The Tongue Trade by Michael J. Martineck

About The Tongue Trade by Michael J. Martineck

When words are the ultimate currency, silence can be lethal.

In the not-too-distant future, humanity’s ability to communicate has fractured, creating a labyrinth of professional jargons so dense that only specialists like William Kirst, Private Interpreter, can unravel them.

Kirst is a linchpin in a society where understanding is a luxury, and secrets are the norm. His routine existence is shattered when he becomes entangled in a murder investigation, a crime spoken in a language of bullets and blood.

As an interpreter sworn to confidentiality Kirst is bound by an oath that puts his life in jeopardy and his morals in shackles. The more he uncovers, the deeper he’s edged into a conspiracy where language, as a weapon and a prison, pushes him closer to a dark truth.

The Tongue Trade is a riveting exploration of language, loyalty, and the lethal power of secrets. It questions the boundaries of ethical duty and the price of silence in a fragmented world.

Where words are the ultimate currency, silence can be lethal.

My Haven, My Midnight by Isobelle Cate

My Haven, My Midnight by Isobelle Cate

An enchanting damsel in distress…and the sexy immortal that longs to claim her.

For Amaryllis Hart, it’s just one thing after the other. After escaping an abusive uncle, she finds herself working for Jack Crawley, a sinister human who betrays her and sells her without hesitation to the evil shape-shifting Scatha Cruors—a fine way to repay her for being his most trusted lieutenant (and source of mind-blowing sex) all these years. All of a sudden, she’s tossed into a world she can’t believe exists: the Scatha battling the heroic vampire/werewolf hybrids known as the Cynn Cruors … and thrown into the arms of one such immortal who steals her heart.

Colin Butler and Craig Shaw, both Cynn Cruors, return to Leeds abruptly after a secret Colin has been keeping for centuries resurfaces to haunt him. Colin must come face to face with his past, and his future—Amaryllis, the violet-eyed beauty he longs to do more for than just rescue. She makes his blood curdle with desire…and she heals his soul.

Unbearable tensions mount as Colin and Amaryllis embark on a passionately hot love affair they can’t resist. But when Dac Valerian and Herod D’Argyl—two of the Scatha Cruors’ most dangerous leaders—turn up in Leeds, Colin has to make the hardest decision of his life: walk away from his past, or avenge the brutality bestowed on his family and lose the woman he loves—forever.

From Budapest to Hollywood

About From Budapest to Hollywood

An indelible story of resilience, hope, and the pursuit of a better life

From the first heart thumping chapter of Katherine MK Mitchell’s memoir, detailing the longest day of her life— a covert journey by truck, buggy, and on foot while escaping communist Hungary with her mother— readers will be enthralled with this rollercoaster ride that takes her from Budapest to New York, and Hollywood.
Born Jewish in Nazi occupied Hungary during WWII, she survives the horror of being a war baby to becoming a promising ballerina, and then a nationally ranked gymnast, whose dreams are dashed in communist Hungary. Her mother’s attempts to get them to the promised land of Israel fails. They ultimately make it to the Midwest where she went from being a star gymnast to refugee dishwasher. Eventually finding their way to New York City, she became a model, before marrying an aspiring actor and heading to the promised land of Hollywood.
From being the “dumb, abusable foreigner,” she pursues several careers—talent agent, screenwriter, and a trial paralegal in Beverly Hills, while supporting her husband (who eventually became her ex) and their child. She is always on the threshold of a lucky break that never comes. The #MeToo syndrome of life in and out of Hollywood gradually taught her self-protection. Her Hollywood days are filled with well-known producers, actors, screen writers, and Hollywood elites. She has changed the names in most instances, but it is still a fun game of “Can you guess who that is?”
This heart-wrenching to hilarious story emotionally moves the reader on unexpected levels and celebrates its hell-and-back qualities. Through the good and the bad, and the many disappointments along the way, she remained grounded and hopeful, and never gave up on following her dream to being accepted as a writer. A remarkable story of courage, resilience and finally becoming who she wanted to be.

