  • Hatteras Blue

    David Poyer

    Hardcover (St Martins Pr, June 1, 1989)
    "Tiller Galloway is a terrific hero . . . A fast-paced, convincing thriller set in an unusual locale." --Baltimore Sun "Plot twists and turns that chart a tricky course through the deep waters of human need and greed." --Ocala Star-Banner “Local atmosphere and a good knowledge of treacherous currents keep things on course.” --The London Times On a moonless night in 1945, a destroyer sinks a U-Boat fifty miles off Hatteras Island, the Graveyard of the Atlantic. Over a half-century later, the mummified corpses of three crewmen, wrapped in a decaying rubber raft, come to light during excavation for a new shopping development. Their reappearance unleashes neo-Nazis, drug smugglers, and a shadowy "historian" with an ominous plan. When Hatteras native, salvage diver, and ex-con Lyle "Tiller" Galloway III starts digging into the discovery, he's forced by an island family to take on a dangerous silent partner. Together, he and Shadrach Aydlett will discover what actually happened in the Carolina sand hills so long ago, and what everyone's really after . . . tons of long-lost Nazi gold. And finally, he’ll battle a ruthless killer many fathoms beneath the stormy sea off Cape Hatteras. HATTERAS BLUE's rare original hardcover sells for over a hundred dollars. This new edition has been revised by the author to make it even more exciting and authentic.

  • Pulling Up Stakes

    Peter David

    (Second Age, Incorporated, April 4, 2013)
    Sick of vampire books? Movies? TV shows? Yeah. So are we. Sick of the entire unlife of vampires? Yeah. So is Vince Hammond. Unfortunately, Vince is in it up to his (wait for it) neck. Because Vince is a young vampire hunter who lives with his vampire hunter mother in an entire community of vampire hunters, who in turn are part of a cult of vampire hunters going back all the way to the French Revolution, which many believe to be an uprising of the poor against the rich but was actually a massive purging of vampires from the French nobility (hence the guillotine; way more efficient than shoving stakes into their hearts.) And here’s Vince’s major problem: he’s a vampire. But he dare not “come out of the coffin,” as it were, and reveal his true nature, because his mother will literally kill him. And if she doesn’t manage it, she has lots of friends and neighbors to help make sure that happens. So instead Vince has to keep his head down and hunt his own kind while making sure not to actually kill them since, for the most part, vampires are law-abiding citizens who drink from eagerly volunteering “Wanna V’s” hoping for their own shot at the night life. But when some out-of-town hunters show up with a very personal connection to Vince, his two worlds are going to collide in a way that may wind up forcing Vince to run for the hills…assuming he can get far enough away before Mom hunts him down.

    David Poyer

    Paperback (Northampton House, March 14, 2016)
    "A flight of the historical imagination that will leave readers dazzled." - Thomas Fleming "Solid research buttresses Poyer's latest, a consistently engrossing WWII novel featuring FDR and skinny naval officer John Fitzgerald Kennedy." - Publisher’s Weekly "An assassination thriller that keeps the pulses pounding, a finely crafted blending of fact and fiction with the patrician president from Hyde Park as the target..." - The Tampa Tribune "A consistently readable, fast-paced, intelligent tour of the elite politics of the U.S. as World War II drew to a close." - Booklist The apocalyptic spring of 1945. A young Navy lieutenant, convalescing from action in the Pacific, is transferred to the President’s personal staff. But John Fitzgerald Kennedy’s boss, Admiral Leahy, thinks enemy code traffic points to an assassin in FDR’s circle. Who is trying to kill Franklin D. Roosevelt? JFK and screen star Lauren Wolfe, “the most glamorous woman in the world,” pursue the mystery as the clock ticks down to April 12, 1945, in Warm Springs, Georgia ... where two ruthless men—one Russian, one German—and a shadowy American traitor will try to alter the course of history. Set against a burning Berlin, the glitter of Palm Beach and Hollywood, the killing fields of Poland, wartime Washington, and small-town Georgia, The Only Thing to Fear brings legendary figures to fierce and passionate life. Using hundreds of hours of on-site research, interviews, and declassified documents, a master storyteller reimagines our country’s heroes in a way that is sure to provoke fascination and controversy.
