Author Description:
Author Gary Ponzo began his writing career over a decade ago by writing short stories. He quickly discovered a knack for the short form. In just five years he'd published seven short stories in various publications, two of which were nominated for the very prestigious Pushcart Prize.
His first novel, "A Touch of Deceit," took five years to write and one to pick clean. The story was born from his childhood experiences working in his father's candy store in Brooklyn, NY. His father was Sicilian and became friendly with some local members of a different kind of Sicilian family. Since Gary was just fifteen at the time, these family members would make sure he was protected whenever he would work late at night by himself. He soon discovered a side to the mafia not many people knew. It was these relationships which caused him to write about Sicilian FBI agent, Nick Bracco, who recruits his mafia cousin to chase down the world's most feared terrorist.
"A Touch of Deceit," went on to win the 2009 Southwest Writers Novel Contest, Thriller category. He is currently working on the 5th book in the Nick Bracco series as well as trying to create world peace in his spare time. Gary currently lives in Phoenix, Arizona with his wife Jennifer and two children, Jessica and Kyle.

Two people, passionately in love.
But each hides a deadly secret.
He is a crusading vigilante, on a violent quest for justice.
She is tracking this unknown assassin, sworn to stop him.
Neither realizes the truth about the other.
And neither knows that a terrifying predator is hunting them both....
From its first gripping pages, HUNTER takes you on a nonstop thrill ride: from the top floor of the CIA, to the marbled corridors of Capitol Hill...from the posh hotels of downtown Washington, to the city's mean, violent streets. It introduces a colorful new hero for our time -- and a dazzling heroine every bit his equal.
A spy mystery...a crime thriller...a passionate romance: HUNTER is a genre-bending novel unlike any you've read. Deviously plotted, filled with vivid characters, and propelled at a breakneck pace, it's a tale as memorable for its provocative ideas as for a rousing climax that has readers cheering.

Author Description:
Hello, I'm Robert Bidinotto. Thanks for stopping by. I'm author of the #1 Kindle bestselling thriller, "HUNTER," its award-winning sequel, "BAD DEEDS," and the newly released "WINNER TAKES ALL." I've also been a widely published, award-winning investigative journalist, magazine editor, and nonfiction author.
Ever since I watched "The Lone Ranger" and read Batman comics as a boy in the 1950s, the pursuit of justice became a life-long passion. Justice was the theme of my nonfiction work, including investigative reporting and nonfiction books about crime and the criminal justice system. Now, the quest for justice has become the theme of my fiction-writing, too.
Like me, the hero of my Dylan Hunter thrillers is motivated by his passion for justice. He just can't walk away when there's an injustice against people he cares about. Too often, the institutions of the law are too inept to do anything on behalf of victims; and sometimes, those in power are themselves responsible for perpetrating the injustices. That's why Dylan Hunter felt compelled to become a vigilante. It's why I refer to him as "the new face of justice." And it's why I refer to myself as "The Vigilante Author." So if tales of justice are your thing, then, like thousands of readers, I think you'll enjoy my Dylan Hunter thrillers.
With my talented musician wife, Cynthia, and our stridently individualistic cat, Luna, I make my home on the Chesapeake Bay. I enjoy communicating with my readers. So please feel free to contact me through my blog, "The Vigilante Author, at www.bidinotto.com. While you're there, be sure to sign up on my email list, to get free premiums and be notified of new releases in the series.
Meanwhile, I hope you enjoy "HUNTER," "BAD DEEDS," "WINNER TAKES ALL," and the continuing adventures of Dylan Hunter -- "the new face of justice."

Author Description:
*USA TODAY BESTSELLING AUTHOR*
Claude was born in Montreal, Canada, at a very young age, where he still resides with his spouse, Joanne, under the watchful eye of Krystalle and Midnight, two black females of the feline persuasion. In a former life, he completed his studies at McGill University and worked in various management capacities for a handful of firms over countless years. From there, considering his extensive background in human resources and finance, it was a logical leap in his career path to stay home and write crime thrillers.
His first stab at writing fiction was actually in 1995, the result being his first novel, Vigilante. Two others of the same series followed by 1997 but all three remained dormant until publication in 2009. Since, besides writing ASYLUM, a stand-alone, the Vigilante Series has grown to thirteen thrilling installments including his latest release, Make it Happen.
Two of his novels were included in the pair of blockbuster 9 Killer Thriller anthologies, the second of which made the USA Today Bestsellers list in March 2014. Claude has also penned Something's Cooking, a faux-erotica parody and cookbook under the pseudonyms Réal E. Hotte and Dasha Sugah as well as Nasty in Nice, his contribution to Russell Blake's JET Kindle World. His books have topped the chart in the Vigilante Justice category on Amazon and over 600,000 copies have been distributed to date.
Claude's other interests include reading, playing guitar, painting, cooking, traveling and trying to stay in reasonable shape.

