The book recalls the exploits of a wartime dad as a spy with the OSS, and the post-war memories of the havoc wreaked upon an unsuspecting son by his well-meaning father. It reaches across generational barriers and speaks to the hearts of parents and their children. It is an easy-read, difficult to put down, and impossible to forget.

A New Supernatural Mystery Hits The Cyber Shelves
Scepter Rand is a beautiful psychic who heads up "The Spookies," a paranormal investigation team with a truckload of modern ghost-hunting equipment. Assisted by the spirit of her late butler, Fishwick, Spector and her two partners, ex-police officer Pete Brennan and wheeler-dealer Kevin Keeley, are hot on the trail of a dangerous poltergeist. Their investigation leads them to the northern moors of England and Melmerby Manor, a brooding 18th century estate overflowing with pirated DVDs. When the DVDs are swapped for a dead body, The Spookies team is fingered for the crime.

Now they must race against time to prove their innocence by trying to make sense of ghostly text messages, crazed drivers determined to run them off the road and an enraged spirit seeking revenge for his untimely death. Their investigation draws them into a world of seedy mobsters, millionaire pirated movie producers, a gutter journalist looking for a story at any cost, and the grumbling spirits of an English stately home.

But it's all just another night's work for The Spookies team in this supernatural mystery that will tickle your funnybone while doling out a healthy measure of goosebumps.

The Chosen One is sure to fulfill the hunger for the suspense, action and adventure.

 
Kathleen Dante's Dreamwalker Released Today!
Damon Venizelos has a gift. A Dreamwalker trained by the U.S. government to infiltrate his enemies' dreams, he makes a powerful weapon. When not on the job, Damon uses his talent for the much more enjoyable task of seducing women in their dreams . . .

Master thief Aurora diScipio has a gift, too. Tall or short, young or old, Rory can shapeshift into any human form, making it easy to get what she wants.

Rory is plagued by hot and heavy dreams, only to wake up completely aroused, craving something - someone she can't just go out and steal.

When Damon's agency summons him to help find a missing bomb, possibly in the hands of terrorists, they also need a qualified thief. Damon is only too happy to track down Rory, especially if she's the sensual beauty he remembers. But Rory keeps slipping out of his net, in her dreams and in reality. Soon both predator and prey crave a real-life connection - drawing them ever closer to something hotter than their wildest dreams . . . in this steamy intrigue by Kathleen Dante

Catch Rally Fever With This New Black Velvet Seductions Release
Marley Prescott's father vanished. Then her sister left her son on Marley's doorstep and disappeared into the night on the back of a Harley with a man Marley had never seen before.

With the child dependant on her, Marley loaded her car with supplies and headed to Sturgis, South Dakota for the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally where painting leathers during that one feverish week could earn her enough money to support herself and her child for months.

Rally with its undercurrent of sex and danger made Marley uneasy and restless long before she met Luke and long before she learned he shared a past with her sister and a claim to the child she loved as her own.

But when murder stuck close to home and the evidence pointed to someone close to her, Marley didn't know who to trust.
