    KL Smith

    eBook (Water Street Press, Feb. 22, 2017)
    It’s Shark Week at Captain Jack’s Rum Caye Inn in Belize. Jack dangles a popsicle of frozen fish guts that he uses to attract sharks for photo ops for divers. But the frenzied shark attack results in a shocking scene and the divers are horrified and panic. When travel writer Matt Oliver, still mourning his father’s death, arrives at Jack’s the next day, he learns the local police suspect his old friend of being responsible for the serious mishap and have shut down his diving business. As Matt tries to clear Jack’s name, he stumbles into a violent game of international intrigue. With the help of Maxie McCaw, an ex-girlfriend and Environmental Protection Agency agent, and Cat Mander, the beautiful owner of a rainforest resort with her own dark secrets, Matt finds himself in deeper trouble when he uncovers a jaguar hunt staged by Trey Turnbull, a corrupt American conservationist with surreptitious ties to Martin Chin, a Hong Kong expat who is producing phony aphrodisiacs and leading a shark-finning ring, as well as the American ambassador to Belize. Police track Matt down and deport him for dubious reasons but, goaded by Maxie, he sneaks back into Belize as a cruise ship passenger. Soon Matt becomes the hunted prey during a terror-filled journey through uninhabited cayes, humid jungles, and the dark and dangerous streets of Belize City. A shocking and sad fact: More than forty million sharks will be left to die this year after their fins have been hacked off for soup.

  • The Goat Castle Murder

    Michael Llewellyn

    Paperback (Water Street Press, Nov. 1, 2016)
    The blood drying under the Mississippi moon was the bluest in Natchez. <br<br> Before the television age, when 'crime of the century' meant something, the public was unduly fascinated by murder. This was especial true during the Great Depression, when Americans were desperate for escapist far. The more bizarre or glamorous the crime, the greater the fascination, and few intrigued them more than the events of August 4, 1932 in Natchez, Mississippi. The brutal shooting of spinster recluse Jennie Surget Merrill grabbed instant headlines with tales of fabulous wealth, beautiful women, European royalty, Southern aristocracy, a U> President and the Confederate President, army generals and ambassadors, not to mention madness, incest, racism, bitter internecine feuds, vertiginous falls from grace and eccentricity in spades. The case became known as the Goat Castle Murder. Michael Llewellyn has taken the known facts of the case, breathed life into these eccentric Southerners, and created a fascinating novel, The Goat Castle Murder.

  • Many Marriages

    Sherwood Anderson

    Paperback (Wheeler Press, April 12, 2013)
    This early work by Sherwood Anderson was originally published in 1923 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. 'Many Marriages' is a novel about a changing society and people's relationships within it. In 1908, Anderson began writing short stories and novels. He moved to Chicago, where he found work in an advertising agency and became friends with other writers in Chicago, including Floyd Dell, Theodore Dreiser, Ben Hecht and Carl Sandburg. Starting in 1914, the now-politicised Anderson began having his work published in 'The Masses', a socialist journal. Anderson's first novel, 'Windy McPherson's Son', was published in 1916. This was followed by the novel 'Marching Men' (1917) and a collection of prose poems, 'Mid-American Chants' (1918). A year later, 'Winesburg, Ohio' (1919), Anderson's best-remembered and best-known work, was published.

    John Clarke

    Paperback (Wet Street Press, May 21, 2017)
    Two superpowers are in a race to recover and exploit alien technology. To compete with the rumored Russian retrieval of an alien spacecraft found deep in Siberia’s Lake Baikal, the U.S. government orders two Navy saturation divers to risk everything to help salvage a spacecraft that may not even exist. It is up to Jason Parker to make sure the divers return safely from the deepest man-dive ever, but he cannot guarantee mission success. That is up to luck, and the bravado and heroism of the Navy divers. The thriller Middle Waters was the beginning saga for diving scientist Jason Parker and Oceanographer Laura Smith. In Triangle, Russian submarines monitor diving preparations off the U.S. Gulf Coast, then attempt to sabotage the U.S. effort. What started as Russian curiosity, morphs into a deadly threat. To make matters worse, both the U.S. and Russia are targeting Parker and Smith for elimination, if the governments don’t get their way. As a result, Parker and Smith must struggle to survive at all odds, while trying to maintain world peace. With the Presidents of both the U.S. and Russia vying for supremacy, and the American President’s own staff warning of potential catastrophes, the balance of world power, and even world survival, may rest on a liaison between Parker, Smith and two mysterious men with most peculiar powers. One is a blind remote viewer, and the other is a Troll named Truman. The world will never be the same again.
