Tabitha is trapped and she hasn’t got a clue how to get out.
She is living in the tunnels that run underneath the city of London and the year is 1835. Even if she does manage to escape, where will she go? Who will look after her and protect her from the Intelligentsia who are on the look out for her kind?
And when she does find the chance to escape she comes across a whole cast of characters who are not always exactly as they seem. Who is Fillipe and why exactly do people find him so charming? Who are the Misfit Party? And how did the enigmatic Magdalena become quite as powerful as she is?
In this tale of magical forces, political aspirations, sex and love Tabitha has to find her way in a world that is not kind to women with no history to speak of. She uses her wit and intelligence to forge a life in this world even if it does require getting herself into a few tight spots and having a little too much brandy to drink along the way.

About the author, Josh Langston:

Josh LangstonJosh Langston writes books which amuse, anger, enlighten and entertain. He regularly mines history for background material that’s little known but reliably fascinating. His plots are complex, interconnected and layered with humor and suspense; his characters are rarely predictable, and even his bad guys tend to be both engaging and diabolical.

A graduate of Georgia State University with a degree in journalism, Josh’s writing tastes quickly shifted away from reportage. His fiction has been published in a variety of magazines and anthologies, and both his Christmas and Western short story collections have reached the Amazon top 20 for genre fiction.

Though he focused on historical fantasy in his first four books, Josh branched out into contemporary thrillers and currently has a half-dozen such titles on the market plus another half-dozen short story collections. His latest novel, OH, BITS! is a paranormal mystery romance set in Atlanta during World War II.

Josh and Canadian writer/editor Barbara Galler-Smith, have co-authored four novels. These include the “Druids” trilogy (DRUIDS, CAPTIVES, and WARRIORS) and UNDER SAINT OWAIN”S ROCK, a romantic comedy set in contemporary North Wales. The Druid series, consisting of three intense historical fantasies, are all set in the first century BC.

When he’s not writing, Josh is most likely editing, teaching, blogging, or helping his wonderful wife watch their amazing grandkids.

*** CAPTIVES reached #3 on the Calgary Herald’s Best-seller list for April 17, 2011, three weeks *before* the book’s official release! ***

Life Strings by Bruce Borgos

Free Mystery Available on Amazon“An impressive novel full of action, politics, and emotion” – Kirkus Reviews

More than anything else in the world, nine-year-old Jacks wants to help his dying mother. A simple blood test could allow him to do that. But what Annie Brody hasn’t told her son yet is that they don’t share any DNA because he came from an anonymous woman’s egg.

So why does the blood test show Jacks and Annie are related?

The answer is half a world away where a young woman is battling famine, disease, and an endless war to care for 20,000 refugees, the only family she has ever really had. As if that wasn’t enough, she’s made enemies with the one man who controls the supplies her people desperately need.

She alone holds the cure for Annie.

Life Strings is a race against time on every level, a story of a mother willing to put her son in harm’s way in order to save them both, and of another who discovers the inescapable bonds of blood.

One Step Ahead: (Gamekeeper Turned Poacher Book 1) by Denver Murphy

Gamekeeper Turned Poacher Book 1Detective Superintendent Brandt has found the perfect murderer.

Himself.

Brandt’s going to make the hairs on the back of your neck stand on end when you hear footsteps behind you. He’s going to make you look twice at that stranger walking towards you.

He’s going to make you afraid for your own safety and those around you.

Or he’s going to kill you.

And he will use his unparalleled knowledge of how to escape detection to kill; again and again, because the people of Britain need awakening from their slumber of indifference, having been desensitised by the violence that is gripping the country.

But DCI Stella Johnson believes she can catch him. There is no such thing as a perfect murderer; everyone makes mistakes. The crime scenes may be lacking evidence, but each one tells its own story.

Aided by her young protege PC McNeil, and with their personal chemistry growing as fast as their working relationship, can she separate the murders’ facts from Brandt’s fiction to uncover the person behind these killings?

Book 1 of the Gamekeeper Turned Poacher series, One Step Ahead, takes the classic cat and mouse tale and flips it on its head. The intrigue behind Brandt’s dramatic descent into criminality, and Johnson’s determination to change the game, has captivated readers with its fascinating characters and compelling plot.

Readers of James Patterson, Angela Marsons and Helen Fields will love this book! Fans of Dexter, Broadchurch and Unforgotten will not be able to put it down.

“…James Patterson but with a refreshing UK edge and a dose of realism.”

“This really is a gripping crime thriller as it grabs you from page 1.”

“Creepy and gripping writing, particularly the chapters written through the eyes of the killer.”
