AVENGING ANGEL: Love and Death in Old Brooklyn by Charles S. Isaacs

About AVENGING ANGEL: Love and Death in Old Brooklyn by Charles S. Isaacs:

A riveting tale of revenge, survival and redemption, wrapped around an unlikely love story and set against an urban backdrop corrupted by violence against women and racism.

Following a racially motivated rape by three Ku Klux Klansmen, 12-year-old Cassandra Monroe vows revenge. After eight years of training, now a strikingly beautiful assassin, she accomplishes her mission.

Her campaign continues with solitary walks through dark city streets, hoping to be assaulted by men with bad intentions. Those entrapped by her spider’s web pay dearly for their efforts.

Surrounded by white men one night, she’s rescued by Mike Borelli, an Italian-American passerby. A stormy up-and-down relationship ensues. Ultimately, as her rage matures into purposeful action, and as he begins to see the world through her eyes, they become a team.

Along the way, they encounter serial killers, wife-beaters, actual and would-be rapists, gangsters, crooked cops, a kidnapper and a pedophile priest, as well as numerous women in desperate need of their help. Beneath all the action, though, is the blossoming of a most unusual love story.

A post-apocalyptic human resistance sci-fi fantasy novel

A lone hiker isolated on the trail, encounters a blinking light in the forest. His curiosity overtakes him. He leaves the trail to investigate the blinking light and encounters a trail of dead soldiers in the woods whose deaths cannot be explained. They appear to have fallen dead where they stood. The trail of dead bodies leads him to a seemingly deserted military bunker where he learns that the military has been conducting a project in artificial intelligence in secret. As he enters further into the compound, he comes to realize that he is not alone and that there is something lurking in the isolation of the bunker.

Meanwhile, a sole surviving inmate finds himself trapped in his cell post-apocalypse. He discovers that he also may not be alone as he begins searching for a means to escape his confinement. There is a presence haunting the prison block. It is unclear of this entity’s intent. Can he escape his confinement before death comes calling for him as well?

What has caused the apocalypse? What is it that haunts the bunker and is it the same something that haunts the prison? Are these events related?

From the apocalypse surges a new evolution of the world and emerges a modern-day cyber-Frankenstein. The surviving humans resist the threat of human extinction in this post-apocalyptic world as they seek assistance from an unlikely ally.

Codename Poltergeist: Some call him a ghost by William Joel

Codename Poltergeist: Some call him a ghost by William Joel

The CIA and presidential cabinet members covertly enter into an agreement with the Palestinians to remove certain key Israeli government figures in a plan to enable the United States to claim that they engineered peace in the Middle East and gain the favor of Arabic countries and likely gain favor to increase energy supply. Sentinel, a group of angelic-type beings who monitor the Earth, are very concerned that the United States could be igniting a major conflict if the Israelis learn of the plan and retaliate. Taneen, an unscrupulous and deadly CIA operative convinces the CIA deputy director of operations to eliminate the agency’s most highly regarded operative, James Halyard, Codename Poltergeist, believing Halyard was a possible threat to their plans. Taneen won’t admit it, but he’s scared of Halyard who moves like a ghost through his missions and is jealous of Halyard’s deadliness. The attempt to kill Halyard fails, but they kill Halyard’s wife in the process. An angelic-like being from the Sentinel rescues Halyard who was seriously injured in the explosion that practically destroyed the hotel room he was sharing with his wife. Sentinel heals Halyard of his wounds. They have been monitoring Halyard for some time and give him the option of becoming an agent for their purposes with highly augmented mental and physical abilities. He agrees and truly becomes Poltergeist able to move silently with the grace and ease of a large predator. His muscular strength and agility, hearing, vision, and cognitive abilities are highly elevated, and he has the ability to move through the transparency to escape from confined spaces. Sentinel sends Poltergeist to unravel and thwart the conspiracy. Even with Poltergeist’s impressive ability he finds Taneen to be elusive and very deadly. Poltergeist encounters several unforeseen allies, a highly capable and equally lethal MOSSAD agent, Deborah Eisman, who at first sought to eliminate him and a crusty homicide detective, Harry Sullivan who helps Poltergeist battle Taneen and the CIA.

Grimm’s Guilt: Demon Dawgs MC San Diego – Book Four by K.L. Barstow

Grimm

When our someone murdered our previous President, we discovered his darkest secrets. Secrets that almost destroyed our entire club and turned me into a human trafficker. I didn’t know it then. In fact, it took me ten years to realize what I’d done. I thought I was rescuing a young woman from low-life drug dealers who were pimping her out. I saved her, killed them, and returned the girl to her loving father. Only I just discovered that the couple I killed to save her were her parents and the man I delivered her to was the low-life. But that isn’t the worst part. You see, the couple had another daughter, and she witnessed everything.

Kingsley

My only clue is that he’s a member of the Demon Dawgs. I take a job as their bartender, hoping to gather enough information to bring in the cops. I want them to answer for what they’ve done. But I’m not prepared for what I find. These aren’t the bad guys. They welcome me into their lives and give me a genuine family. And then there’s him. The man who kidnapped my sister. He sees me. He wants me. Trouble is, I want him, too.

Trip To America by Liana Margiva

Trip To America by Liana Margiva

“This night, when the sky will be veiled by darkness, which will swallow Earth, I’ll come to you–not in person but in a dream when I’m free as a bird. I’ll come to see you, to please my heart regardless of the fact that my heart doesn’t matter to you anymore, because it loves you like it did when it still believed in your love. This night, when the world slips into peaceful sleep, when the stars come out to replace the sun, I’ll come to you to please my eyes, which still yearn to see you. Put your arms around me, kiss me in your dream, and deceive my heart again, as you did before. Kiss my eyes to make them believe you’re the one who you pretended to be. The world without you is called loneliness, and loneliness is soul pain, yearning for you. If just once I could visit you in a dream, to awaken your sleeping heart, to rekindle the fire that used to burn in it, I would be lonely no more.”

Caught in time by Michael Owino

Caught in time by Michael Owino

In 1983 a car was burned in a village in Northern Germany. One person died and the culprit who was employed in a major German dairy was seriously injured. Could this have been a personal dispute or were there perhaps traces that needed to be covered up? Its pre-history started a good forty years previously. A division of German soldiers received an unusual assignment: to empty the Winter Palace in Leningrad of works of art and to send them to Germany. Hitler had plans to set up an impressive collection of art, which the Nazis had stolen at various locations around Europe. In the first instance, the works of art were hidden in an underground bunker in a field near Munich. In Berlin, a museum inspector lost his job when his museum for modern art was closed, and he got by doing menial jobs. One day he is given a special assignment: to catalog the stolen works of art for the new museum. He had no alternative but to say yes in order to put bread on the table. However, he plans sophisticated revenge. But one day all things went wrong… Seventy years later valuable jewels from the court of the Russian Tsar turn up with the director of a large German company. Possibly this has something to do with a Dane who was involved in fakes until he disappeared without a trace. The Danish police have been put on the case, but their German colleagues go to great lengths in order to avoid scandal. With its many fine details, this book gives a remarkable insight into life during the Second World War, from soldiers who freeze in the Russian winter to ordinary people in Germany who try to live life in their own way. The reader is given a great deal of perspective as well as the opportunity to postulate.

In this riveting adventure thriller, D.W. Whitlock explores the darker aspects of the human soul and the struggle to do what’s right in a shadowy world defined by violence and death.
