Moonlight and Oranges by Elise Stephens @elisestephens

Moonlight and Oranges

A timeless tale of young romance.

Lorona Connelly is ready for a change from her carefully planned, bookish life. When sparks fly at a costume party, she embraces a chance for romance with the handsome Kestrin Feather. However, she quickly realizes that even love and destiny may not be enough to overcome the reality of an overprotective mother-in-law and Kestrin's long, tarnished history of relationships.

When Lorona's curiosity leads her to Kestrin's journal, doubt plagues them both with insecurities and threatens the relationship. Can true love overcome the odds, or was their whirlwind romance just a frivolous crush? Author Elise Stephens shares a journey of young love, fate, and wounded trust in the story of Lorona and Kestrin, a couple who must learn to overcome their fears to share a life together.

Interview with Jake Needham @JakeNeedham

The Digital Ink Spot interviewed Jake Needham, author of five contemporary crime novels set in the cities of Asia. Needham was born in the United States and graduated from Rice University and the Georgetown University Law Center. Needham practiced international law and worked the borderlines of the Pacific Rim until he turned to writing and has since sold over 100,000 books in four languages.

Read the weekly 'Letters from Asia: http://jakeneedham.com/category/blog/

The Digital Ink Spot: What can you tell the readers about THE AMBASSADOR'S WIFE?

Jake Needham: THE AMBASSADOR'S WIFE introduces Inspector Samuel Tay, a detective in the elite Special Investigative Section of Singapore CID. Inspector Tay is something of a reluctant policeman. He's a little overweight, a little lonely, a little cranky, and he smokes way too much. Thinking back, he can't even remember why he became a policeman in the first place. He talks about quitting all the time, but he hasn't. Because the thing is, he's very, very good at what he does.

The first body is in Singapore, on a bed in an empty suite in the Marriott Hotel. The second in Bangkok, in a seedy apartment close to the American embassy. Both women. Both Americans. Both beaten viciously and shot in the head. Both stripped naked and lewdly displayed. The FBI says it's terrorism, but the FBI always says it's terrorism. The whispers on the street are that a serial killer is stalking American women across Asia.

Singapore CID gives the case to Inspector Tay. It's high profile, and he's the best they have. Then why is it, Tay quickly begins to wonder, that nobody seems to want him to find the women's killer? Not the FBI, not the American ambassador, not even his bosses at CID.

When international politics takes over a murder case, the truth is the next victim.

The Digital Ink Spot: What were the challenges (research, literary, psychological, and logistical) in bringing this story to life?

Jake Needham: I've lived in Asia for the last twenty-five years -- in Singapore, Hong Kong, and Bangkok -- so I know the territory pretty well. I'm also published by Marshall Cavendish International, a venerable old UK publishing house that has had the headquarters of its trade publishing division in Singapore ever since the company was bought by a major Singaporean media group, so I'm in Singapore three or four times a year. I'm even a fairly familiar figure in the press and on television and radio there, pontificating about the foreign point of view on all sorts of things. 

Because of that it was easy for me to make THE AMBASSADOR'S WIFE authentic in both its overall tone and the procedural details of police operations in Singapore without having to do a lot of specific research. I know a lot of people in Singapore, and they know a lot of people in Singapore. On the whole, people like talking to novelist since we're not journalists. Everyone understands we make it all up, don't they?

The opposite side of that coin, however, is that not a small number of Singaporeans are remarkably sensitive to what is being said about their country in the media, particularly by foreigners. Although I write fiction, I found that quite a few people were still offended by my failure to portray everything about the Singapore police force in a completely flattering light. I lost a lot of sources that way, particularly in government and in the police force itself. I even made a few enemies, and enemies in a tightly controlled society like Singapore can be a problem. Sometimes I wonder a little these days who exactly is watching and listening when I'm in town.

The Digital Ink Spot: Are there any new authors that have grasped your interest? 

Jake Needham: He's hardly a new author, but R.J. Ellory is new to most Americans since he's a Brit and until recently his books weren't widely available in the US. THE ANNIVERSARY MAN is one of the great pieces of modern crime fiction. It hasn't gotten nearly the attention it deserves. 

The Digital Ink Spot: What books have most influenced your life most?

Jake Needham: Long before I ever thought of writing novels myself, as a reader I discovered the fiction of Ross Thomas. Thomas died about fifteen years ago and has in my view been undeservedly almost forgotten since. I was traveling back and forth from the US to Asia a lot when his books were more popular, and I thought them a revelation. It was possible, I discovered, for Americans to write well about other cultures. Read OUT ON THE RIM or any of Ross Thomas' other wonderful books and discover an American writer who shares my bemusement at these Asian cultures that are so unlike our own and which Americans fail to understand so completely. I thought back then, if I ever try my hand at writing novels, I want them to come out with the same light-touch and beguiling sensibility that Ross Thomas brings to his work. And then I did start writing novels, and I've been trying to live up to that vow ever since.

