    Claire Isenthal and the Rising Order
    Apr 29 2025
    Claire Isenthal graduated Magna Cum Laude from Purdue University, and is an account executive at a Fortune 500 tech company. She has worked in digital marketing for over ten years. The Rising Order is her first novel, and she is in the midst of writing its sequel, The New Order. She lives in the suburbs of Indianapolis with her husband, their two children, and their mutt.

    The Rising Order

    Flynn faces an impossible choice―save her family and friends or save the lives of thousands of innocent people.
    Flynn Zarytsky, recruiter for the Chicago mega-tech company Magnetic, comes face-to-face with true terror amid a horrific mass shooting by homegrown terrorist organization REDS. Wolf, a REDS soldier, has her in his sights, then decides to spare her life. But in doing so, he may have ensnared her in a fate worse than death.
    REDS’ master plan is to make society pay for its greed and to establish a new order. Wolf sees manipulating Flynn in her role at Magnetic as the perfect way to infiltrate the tech company and use its reach to unleash catastrophic devastation on the city of Chicago and topple civilization. He never expected Flynn could chip away at his resolve and question REDS’ mission. And she never dreamed she’d be a pawn in a dangerous game that forces her to leave the citizens of Chicago vulnerable to slaughter so that her loved ones can live.
    The Rising Order is a gripping read for fans of Homeland and the Divergent series looking for an adult take on the lead-up to a dystopian society.

    Prey

    When Special Agent Henry Lightstone infiltrates an illegal big-game hunting operation that involves powerful politicians and CEOs, he finds himself up against multiple enemies, including a shadowy hit squad targeting green activists. Kirkus Reviews warns, "Only the fish are neutral in Goddard's bloody, entertaining eco-thriller... not for the faint-hearted."

    Wildfire

    Special Agent Henry Lightstone and his team must tackle a deadly cabal of international industrialists and financiers, who have joined forces with a terrorist group bent on "purifying" society by fire and other means of massive destruction.

    Double Blind

    In this third Special Agent Henry Lightstone novel, Henry must investigate a militia group, confront a ruthless Congressman with killers-for-hire, and -- with his Fish and Wildlife team -- deal with a warehouse filled with deadly snakes and spiders in this fast-paced thriller that offers suspense and humor in equal measure. Sequel to PREY and WILDFIRE.


    Ken Goddard

    Ken Goddard grew up in California's San Diego County, went to school at Grossmont High School, the University of California at the San Diego (first freshman class at UCSD) and Riverside campuses for a BS degree in Biochemistry, then went on to what was then LA State University for a MS degree in Criminalistics. Ken joined the Riverside County (CA) Sheriff's Office right after graduating from UCR as a deputy Sheriff/criminalist/CSI, transferred to the San Bernardino (CA) Sheriff's Office to do the same work in a bigger desert, then moved on to the Huntington Beach (CA) Police Department to create a Scientific Investigation Bureau.

    After 12 years of working drunk drivers, illicit drug, burglary, rape, robbery and homicide crime scene investigations, Ken was hired by the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service to create the National Fish & Wildlife Forensics Laboratory in Ashland, Oregon. Ken lives in on a ranch outside of Ashland with his wife Gena and a varying assortment of wild and domestic critters, all of whom --- along with his current and former CSI, forensics and law enforcement work --- continue to inspire his stories.

    More information about Ken, his work and his books can be found at the following web sites: www.kengoddardbooks.com and www.lab.fws.gov.

  • Targets West with Scott McCrea

    Targets West with Scott McCrea
    Mar 18 2025
    Scott McCrea

    I write adventure novels, thrillers and westerns. I am a Western Writers of America Spur Finalist for my novel, Tales of Tom Mix: The Wild West Christmas.

    My books are founded on the notion that the world is full of adventure — you can find it everywhere and anywhere. I want you to enjoy reading them as much as I enjoy writing them.

    I always wanted to be a writer. When I was in first grade I was already writing stories of vampires and monsters; by fifth grade I had graduated to spy heroes and assorted adventurers. Then came the westerns. I ended up becoming a professional writer of public relations materials, mostly for the medical industry. Let me tell you, nothing is more soul-crushing than writing about urge urinary incontinence when you want to be writing about dangerous men and even more dangerous adversaries.

