously close to nuclear war. In order to make ends meet, 18-year olds Lance and Boom Boom work as bounty hunters. As it turns out, they’re pretty damn good at catching crooks. With their sassy and voluptuous side-kick, Krystal, there’s no criminal these teen bounty hunters can’t track down. Their streak of outwitting bad guys comes to a screeching halt, however, when one of their targets, Caesar Dominguez, turns the tables and puts a bounty on their heads… a cool $10 million.

If Lance, Krystal, and Boom Boom want to reach their 20s, they’ll need to cash in on a lucrative bounty that gives them the resources to disappear. They’re granted that opportunity when President Angela Klaxton puts out an unprecedented $25 million reward for the world’s most dangerous terrorist, cult leader Mikhail Rasputin. If they acquire that bounty, Lance and his female companions will be able to vanish into the shadows, living the rest of their lives in unimaginable comfort.

The task of hunting down Rasputin is easier said than done, of course. The trio must first traverse the crime-riddled wasteland of America, avoiding the throngs of bounty hunters and criminals who would love nothing more than to bring their severed heads to Caesar. And when they finally do reach Rasputin’s rumored hideout, they stumble upon a conspiracy that could reduce the Earth to radioactive ash. Lance, Krystal, and Boom Boom started this voyage with the intention of making some serious dough. They end up, however, being the only people standing in between a continued peace and a catastrophic nuclear war.

THE DEMON WITHIN A Finn Delaney New York City Mystery, Book 2 by Robert L. Bryan

About THE DEMON WITHIN A Finn Delaney New York City Mystery, Book 2 by Robert L. Bryan

Are there dark forces operating in the world that terrify us so much, we refuse to recognize their existence
In The Demon Within, novice private eye Finn Delaney inadvertently releases these dark forces when his two year old murder case takes him onto an unexpected, dark, and dangerous path.

We’re taken on a journey into a spiderweb of satanic rituals and the occult in the shadowy corners of New York City.

Despite the recent success of a newsworthy case where he located a missing girl, Finn is a man still wrestling with the reality of having his hopes, dreams, and family tradition of police work snatched from him. We follow Finn on his next big case – a two year old ritualistic murder where the mother of the convicted murderer is certain of her son’s innocence.

Finn’s lack of experience and knowledge in his new career is palpable. In over his head, out of his depth, and totally lacking experience, Finn unknowingly opens the door to a dark and dangerous world of which he knows nothing – demonic possession.

With the possibility of an innocent man being driven insane from two years inside a hospital for the criminally insane, Finn’s investigation has accomplished nothing except making an enemy of the high priest of a satanic church. Finn Delaney’s world is about to take a very dark turn

Make no mistake, this is a crime novel for today’s discerning reader, and with its undercurrents of dark rituals, the occult, demonic possession, and the effective use of plenty of dynamic comic relief from Finn’s irresponsible, but irreplaceable best friend, Kevin Malone, it zips along at a breakneck pace that will keep the most jaded reader on the edge of their seat.

Chilling Effect

About Chilling Effect:

A RUTHLESS ECO-TERRORIST.
A WOMAN DETERMINED TO STOP HIM.
Chilling Effect, R.J. Pineiro’s newest thriller, explores a world in the not too distant future where terrorism is taken to a new level, one with world-ending consequences.

“Fiction of the first order!”–Clive Cussler
“Fascinating, stupendous, and terrifying.”–Douglas Preston

You never know what you’re capable of . . . until the monster inside of you pushes you beyond your moral line in the sand.

These are the opening thoughts of former climatologist William Kiersted as he prepares to attack our delicate ecosystem. He is hell-bent on avenging his father’s death and will go to extremes of terrorism never before seen, all to strike a blow to those whose hubris led to his father’s demise. He will take full advantage of the greed and narcissism ever-present in the world, as well as the fragility of our planet to ecological terrorism, and use it to plot a scenario so grim, yet so compellingly real it could have been ripped from today’s news headlines.

Rachel Daly, star of the CIA’s Global Climate Counterterrorism Unit, has tracked Kiersted for months, from the Greenland ice sheet to the streets of Paris and the Siberian plains. She joins forces with SEAL Team Six and Russian Spetsnaz, in an attempt to spoil Kiersted’s plan.

Enter Doctors Natasha Shakhiva and Konrad Malone, experts in the study of the Earth’s permafrost, which gives clues to the planet’s past but also to our future. They are among the very few scientists in the world who understand the global implications of Kiersted’s plan to cripple humanity, if not outright destroy it.

Across three continents, the battle rages in this fast-paced, heart-rending thrill ride whose chilling effect will leave you fearful for the future we’re leaving our children.