The Digital Ink Spot: What can readers expect from you in the near future?

Jake Needham: My most recent book was just published a few weeks ago at the end of March. It's called A WORLD OF TROUBLE (A Jack Shepherd crime thriller) , and it's the third entry in my Jack Shepherd series of international legal thrillers. The first was LAUNDRY MAN and the second was KILLING PLATO . Think of Shepherd as Jack Reacher with a laptop and you'll have a sense of the tone of the series. 

As with all of my other books, the printed edition of A WORLD OF TROUBLE is only available outside North America, but the e-book edition is available worldwide. 

Right now I'm working on a second Inspector Tay novel to follow THE AMBASSADOR'S WIFE. It should be out in the early fall. I would tell you the title, but I've got three titles right now. I love all of them and can't make up my mind. Maybe that's a sign from the literary gods that I'm going to have to do two more Inspector Tay novels after this one, just to use up all the good titles.

Deadlocked : Broken Pieces vol 1 by A.R. Wise @arwisebooks

Deadlocked : Broken Pieces vol 1

This is a series of five short stories that pertain to the original Deadlocked novella. It also contains one story from the Vampire's Prey series and one unique story called The Body Farm.

Deadlocked : Broken Pieces Vol 1 contains the following short stories.

Dial Tone: This story picks up from the beginning of the outbreak and tells Laura's story. In this short story, you'll learn about what she and the girls went through that forced them onto the roof of their house, waiting for David to come home.

Just a Secretary: This story is about Gloria and Jerry from David's office building. They try to escape the building, but get caught by a character that plays a big part in Deadlocked 3.

The Getaway: When David leapt from the billboard into the Everland River, he emerged only to be smacked on the head by a boat that was being chased by the police in the pontoon. This story explains who that was, and why he was running.

Batting Average: William and his son, Billy, have been protecting their salvage yard ever since the outbreak of the zombie apocalypse. Moments before they discover David on their beach, William sits back and enjoys a soda with his son who he is afraid he'll lose soon.

Love Letter: A note that Laura wrote to David after the events at the end of Deadlocked. This letter technically should be part of Deadlocked Broken Pieces Volume 2, but I thought it fit better here.

Also included in Broken Pieces are a couple of short stories that are not from the Deadlocked Universe. The first, The Summoner and the Prey, is from the Vampire's Prey series and is a unique story to this book. Also in this volume is The Body Farm. This is a wholly original story about… well, you'll just have to wait and see! Let me just say that it has a couple of my own personal favorite horror scenes that I've ever written.

The Marcella Fragment by Anna LaForge @AnnaLaForge

The Marcella Fragment (Maze)

On an empty planet, a city called Pelion is built by former dwellers of Old Earth. Centuries later, the Council of Pelion -- influenced by the prophetic Marcella Fragment -- asks citizens to begin construction of a maze that will be inhabited by ernani (lost souls) brought from the corners of the known world to walk the Path of Preparation.

Two ernani who walk that Path are Tyre of Lapith and Kara of Pelion, a chieftain's son and an apprentice musician. This pair, as unknown to themselves as they are to each other, face trials that test their physical, emotional and moral courage.

In the tradition of fine visionary novels, The Marcella Fragment takes the reader into a world both familiar and strange, peopled by warriors, artisans, healers and slaves, incorporating science fiction, fantasy, myth, and romance.

SIMON VECTOR by JAK HOLDING @LeagueEnt @leaguejohnny

SIMON VECTOR

Alpha Draconis. Its name alone makes even the most law-abiding citizens of the Empire uneasy. Located in the farthest reaches of known space, it is the most remote and feared prison in the Imperial penal system. To be consigned to this tunneled-out, vacuum-sealed planetoid is both a life sentence and a death sentence, for no prisoner entombed within its frozen walls ever leaves the facility alive.

When Zodiac Battle Systems sends an investigator to Alpha Draconis, Ana Bolo is no less a prisoner than the cannibals, serial rapists, and mass murderers this frozen hell confines. Tasked to learn the fate of a secret project once concealed within the bowels of the prison, her corporate masters will kill her if she fails. But as she hunts for clues left behind by the suicidal genius, Doctor Thaddeus Kong, she realizes that Kong’s increasingly erratic logs point to a more sinister truth. Alpha Draconis lies vulnerable to a horror unlike any mankind has yet faced, a horror drawn to the planetoid by the very experiment Kong tried to hide.

