Witch Dust: A Paranormal Comedy Thriller (Witch Series Book 1) by Marilyn Messik

Witch Dust: A Paranormal Comedy Thriller (Witch Series Book 1) by Marilyn Messik

WHEN YOU GROW UP WATCHING YOUR FATHER
CUT YOUR MOTHER IN HALF MOST NIGHTS,
IT’S HARD TO DEFINE NORMAL.

Daughter of Adam Adamovitch, God’s gift to women and Theatre, and the lovely Ophelia, who can throw a hissy fit faster and farther than anyone; life for Sandra was always going to have challenges. When Adam’s wandering eye lights on yet another conquest, it proves a chorus girl too far, and Sandra’s caught in the reverberations of an acrimonious parting.

Coerced into restoring her depressed mother to the bosom of a family Sandra never knew existed, she’s sucked into a situation that even for her – and she’s had years of bizarre – is seriously unnerving. One thing’s for sure, the sooner she puts as much distance as possible between herself and the newfound nearest and dearest with their alarming tendencies and failing hotel business, the happier she’ll be.

She just has to sort a few small issues – a possessed chef, a hanged housemaid and a fly-on-the-wall documentary. And then there’s the wolf, the doppelgänger, the crazed shape-shifter, and an age-old grudge. Things slide swiftly from bad to farce and then turn a hell of a lot darker. One minute Sandra’s trying to save the family business, the next she’s battling to save their lives. You couldn’t make it up!

Forgotten People

About Forgotten People:

She wants her culture and country back. Independence was never ceded, and she will do whatever it takes to get it back, including sacrificing her life. When government peace talks stop, the revolution begins.

Should a government be obliged to negotiate a treaty with First Nations, ending decades of discrimination and disrespect for the Forgotten People, or will it defeat the revolutionaries fighting for justice in this gripping Australian political thriller?

Revolutionary leader, Nellie Millergoorra, campaigns for an Aboriginal homeland to preserve indigenous culture by advocating the prohibition of mining in Arnhem Land using a United Nations declaration to convince a disrespectful government to sign a treaty. Nellie will do whatever it takes to finally gain independence and end government regulation over her people.

When there is no agreement, she recruits mercenary special forces to inflame community chaos establishing an explosive aboriginal revolutionary movement. Using high-tech intervention, the mercenaries destablise the national energy grid starting a fanatical revolution with chaos on the streets. The mercenaries’ secret intent is to steal money when security systems are disabled when the energy grid is down.

A contemptuous government is forced to the negotiation table to agree on a peace agreement putting an end to the escalating hostile revolution. Millergoorra wants more and demands sovereignty for First Nations, proclaiming a partitioned homeland for Aboriginal people is non-negotiable.

In a surprising confrontation with a reluctant prime minister, who is threatened with an ultimatum he can’t ignore, Millergoorra negotiates a treaty whilst facing her own battle for survival.

Forgotten People is a gripping political thriller featuring surprising plot twists, compelling characters, and a kick-arse female heroine. If you like fast-paced, page-turning thrillers then Richard Evans’ third book will not disappoint you.

The Few

About The Few:

Gunnery Sergeant Jacob McCardle is the commander of the Marine Detachment at the US Embassy, New Delhi, when the president of the United States arrives on an official visit, the same man who, as a Congressman, sponsored the bill that had decimated the Corps in a cost-cutting effort. As the president arrives, the embassy is attacked and isolated by a mob of nationalists. With the Indian government seemingly unwilling to take action to restore order and with an ambitious vice-president seizing this as an opportunity to move up to the White House, it is up to Gunny McCardle and his small band of Marines to keep the president alive. Faced with tremendous odds, Gunny has to lead his Marines in an almost impossible task. That is nothing new to the US Marines. Impossible tasks are the Corps’ forte. But can his small detachment keep up the tradition of the Corps and succeed despite tremendous odds?

(The Few is Book 1 of the The Return of the Marines Trilogy. Book 2 in the series, The Proud, and Book 3, The Marines, are also available.)

Closer Than You Think by Lee Maguire

About Closer Than You Think by Lee Maguire:

Something is amiss…

Doctor Bryce Davison is a psychologist. His work, helping others, provides a respite from the dysphoria that troubles him in other settings. But cracks are beginning to appear in his psyche. He’s troubled by events from his past–one, years ago, and one, more recent. And if that’s not bad enough, his marriage is on the rocks. He’s finding it more challenging to get through his days. Depression, anxiety, loss, and grief are the companions surrounding him each day, and nights are the worst.

Bryce understands he must deal with his emotions, work through the difficulties. But, then, out of the blue, other things begin to happen. Unnerving things–a scent on a pillow. Cryptic email messages. Phone calls. Items out of place. The sense of being watched or followed.

Does Bryce have a stalker? Or has sensitivity crossed into paranoia? The things happening to him seem inconsequential; they can be explained away. Instances that most people wouldn’t take seriously. But as the days go by, and the threats become more palpable, Bryce knows he’s in trouble. Worse, others are targeted–a troubled patient in the residential treatment center; Bryce’s elderly mother.

Lives are at stake,including his. Can he get it together and save those close to him? Or will others die before Bryce becomes the final victim?

Red Chaser

About Red Chaser:

Jake McHenry spent five years in Germany after Hitler’s War, and came back laden with ill-gotten Nazi riches.
Back home in Brooklyn, he became a private detective because he needed a pretend job to hide the source of his riches. Mostly, however, he went to most Brooklyn Dodgers games at Ebbets Field and drank beer.
Then Joe McCarthy entered the picture. Tailgunner Joe wanted Jake to steal a secret list of celebrity American communists from the Ice Queen, a rich high-society commie named Arabella Van Dyk. The Ice Queen also happened to be the most beautiful woman that Jake had ever seen.
It was easy for Jake to break into the Ice Queen’s brownstone in Manhattan, but it unleashed Russians, North Koreans, J. Edgar Hoover, mobsters and one stunningly beautiful spy in a wild chase for the list.
In the background is the greatest pennant race in the history of Major League Baseball. It’s 1951, and the New York Giants chased the Brooklyn Dodgers for the National League Pennant. That’s the year that Bobby Thompson hit the “shot heard ’round the world.” The pennant—and Jake’s life—came down to the last inning and the last pitch at the Polo Grounds in New York City on Wednesday, October 3, 1951.
Red Chaser is fun, it’s 1950s noir, it’s Brooklyn, it keeps you guessing, and just when you think you’ve figured it all out, you find out you’ve figured wrong. Have fun reading Red Chaser today.