    I’ve written a few nonfiction books over the years, but my daydreams just got bigger and bigger. I wanted an imaginative landscape similar to all the craziness going-on inside my head, so I moved to fiction. I wrote many (many!) books until I finally had my first success with both the Tales of Tom Mix and the Jeff Galleon Adventures

    Now Targets West launches my new series of mainstream thrillers. Grab a copy and meet Lucas Wheeler, Wyoming rancher who gets involved in an international plot. Advance reviews have been raves and I hope you will like it, too!

    Targets West: A Lucas Wheeler Thriller
    Lucas Wheeler is having a bad day when he leaves his beloved Wyoming for the concrete canyons of New York. But he has no idea how rapidly things will turn for the worse. En route to London, where his ranch hands will be performing at the largest international rodeo in the world, Lucas is contacted by the State Department with an unusual request: to report back all observations and significant data on Sheikh Kashif Rashid Al Marltaum. Lucas will be traveling to Dubai to sell several hundred purebred Arabians to the Sheikh, who he learns is deeply involved in terror cells located throughout the U.S.

    Before Lucas can even begin his assignment, he is kidnapped by student radicals, chased while handcuffed through Central Park by on-the-take New York cops and nearly shot in London’s poshest restaurant. It is only when Lucas is lured to Sheikh Kashif’s outlandish Summer Palace hidden in the Dubai desert that he learns of a daring and brazen terrorist plot that will have devastating consequences for the entire Western world.

    With a shocking conclusion set in London’s crowded O2 arena, Lucas must overcome incredible odds before a multinational cabal of terrorists can hit…targets west.

    Hopping through three continents, filled with memorable and very human characters, and energized by pulse-pounding suspense, Targets West is a thriller for people hungry for stories of American heroism and international intrigue.

    A winter sunrise over the great plains of Russia is no cause for celebration.

    But if they think a thousand miles of frozen wasteland and the combined power of the Russian police state is enough to protect them, they don't know the Gray Man. He's coming, and no one's safe.

  • The Ninja Daughter and Kaua'i Storm with Tori Eldridge

    The Ninja Daughter and Kaua'i Storm with Tori Eldridge
    Feb 5 2025
    Tori Eldridge is the bestselling author of the Lily Wong mystery thriller series—The Ninja Daughter, The Ninja’s Blade, The Ninja Betrayed, and The Ninja’s Oath—as well as a two-time Anthony Award nominee, Lefty and Macavity Awards finalist, and winner of the 2021 Crimson Scribe Award for Best Book of the Year. She penned the standalone Dance Among The Flames and, on May 20, 2025, will introduce her new Ranger Makalani Pahukula Mysteries with Kaua‘i Storm.
    Before writing, Tori performed as an actress, singer, dancer on Broadway, television, and film in such shows as the original first national company of Cats, The Love Boat, and Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within. Born and raised in Honolulu—of Hawaiian, Chinese, Norwegian descent—Tori graduated from Punahou School with classmate Barack Obama. After living in NYC and Los Angeles, for over 35 years, she now lives and writes from Portland, Oregon. Her deep interest in world culture has prompted her to visit nine countries, including Brazil, China, and Japan. Tori holds a 5th degree black belt in To-Shin Do ninja martial arts and has taught classes and seminars across the U.S.
    Kaua'i Storm
    Returning to Kaua‘i, park ranger Makalani finds her family divided and their way of life at risk in this rich and emotional adventure by the bestselling author of the Lily Wong series.
    After ten years as a national park ranger in Oregon, Makalani Pahukula is back on Kaua‘i for her grandmother’s birthday. Having been gone for so long, Makalani finds the disconnect with her people and her struggles have never been more profound. Neither has her need to reacquaint herself with everything she left behind. When she reaches the homestead, she finds a bickering family and the disconcerting news that her cousins—a failed college football player and a rebellious teenage girl—have gone missing.
    Makalani hopes they just ran off, too careless to realize the worry they’ve caused. But when hunters find a dead body in the Keālia Forest Reserve, Makalani fears something ominous is at play, and the search for her cousins grows more desperate. Although her help may not be welcomed by family and locals, Makalani is determined to solve a mystery that poses a greater risk than anyone imagines.
    The investigation will open her heart, reawaken her love for the land she calls home, and strengthen her bond with her family. Because no matter how long she’s been away, for Makalani, Hawai‘i is in her blood.