Bird of Passage by Catherine Czerkawska @czerkawska

Bird of Passage
UK Link

Dealing sensitively with the shocking realities of state-sanctioned physical abuse and its aftermath, Bird of Passage is a powerful story of cruelty, loss and enduring love.

1960s Scotland. Young Finn O’Malley is sent from Ireland to work at the potato harvest and soon forms a close friendship with Kirsty Galbreath, the farmer’s red-headed grand-daughter. But Finn is damaged by a childhood so traumatic that he can only recover his memories slowly. What happened at the brutal Industrial School to which he was committed while still a little boy? For the sake of his sanity, he must try to find out why he was sent there, and what became of the mother he lost. As he struggles to answer these questions, his ability to love and be loved in return is called into question.

When Kirsty moves away from home to study in Edinburgh, the threads that have bound these two friends so closely together begin to unravel. Only Kirsty’s ambitions as an artist can give her the fulfilment she seeks. But her work is tied up with her affection, not just for the island, but for Finn, who comes and goes, like the corncrake, a summer visitor. Many years later, India, a successful folk musician, returns to the small island where she was born, to unravel the mysterious and tragic love story which has remarkable significance for herself.

Catherine Czerkawska is an award winning author of novels, short stories and many plays for the stage and for BBC Radio 4. When not writing, she also finds time to collect and deal in antique and vintage textiles.

Memoirs Aren't Fairytales: A Story of Addiction by Marni Mann @MarniMann

Memoirs Aren't Fairytales: A Story of Addiction

"I could feel my chin falling towards my chest, my back hunching forward. My body was acting on its own, and my mind was empty, like all my memories had been erased. There was scenery behind my lids. Aqua colored water and powdery sand that extended for miles. I was never going back to coke. I wanted more heroin. And I wanted it now."

Leaving behind a nightmarish college experience, nineteen-year-old Nicole and her best friend Eric escape their home of Bangor, Maine to start a new life in Boston. Fragile and scared, Nicole desperately seeks a new beginning to help erase her past. But there is something besides freedom waiting for her in the shadows--a drug that will make every day a nightmare.

Heroin.

With one taste, the love that once flowed through Nicole's veins turns into cravings. Tracks mark the passing of time, and heroin's grip gets tighter. It holds her hand through deaths and prostitution, but her addiction keeps her in the darkness. When her family tries to strike a match to help light her way, Nicole must choose between a life she can hardly remember, or a love for heroin she'll never forget.

Murder on the Waterfront by Michael Jahn @Mike_JahnWords

Michael Jahn's New York City Mysteries: Murder on the Waterfront

A web of waterfront intrigue ...

Parties of vastly different orders rage aboard two ships docked side-by-side on Manhattan's legendary West Side waterfront. On the ultramodern, palatial, and pastel cruise liner Trinidad Princess, a conservative candidate for president presides over a posh fundraiser. On the ancient, barnacle-encrusted, and fashionably decadent Sevastopol Trader, the head of an ultrachic modeling agency holds an all-night soiree of supermodels and who-knows what else to celebrate the launch of her perfume line. When dawn breaks the following day and the body of a top conservative political strategist is found in the litter-strewn hold of the old freighter, Captain Bill Donovan leads the investigation. Helped by his wife, the multiracial firecracker Marcy, and his friend and associate, Brooklyn's massively muscled Brian Moskowitz, Donovan delves into a web of waterfront intrigue that includes national politicians, global environmental activists, top fashion models, menacing harbor water rats, lonely homeless old men, waterfront regulars, and a host of New York eccentrics.

Spy Hunt in Dixie by Max Connelly @MaxConnelly

Spy Hunt in Dixie

DISCLAIMER: 

Although this is a historical thriller, written in the mystery genre, it's not the casual read. The novella is written as a "puzzle", where the reader will have to figure out the multinarrative pieces together in order to understand where the story is heading. 

A retiring MI6 officer hits upon a clandestine ring hibernating in the upper echelons of the British Secret Service. Recognizing that he is under watch, and fearing for his own life, he resorts to unorthodox means. Zach Taylor, a Canadian Anglo-Saxon chauvinist, and a fellow combatant in the late WW I is his choice. The man is arguably the best detective journalist ever. Never failing a friend, and with little fear in his heart, the Canadian accepts the mission diligently.

Taylor's journey takes him to incredibly fantastic situations and exotic lands. Few steps into his investigations, he has to hunt back an African soldier, from the French army invading Mexico in 1864, who runs into Civil War-beaten Louisiana, where he witnesses a terrible secret. Suddenly, something appears to be related to a Christian mission in Belgian Congo at the turn of the century, and the murder of the British Governor-General of Sudan a few years later. Then again, definitely every thing has to do with Napoleon III and his schemes in Protestant North America, correcting his great uncle's mistake, and retaking Dixie back.