Three very different women have been murdered and NYPD Detective Stephanie Chalice wants to know why. Her case begins on the Roosevelt Island tram. The conductor has been shot, but lying next to him is the real mystery: a woman who might appear to have died of natural causes if not for the handwritten note stuffed in her mouth that simply reads "Look back!” When a second woman is found dead with a rag in her mouth and another cryptic note found nearby, Chalice realizes that a psychopath is stalking Manhattan, on the prowl for a very special type of woman. Part of the murderer’s twisted game is leaving intentional clues for the police, clues designed not only to taunt, but also to do something much worse. Chalice will uncover startling truths about who she really, but will it help her to discover the killer’s real purpose before another woman dies?

I never expected to be a writer. In fact, I was voted the student least likely to visit a library. (Don't believe it? Feel free to check my high school yearbook.) Well, times change I suppose, and I have now authored several novels including the internationally best-selling Stephanie Chalice Thriller Series.
Early in my writing career, I received support from none other than best-selling novelist, Nelson DeMille, who reviewed my work and actually put pencil to paper to assist in the editing of the first book. DeMille has been a true inspiration to me and has also given me some tough love. Way before he ever said, "Lawrence Kelter is an exciting new novelist, who reminds me of an early Robert Ludlum," he told me, "Kid, your work needs editing, but that's a hell of a lot better than not having talent. Keep it up!"
I've lived in the Metro New York area most of my life and rely primarily on locales in Manhattan and Long Island for my stories' settings. I try very hard to make each novel quickly paced and crammed full of twists, turns, and laughs.

Author Description:
I live in Michigan and graduated from Michigan State University. I've been married longer than my wife likes to admit, and have two grown children, Josh and Elizabeth, and four beautiful grandchildren. Molly, Charlie, Josie, and Lily!
I lost my blind black Lab, Max, 26 months ago. He a was great friend who also served as my "writing" dog. He pushed me hard to get to the writing room each morning so he could snore on his rug while I did all the work. I still miss him but we added Braxton and Beaux two years ago, a chocolate lab and boxer/beagle mix who we rescued, and they're getting it, sort of. Not bad for two-year old Big Dogs.
I'm an older writer. I started about twelve years ago and got the first story I wrote, Herb's Home Run, published in Writer's Journal. I've been hooked since then.
I lost my real job six years ago and after 600 resumes with no luck, decided I was going to make it as a writer, and here I am. Caribbean Moon was a labor of love, and writing it taught me more about myself than I cared to know. (My wife thinks I should keep my mind a secret!)But it also taught me to expect more of myself and I do.
I finished the second book in this series, Deceitful Moon, a couple of months later and have completed eight in the series, Emerald Moon, Caribbean Rain, Carolina Rain, Vegas Rain, Caribbean Fire, and Miami Fire, released in March of 2015, plus six short stories, another first in a series, Drop Dead Perfect, and an epic Fantasy called Seer, also released in April of 2015. In December of 2015 I released a short story of Manny and Sophie's first case, called The First One. The ninth book in the series, Cajun Fire will be released in April of 2016 and then we're on to Perfect Sinners, the second Ellen Harper psych-thriller.
I was also fortunate enough to participate in an anthology with six other mystery writers, The Killing Sands. We are now working on second in that vein called Seven and that will be out by May, 2016. Yeah, sort of addicted to this writing thing. :)
I've not made it yet to where I believe God is taking us, but we're on that road, and I want to be a living example that with hard work and God's blessing, you can do anything. I want to encourage you to go for that special thing you've been dying to try...one never knows!

Used to be kids played outdoors until time for dinner, now social media's the new game in town. These days, they play on their smartphones. But with more freedom comes greater danger.

When Laura investigates the murder of a fourteen-year-old girl found in a town's park bandshell, she knows immediately what she's up against: a cunning sexual predator. But why is she plagued by the abduction of a schoolmate eighteen years earlier?
In a runaway case that propels Laura from a lavish Tucson estate to the secretive heart of a northern Florida town, she must confront the ghosts of her own past. Then another child goes missing--and Laura must race the clock to find her.
