Released Today, 

by Todd Merer




When the world’s most notorious cartel bosses get arrested, they call Benn Bluestone.

He’s convinced himself that only an insanely rich client can guarantee him a lavish retirement.


When the New Year begins with three promising cases, Bluestone thinks he’s hit pay dirt. But then the cases link dangerously together—and to his own past. Does the mysterious drug kingpin Sombra hold the key to Bluestone’s ambitions?

Released Today "Little Boy Lost" a Racially Charged Thriller




Attorney Justin Glass is the scion of the first family of St. Louis politics, but depression and the death of his wife have reduced him to working for pennies in a ramshackle law office on the decaying North Side. Pennies are all that eight-year-old Tanisha Walker has to offer when she walks into Glass’s empty office one day, asking him to take up the case of her missing brother. Glass’s half-hearted inquiries turn up empty—until his contact at the St. Louis Police Department calls with the grisly news. Devon Walker’s murdered body has been found mangled in the woods—along with 12 other black teenagers, all discarded like trash in a mass grave. 

The timely thriller LITTLE BOY LOST (Thomas & Mercer; On-sale August 1st, 2017) tells the all-too-familiar story of a community in pain and a legal system that doesn’t work for them. When the police show indifference, the families of what the media is calling the “Lost Boys” have no one to turn to but their overwhelmed lawyer. But Glass has his hands full with his own family life, which is blowing up before him. His father, St. Louis’s long-serving congressman, returns home to announce that he is retiring—and wants Justin to succeed him, betraying the arrangement that had been long planned by his politically ambitious brother, Lincoln. Glass must sort out his feelings in his turbulent yet dispassionate extramarital affair with an old friend—who also happens to be the sitting mayor of St. Louis. And as he trains his attention elsewhere, Glass’s headstrong daughter, Sam, begins rebelling at school, in ways that threaten to become a political liability.

After years of standing still, Glass must now act in order to survive. As rumors about his political campaign spill out into the open, he finds that he has become a vessel for the pent-up grievances of St. Louis’s inner city. Clients pack into his previously empty office with stories of being wrongfully accused of crimes—their uncomfortable truths as ignored by the white establishment as the fate of the Lost Boys. As Glass maneuvers a justice system stacked against the black community, he grows increasingly distrustful of his allies of convenience in the city government. Is their plodding investigation into the Lost Boys murders the result of racial prejudice...or a cover-up of an inside job? As police violence descends upon his community—and even Glass himself—he takes the investigation into his own hands. With the help of an alluring, whip-cracking assistant and a shady computer programmer, Glass stares down the twin dangers of a vengeful political machine and a merciless killer who knows Glass is on his tail. Feeling the heat from all sides, Glass resorts to one last desperate gambit that could destroy his personal life, shatter his professional ambitions, and endanger the very people he is trying to save.


On Amazon

In a city divided and broken, this revelation will set it on fire…
Attorney Justin Glass’s practice, housed in a shabby office on the north side of Saint Louis, isn’t doing so well that he can afford to work for free. But when eight-year-old Tanisha Walker offers him a jar full of change to find her missing brother, he doesn’t have the heart to turn her away.
Justin had hoped to find the boy alive and well. But all that was found of Devon Walker was his brutally murdered body—and the bodies of twelve other African American teenagers, all discarded like trash in a mass grave. Each had been reported missing. And none had been investigated.

As simmering racial tensions explode into violence, Justin finds himself caught in the tide. And as he gives voice to the discontent plaguing the city’s forgotten and ignored, he vows to search for the killer who preys upon them.

Memoir with stunning photos:



A life spanning close to 100 years is noteworthy, if only because of its longevity. The rich life of a woman committed to a professional vision ahead of its time, filled with glamour, excitement and adventure, is truly remarkable. Narrated in her own words, this is the story of such a woman, Eva Maze, who, from the time she left Romania as a teenager in 1939, dreamed of being a ballet dancer, and through a series a circumstances, became instead one of the most successful theatrical impresarios in Europe – with a career spanning more than 40 years.


Now in her nineties, Maze looks back at the path and passion that led her from Bucharest to the United States as an immigrant, and then, as a married woman, back again to Europe and Asia, where she found her professional calling.


Set against key historical events of the 20th century, including the building of the Berlin Wall, the massacre at the 1972 Munich Olympic Games, as well as the rise and fall of Pan American Airlines, Maze’s fascinating past is brought to life through a combination of serious commentary and amusing anecdotes about the risks and rewards of the business side of theater and dance, some of the personalities who were part of those worlds from the 1940s to the 1990s, her own motivation for being an impresario, and her personal life. Her narration is supported by more than 250 captivating historical and modern images going back to her birth in 1922.


Representing artists and companies abroad from a vast array of talent in the performing arts of the time – including The Alvin Ailey Dance Company, The Living Theatre, and The Swingle Singers – this unique woman became a prolific producer of close to 100 different types of theatrical programs from the world of dance, music, mime, cabaret, and drama.