But how can those absurd events be relevant in a spy hunt eighty years later?

Every character has a tale to tell, but the truth eludes Taylor, and his targets-turned-pursuers, to the very end, when suddenly the aberrant threads converge into the most incredible knot.

Hawk by John Walsh @doirepress

'Hawk' (Border Lines)

Hawk is a short story from the collection Border Lines. Border Lines introduces us to a cast of characters who are vivid, yet understated. It is this polarity that makes them
more compelling. Most notable is Ian, the link throughout the collection, often in discordance with himself and the world around him. From his early years, Ian struggles with issues of self-doubt and disappointment, though ultimately his quest for self-discovery moves him forward on a path to understanding and personal growth.

Gone at Zero Hundred 00:00 by CR HIATT ‏ @McSwainandBeck

Gone at Zero Hundred 00:00 (McSwain & Beck)

Sydney Marie McSwain and her pal, Cody Beck, team up to take on a secret club called The Devil's Door where members are branded with the tattoo of a devil and call themselves The Privileged Ones.

Sydney Marie McSwain - a tomboy who yearned for a father.

Cody Beck - a wannabe filmmaker, wisenheimer and flirt.

Jaden White - the star who led the high school hockey team to two championships, and was now on the A-list for NHL scouts.

Sydney Marie McSwain loves her mom, Anna - a private investigator in the coastal city where they live - but they had a major issue between them. Anna refused to give Sydney the identity of her father. On the day of her high school graduation, they were battling it out, once again. An hour later, Sydney, Cody and Jaden were at the local café, and watched as Anna was gunned down.

Faced with immediate responsibility, Sydney and Cody agreed to take over the agency, only they changed the name to McSwain & Beck. At the same time, Sydney convinced Sutter Beach Detective, Ace Carter, to help her track down her father.

Then out of the blue, a model walked in and hired them to follow her step-brother. While Cody was busy editing a trailer to solicit new clients, Sydney settled into her lemon-yellow pickup to do surveillance, and wound up staking out a secret club called The Devil’s Door whose suspicious members wore the tattoo of a devil.

That same night, Sydney received a call from one of her mom’s former clients, but the client was gunned down at the location where they agreed to meet. The mysterious discovery of a DVD revealed the possibility that teenagers were being abducted, only nobody reported them missing.

On the hunt for the victims, McSwain & Beck were chased by men in ski masks, nearly gunned down by a members of a drug cartel called the outlaws, Sydney’s precious pickup was broken into; then the step-brother they were hired to follow, was found dead and Sydney was the number one suspect.

If things weren’t bad enough already, they had to figure out how to crash a red-carpet Mardi Gras bash being held on a private cruise ship, before it sailed off into the sunset, where they just might meet the devil, himself.

Now, the clock was ticking…

And time was running out…

How was she ever going to find her father, now?

Her plan to house-sit for relatives in a rural community is shattered when Susan witnesses a very public murder within an hour of her arrival. Things turn sinister after an encounter with an elderly lady; a hint of a long ago murder is not a secret with which Susan wants to be entrusted.

The Seeker and The Sage by Christina @Christina1UG

The Seeker and The Sage

This book is like no other spiritual book ever written.
The factual information gathered together for this story and told through the fictional character of the Sage comes to us from a number of sources: The guided journal writing of Christina, The Warrior of Light through his direct communication with The Creator, and from many contributors from the Higher Realms who want to enlighten mankind at this pivotal point in the history of the human race. The Seeker is a composite fictional character.
This channeled work makes clear the answers to such questions as: Why are we here? What is our purpose? What happens to us when we die? This book will explain why mankind is at the point of extinction and why we are so much more complex than we have ever known.
This book will shatter illusions and replace them with logic and spiritual fact more interesting than any religious fantasy.
This book holds the key to Enlightenment!

Demoniac Dance by Jaq D Hawkins @JaqDHawkins

Demoniac Dance (The Goblin Series)

A young girl flees her home and an unwanted marriage. Desperation takes her to the riverside, the site where as a toddler she was patted kindly by the goblin who had befriended the human ruler, Count Anton. But another memory of that day unsettles her as she pushes the small boat into the current. A memory of bubbles in the river, and of blood. There's something in the water still.

Driven by a premonition that she belongs with the people across the river, she soon meets the children of Magicians...and of goblins. Yet there are greater challenges to face.

In the midst of conflict between species and between the ever combative northern and southern humans, a new enemy arises from over the sea. Foreign humans come to invade, expecting an easy conquest of the rich lands that Count Anton has so wisely kept productive of food supplies. The goblins see the danger of this invasion to their own uneasy peace with the familiar local humans, but they disagree among themselves as to whether they will best serve their kind by helping the surface dwellers, or by leaving all humans to kill each other once and for all.
