Rabbit Moon by Jan D Payne

Rabbit Moon by Jan D Payne

They say you can’t go back home…but Marin Sinclair doesn’t think answering a plea for help from a dying friend is something that will turn out to be life-threatening. Dinetah, the Navajo Nation and the place she grew to adulthood, holds some dark memories she’d rather not revisit—like betrayal, suicide, and heartbreak—but what about her life then would make someone want to kill her?

Sgt. Justin Blue Eyes of the Navajo Nation police force shares a connection with Marin from the past, and he has the same question plus a few of his own…like why the Nuclear Regulatory Commission would sent agents to investigate the abandoned uranium mines on reservation land.
For answers, he needs to find Marin Sinclair, and it looks like she’s gone off the grid—on her own in the Lukachukai mountains with a killer close behind.

Rabbit Moon is currently available to read on Kindle Unlimited, and has recently been published as an audiobook on Amazon as well! Book Two in the Navajoland Marin Sinclair series is due to be published soon—thanks for your patience!

Operation Storm King

About Operation Storm King:

Operation Storm King is an explosive alternative history about the death of President Franklin Roosevelt. It will take you on a heart-stopping journey, challenging your view of reality.

Historians tell us that President Franklin Delano Roosevelt died of a stroke in Warm Springs, Georgia. Operation Storm King tells of a shocking, yet entirely plausible alternative version, an audacious Nazi raid to kidnap FDR from West Point.

Starting in January 1945, “Operation Storm King” follows a small team of Nazi commandos as they penetrate New York Harbor, and sail up the Hudson River in the revolutionary Type XXI U-Boat. Their mission: kidnap the American President and force the United States into an alliance with Germany against Russia. When FDR’s heroic but ultimately suicidal actions foil the plot, Vice-President Truman covers up the kidnapping, and creates the myth of FDR’s peaceful death to prevent public panic.

Seventy-five years later, Mai Zhao, a hard driving woman West Point cadet discovers the shattered U-Boat wreck in the Hudson River, and uncovers its shocking secrets. The U.S. national security apparatus goes on alert. Zhao’s unstoppable efforts to uncover the truth threatens to undermine the American public’s faith in government. Washington mobilizes powerful political and legal forces to stop her.

With fierce battles and sacrifices, action-packed scenes, and well-crafted characters, “Operation Storm King” is a must-read for fans of explosive wartime adventures, gritty historical war fiction, and riveting alternative history epics. For fans of best-selling authors like Philip K. Dick, Robert Harris, or Tom Clancy and those looking for a detailed techno thriller, Operation Storm King is a book you won’t want to put down.
