See Glassby Ido Graf

A former Legionnaire had been working as a journalist in Paris. He met a mysterious American by chance when the later sailed into a quiet fishing village nestled in a remote Andalusian bay. The yachtsman, also a former Legionnaire, explained that he had been working in private security and he told a story which at first seemed to be fictitious. However, the journalist began to question what he had been told.

The violent deaths of an elderly Swiss gentleman and two of his gamekeepers in a lonely house in the English Shires served as the catalyst. The various strands of the frightening story began to come together. What followed was a life-and-death hunt for a secret which had its birth amid the destruction of Berlin in 1945.

There were those within the security services of the Middle East, Europe and the United States who struggled to come to terms with the enormity of the situation. There were others within the corridors of power who wished to prevent that secret from seeing the light of day.

They will stop at nothing to reach that aim.

Solstice Shadows: A VanOps Thrillerby Avanti Centrae

DA VINCI CODE meets TOMB RAIDER in this multi-award-winning and #1 bestselling thriller that combines intrigue, history, science, and mystery into pulse-pounding action.
 
A computer-app designer. An encrypted relic. Can she and the VanOps team decipher the dangerous code before extremists trigger a high-tech apocalypse?
 
Broad-shouldered marine turned covert agent named Bear Thorenson wants his girlfriend, Maddy Marshall, to join VanOps, but the software expert and aikido black belt isn’t sure she’s ready for a hazardous dark-operations role that might risk the life of AJ, the nine-year-old boy she wants to adopt. Things change when an armed Russian thief escapes over a wrought-iron fire escape carrying her ancient star chart. She chooses to join Bear in the pursuit, because if her royal family legends are true, the mysterious chart leads to a superconductive meteor capable of powering the ultimate quantum computer. Upon learning the lightning-fast machine would be used by fringe members of the Russian government to spark a global war, and those same extremists kidnapped AJ once before, Maddy’s heart drops and Bear’s arctic-blue eyes turn to ice.
 
Setting off on a mad dash to uncover the chart’s celestial secrets at a Mexican archeoastronomy site, the VanOps team unearths a clue dating back to biblical times. As they race across the globe through the dangerous bazaars of Morocco, fallen Turkish temples, and Egypt’s perilous Valley of the Kings, they must fight to stay even a half-step ahead of sinister assassins. Worse, the place Maddy sent AJ for refuge becomes the enemy’s testing ground, where hungry gangs roam darkened streets.
 
With millions of lives on the line, can Maddy and Bear rescue the boy and crack the chart’s secret code?

Pretend To Be Mineby C. Morgan

I need someone to help me stick it to my ex.

A fake fiancée will do the trick, and this woman is gorgeous.

My ex-wife cheated on me and now is marrying the bastard.

And I have to attend the wedding for my daughter’s sake.

Well, I’m going armed with hotness. Nothing like pretending your life is together.

We might have pretended a little too well.

The crazy part? She’s not from the escort service that a buddy set me up with.

She owns the service.

And she’s pulling out all the stops. I’m not sure who’s more convinced about her affections, my ex or me.

Needless to say, she’s willing to pretend to be mine.

The only question is, can I keep her when it’s all over?

I plan to work like hell to make that happen.