Chick-lit, Romantic Comedy:



Jane's life on the face of it isn't really too bad...she has great friends like party girl Natasha who's always up for a laugh and her close pal Polly, always there for her and of course her loving parents, but things could still be better...

Most people she knows are either married or have kids and she has been single a while now and wonders if a good man is ever to be encountered again. The single life is far from a quiet one for Jane however, as she is constantly getting dragged to night clubs and bars by Natasha and the crew as well as enduring a particularly boozy weekend away at the seaside!

Jane loves a lot about her life, disregarding rude plumbers in her flat and dealing with annoying superiors and a smug sister, but as a certain someone takes her eye, is everything about to change and get a whole lot more serious or is the single life determined to keep her captive a while longer yet...



Suspense, Thriller:




It’s the bitter winter of 1948. The young driver for a Chicago gangster flees his boss’s retribution carrying a valise full of stolen mob money. Suffering from an infected bullet wound received during his escape, he leaves his California-bound train and takes refuge in a dying Nebraska railroad town where he encounters a corrupt sheriff and a crippled war veteran who has been traumatized both by his combat experience and a tragic event back home that took place while he was fighting in Europe.

  Antony 

 Author Bio: “Once Bitten, Twice Die” is the debut novel from Antony J. Stanton. The book is the first of ‘The Blood of the Infected’ series, in the ‘post-apocalyptic action thriller’ genre. Stanton was born in London in 1970. Even as a child he always dreamed of becoming a published author, and he started to write a book. But, having watched the film ‘Top Gun,’ he was swayed into a becoming a military pilot. After no more than a glancing blow of a career in the British Royal Air Force he decided that his long term future lay elsewhere and he became a commercial pilot and remains thus to this day. Hence much of this trilogy was written all around the world, generally at unsociable times when jet-lag meant that normal people were asleep. During a holiday with three friends, a bet was made amongst them. Each had a task to fulfil within the year – Stanton’s was to write a book. A little late, but five years on and his challenge has been completed. Three times. His period spent in the RAF helped him write the military survival aspects of this book, and a kidnapping incident in Kazakhstan and shooting in Ghana, amongst other ‘adventures’, provided him with a dark well of experience to draw from. Life is, after all, one big adventure. A combination of the aforementioned, along with his love of the darker sides of literature, and the results are this novel and the next two in the trilogy. And all it took was the impetus of a friendly challenge to spur him on to his creative dream… He still lives in South London and is very much looking forward to watching his friend fulfilling his part of the challenge: demonstrating his (not-so) newly acquired break-dancing skills, surely a sight to behold.

Spotlight of The Grave Tracker



At the Phoenix, AZ State Mental Hospital, murderer Anthony Falcone escapes after thirteen years of maliciously being drugged and held with the criminally insane, which he was not. His crime boss father bribed the head of the mental asylum to put and keep him there in order to prevent his son from throwing him to the wolves and cutting a deal with the District Attorney. Anthony’s goal is revenge. Against those who connived to put him there, and those who stopped him from a chance to gain parole from prison, where he really did belong. Anthony blames everyone responsible for the rage that set his life’s path in motion, including an innocent boy who was adopted out as an infant. Woe to all who cross his path.

With the survival of a thirteen-year-old boy in the balance, Paul Meyers, a genealogist veteran who is called The Grave Tracker, is lured into joining the hunt and intent to intercept Anthony and find the unknown boy first with his own unique set of skills. Time is running out…

Chapter One begins thusly: Anthony Falcone had been waiting thirteen years for the opportunity that he now had. He crouched down behind a blue van and carefully scanned the area to make sure none of the guards had spotted him. He tried the doors to several cars before finding an unlocked SUV, and he was in luck with this one. There was a canvas tarp on the floor in the back along with a variety of camping gear, and after crawling in Anthony was able to conceal himself under the tarp quite effectively. Visiting hours at the Arizona State Mental Hospital on the corner of Van Buren and 24th Street were almost over and he wouldn't have long to wait before he would be out the gates. He grew up on the streets of Phoenix and knew places to hide where no one would ever think to look for him, regardless of how many years had passed. He tangibly smelled his impending freedom and felt a rush go to his head. “Calm down,” Tony whispered to himself. “I’ve waited a long time for this chance and I can’t blow it now.”

It was difficult for Tony to restrain his excitement, but he needed to stay motionless in order to avoid being discovered. He knew that if the owner of the SUV didn't come soon, the attendant’s body he had left in the bathroom would be discovered and the gates would automatically be closed the instant the alarms went off. If they caught him, he wouldn’t get another chance like this, and then he would be trapped forever.

Tony struggled to keep his breathing shallow and silent when he heard footsteps approaching the passenger door. The door opened and he felt the SUV’s springs give as someone of substantial weight slid into the driver's seat, click the seat belt on, and start the engine. Loud country music blasted through the speakers as soon as the engine kicked in and, for a split second, Tony panicked as he misinterpreted the music for the hospital sirens starting up. He mindlessly tensed up in readiness to attack the unsuspecting driver when reality kicked in, just in time to avoid disaster. Gradually he relaxed as the SUV began to roll out of the parking lot and toward the gates that led to his freedom.
The vehicle pulled up in front of the guard booth and Tony heard the guard laughing and joking with the driver. He quietly began whispering over and over to himself, “Don’t let them look back here; don’t let them find me.” Sweat trickled into his eyes and he was sure that they could smell his fear.

