various magazines, anthologies, and drawers. These include over
30 publications, the likes of ChiZine, Bare Bone, The Harrow,
Flesh and Blood, Until Someone Loses an Eye, and Darkness Rising.

not because of the ghosts. You can visit my online home.

I've
been blessed with a variety of interesting jobs: a covert position
with the CIA's Directorate of Operations; attorney in an international
law firm; in-house counsel at the Osaka headquarters of Matsushita
Electric; executive in a Silicon Valley technology startup.
These
days I write full time: a thriller series about half-Japanese,
half-American freelance assassin John Rain, whose specialty
is making it look like natural causes. My agency training, my
experiences in Japan, and a background in martial arts all inform
my writing. If you like edge-of-your seat action, exotic locations,
realistic spycraft, steamy sex, and a killer with a conscience
who is "the stuff great characters are made of" (Entertainment
Weekly), and if you like books by Lee Child, Joe Finder, Ian
Fleming, Ken Follett, Vince Flynn, Graham Greene, Richard Marcinko,
David Morrell, Daniel Silva, Trevanian, Andrew Vachss, and Marcus
Wynne, the Rain series is probably for you.
The
books have won the Deadly Pleasures Barry Award and Mystery
Ink Gumshoe Award for Best Thriller of the Year; have been included
in numerous “Best Of” lists, including those of
Amazon, Deadly Pleasures, News-Press, Publisher’s Weekly,
the San Francisco Chronicle, and the San Jose Mercury News;
have been translated into nearly twenty languages; and have
been optioned for film by Barrie Osborne, Oscar-winning producer
of the Lord of the Rings trilogy.
You
can learn more about the books, and find tips on writing, photos
of locations in the novels, and much more, on my website.

The
Curse of Kali by Audrey Blankenhagen
In 1854, beautiful Doctor Helen Forsythe marries into a family
beset by a strange history. Her charismatic husband, Sir Gavin
French, is the British Resident at the court of a Muslim prince.
The
exotic beauty of India, her British rulers living in splendid
isolation; the opulence and intrigue of a Muslim Royal Court;
the machinations of a sinister cult of Kali; the horrors of
the Indian Mutiny: are the themes woven into the rich backcloth
of “THE CURSE OF KALI”. In this turbulent setting
are a man and a woman whose destinies are inextricably linked,
their love yearning to flower despite every obstacle.

The
Children of the Anarii 1 by Alii Bek
Visionary Fantasy. This is Book 1 of The Anarii Chronicles.
Limited copies of the trade paperback are still available from
Amazon.com. First edition. Morgana Brejjard is an ordinary dreamer,
and the eldest daughter of a northern landholder. It is a hard-working,
quiet society with no place for daydreams, but Morgana hears
voices she cannot understand that seem to call her away from
all that she has ever known. With an all too-real vision calling
for her help from Rejat, a Mirii warrior healer, her Aunt Elas'
arrival and surprising announcement of her heritage to the same
forbidden order, followed by her father's heartless betrayal,
Morgana begins a journey with Rejat and her aunt to join the
Mirii and their spirit companions, the Azerii, to seek her destiny
and to understand the voices that trouble her soul.

THE
MAPPING OF MARKESH by Paul Tonks
This book is a good, strong, multilayered example of a hugely
popular genre. It is fantasy and adventure, with a glimpse into
a possible parallel reality of someone else’s imagining.
THE MAPPING OF MARKESH is written with a hand that is both sure
and light; Paul Tonks’s creation, the Hidden Continent,
is logical within its inherent fantasy.

Why
Are We Here? by Dennis
Marcellino
A recent CNN survey said that the #1 interest of 43% of Americans
is "What is the Meaning of Life"?
You get the clearest, simplest, most objective, scientifically-backed
explanation of the meaning of life available on this planet
in Dennis Marcellino's book, Why Are We Here? "This is
a very important book that is greatly needed at this time. I
agree that the Bible should be the ultimate resource for life
and living and that the world could greatly benefit from being
logically and scientifically shown that this is true."
Mark Victor Hansen, Co-author, New York Times #1 Best-Selling
"Chicken Soup For The Soul" series.
