About the author, Peter Soros:
For someone who would describe himself as a “home-body”, Peter Soros’s actions would tell a different story. At age 17, he home schooled himself his senior year of high school so he could graduate early and move to Italy. To much surprise his American high school diploma was not held in high regard, so he had to start at the 3rd of 5 years art specific high school, where he focused on graphic design. While in Sicily he also studied classical guitar privately for advancement at the music conservatory in Palermo. It wasn’t until Peter moved back to San Diego from Italy, that he began teaching himself photography.
He created every opportunity to grow his photography skills in the abundant, picturesque locations Southern California has to offer. Day and weekend photo trips to national parks, state parks, beaches or zoos were his real learning days. But the places Peter really felt home at, was shooting live music performances. His drive to be a music photographer lead him to a photography position for a musical instrument manufacturer. This thrust Peter into working directly with professional musicians, both in the photo studio and live stage, for promotional shots that would be ?published in U.S. and International guitar and bass magazines.
But Peter’s lust for growth continued, and after the untimely death of his father, Peter enrolled at the Musicians Institute in Hollywood, California, and graduated with a certificate in vocal performance. He has since released his first ever music video and has his music featured on various internet radio stations.
He currently lives in San Diego county and spends his days as a graphic designer, freelance photographer/videographer, entrepreneur, parent, songwriter, writer and studies Wing Chun kung fu and Filipino martial arts.
Peter is also the founder of two start-ups, PennyBox music streaming site and Vento bottles.

Long before 9/11, Miles used to lie in bed at night in his apartment on Manhattan’s Upper West Side — just across the park from where Cynthia, Steve and Melissa would be living — and listen to the sirens. Wondering when someone would drop “The Big One” on The City.
Mike C. Erickson grew up in the idyllic college town of Logan, Utah, but because of a twist of fate he graduated from high school in Honolulu. He left Hawaii brimming with aloha and enrolled at Utah State, where he was awarded two degrees and self-proclaimed minor intellectual status, which was of dubious value when the US Army invited him to vacation in South-East Asia. Ten days after leaving Vietnam, he began decades of dispensing pearls of wisdom as a high school history teacher, academic decathlon coach, and on occasion, as a community college instructor in the Sacramento area. Mike and his wife Trudy, have two grown sons and a grandson born soon after this novel is published. When not in Hawaii or another exotic locale, they live in Gold River, California. This is his first novel.
A former Air Force brat turned clinical chemist, toxicologist, and university professor, Ann’s life took another turn in 2001, when she began writing fiction. After completing a perfectly dreadful novel (she didn’t know it was at the time) she talked her way into a graduate writing seminar and followed that up with several years of study as she continued to write. Along the way she made friends with other writers who have supported, critiqued, and eventually praised her novels. Her debut novel, Dreams for Stones, was a finalist for the Indie Next Generation Book Award.