When the SUV began to move forward once again Tony had to suppress his immense relief. Now all he had to do was to wait for the right opportunity to leave the vehicle without being seen. He didn't want anyone reporting where he was since he knew he had scores to settle before his probable death. If his father didn’t have him killed first, he would kill himself before he allowed anyone to take him back to that horrible place where his father had secured his imprisonment.




Also by Teresa Marotta

The Reviewer #ShortReadsSaturdays (REVIEW)

The Reviewer 



Author: MK Alexander
Category: Short Story, Revenge Thriller, Dark Comedy
Suitable for: 12+
My Rating: 5 Stars
Format Read for Review: Kindle
Pages: 14

Description: This is a short story about an indie-author driven mad by a negative review from a villainous reviewer.

In Short: If you enjoy short stories and revenge thriller type genres you should give this book a read. It is exciting yet suspenseful, and witty yet dark.

Pros: This short story is very well written and fast and fun to read. I would definitely read more by this author. Even though it is short there is a lot of character development for our "protagonist" who is a struggling author. We get to know him through watching his daily life and struggle to promote his books. He is a very sympathetic character and I felt for him when the reviewer appeared and things escalated. The story is thought provoking. The ending even left me wondering, so I translated the two Ukrainian words and was pretty shocked! This short story had a killer ending. The author was really driven mad!  

Cons: I have no notable issues with this book.

Parent's Guide: Mostly clean. This story contains themes of blackmail and violence. No gore or extended graphic scenes. No swearing or sex.
                         
Translations I found for the ending:
Shcho: What?
Nemaye: No

Dizzy in Durango (REVIEW)



Dizzy in Durango

Andy Veracruz Mystery #3 



Author: D.R. Ransdell
Category: Murder Mystery Suspense Thriller
Suitable for: 17+*
My Rating: 5 Stars
Format Read for Review: Paperback copy from the Author
Pages: 214

Description: Set in both Mexico and Arizona this story takes a while ride that begins with good ol' Andy watching a woman's bag for her. When she disappears and he is left holding her mysterious bag he is unwittingly thrown into another adventure looking for two missing women. The mystery takes deadly turns and Andy and his friends find themselves trying to not only find the missing women but also reunite stolen children with their family all while avoiding a very dangerous and powerful person.

In Short: This is a great series for mystery novel lovers. I found "Dizzy in Durango" to be more of a suspenseful thriller than the previous book. If you are looking for a very well written series with realistic characters look no further. Enjoy a good mystery while watching the slow natural development of Andy and Rachel's relationship and Andy's professional journey as a musician.

Another stunning tale by D.R. Ransdell.

Pros: Even though these books are part of a series they can be read alone! I read book 2, "IslandCasualty" before this one and absolutely loved it! It was also our Book of theMonth in July! That book gave me the background on Rachel and Andy and their relationship but pertinent details from past books are explained in this story, so you wont miss out. Although these books are all stand-alones if the series appeals to you, read it in order, you wont regret it! The story in this book was very different from "Island Casualty", showing that Andy's life is absolutely full of crazy twists and turns. The poor guy can't seem to go anywhere without murder following him. But it isn't all madness and peril for him! In this installment he auditions for a symphony and makes plans to start a life closer to his friend, lover and could-be-something-more, Rachel.

These books are incredibly detailed. Every setting is so well described that you feel like you are actually there. The cultures of the people in these places are also well highlighted. In this story you see a spotlight shone onto Machismo culture.    

Cons: I have no notable issues with this book. 

*Parent's Guide: Murder, gun violence, some language, alcohol, and brief sexual content.

Released Today - Blood Moon

New Release today, Dec. 4th, 2016:

Blood Moon

by John David Bethel

355 page Thriller
(Adult themes: violence, torture, kidnapping, murder)


Description:

On a hot, steamy afternoon in Miami, Cuban-American businessman Recidio Suarez is brutally beaten and abducted. Handcuffed, shackled and blindfolded, he has no idea why he has been targeted. What he discovers is heart-stopping. What he endures during almost a month of captivity compares only to the most horrendous stories of prisoners of war. He is tortured, and under the threat of death, and worse – the rape of his wife and torture of his children – Suarez is forced to hand over his multi-million dollar holdings to his captors.


Suarez survives and then spends the next few months staying one step ahead of the murderous pack. During this time, he and his lawyer, Nolan Stevens – a former Special Agent in Charge of the Miami Office of the FBI – are having difficulties convincing the Miami-Dade Police Department that a crime has been committed. Their efforts are complicated by Steven’s difficult history with the head of the MDPD Special Investigations Division, who is not interested in pursuing the case.


Inspired by a true story, this book features a Foreword by the only survivor of the crime and an Afterword by the Private Investigator who was instrumental in solving the case.