A Small Gray Dot by P.B. Cannon

A Small Gray Dot by P.B. Cannon

Could the fate of the world hinge on the actions of an ex-middle school English teacher?

Tennessee Murray, out of college for three years, has realized his ambition to teach and his dream of publishing a book, and is preparing to marry the love of his life. Things can only get better, right?

He thinks so. That is, he does until one June morning he steps out of his apartment and into an unexpected and unusual fog, and finds himself in a waking nightmare. Something has happened that is sudden, deadly, and inexplicable. It causes baffling, technological outages that make no sense, but worse of all, it brings death to billions. It touches everyone in one way or another and throws the world into utter chaos.

Life becomes a struggle, but it limps on, and unable to teach anymore, Tennessee finds something else he has a knack for: tracking, and seven years after what has become known simply as The Event, he sets out to find a missing young woman in a dystopian world that’s slowly sliding into the sewer. Like everyone else, he carefully sublimates the thing that changed everything, and keeps his mind strictly on the task at hand, so that’s all he’s trying to do.

But, he’s thrown a curve when he inadvertently stumbles across the cause of the event that brought the world to its knees, and is yanked relentlessly into the understanding that things are about to get a whole lot worse.

Can Tennessee, and a ragtag crew he has assembled, stop the total annihilation that’s bearing down on the world?

Defying social convention, she also has a partnership in the Trinity Ranch, where she openly lives “in sin” with Jackson Knight, the man of her dreams.

After Sam loses her memory in a suspicious stagecoach accident, she’s drawn to Jackson’s beguiling kisses almost as much as she is to his tender compassion. But because she’s a woman who needs to understand why she feels things, she questions whether it’s true love or seductive desire swaying her senses.

He could lose her love…

Handsome and enigmatic Jackson Knight loves Sam with all his heart. But when she loses her memories of him and their shared passion, he fears he’ll lose the only woman he could ever love. Compounding his fear is the discovery an unknown enemy is trying to kill Sam.

Together, the power of their love could fulfill the promise of the future…

Life Behind Bars Vol. 1 by Julian Starks

About Featured Book: Life Behind Bars Vol. 1 by Julian Starks

“Our Mission is the Animals”
Julian Starks 2018

“My dream, thus mission in life is to travel the world and photograph beautiful, vibrant animals in all places and circumstances, free and confined.”
Julian Starks – 2018

I am a Los Angeles based Photographer, Filmmaker and Animal Activist writing on behalf of VISIONS OF THE WORLD Inc., my 501(c)(3) Non-Profit company. Our first project was “LIFE Behind Bars” Vol. 1, my first Fine Art Photography book. The book was titled after the photographic series that I started in order to honor the beauty of animals in captivity, and to support the many individuals and organizations that have dedicated themselves to caring for and protecting these magnificent beasts.

I began my journey of photographing these amazing animals at TIPPI HEDREN’S SHAMBALA PRESERVE. I fell in love with the animals and the work that Tippi is doing there. This has truly been my inspiration! So much so, that Henson, Shambala’s Regal Male Lion, graces the front cover of this book. The book consist of 12 other Zoos, Preserves and Sanctuaries, as well.

I created Visions of the World Inc., to help support wild animal sanctuaries and institutions like those featured in this book. A percentage of all proceeds from the book; photos and all other ancillary products will go to the sanctuaries and institutions featured within these pages.

Next project…Visions of the World Inc. presents…
“LIFE Behind Bars…Except if You’re Free” VOL. 2 which will focus on the conservation efforts of the Gorillas and Big African Cats in their natural habitat – Africa!

We are dedicating this second book in this series of books to DIAN FOSSEY, whose work regarding the conservation of the Mountain Gorilla’s has been an inspiration for our project.

Secondly, we are also covering the big African cats, which are among the most charismatic species in the world. However, despite their iconic status the public is neither fully aware of their endangered status nor understands the difficulties encountered by those who want to preserve these magnificent animals in their local environment.

The first goal of this project is to present the safaris in Rwanda (Gorillas) & Kenya and Tanzania (Big Cats) as models of species protection and conservation. The second goal of this undertaking is to create an emotional connection through pictures between people and the animals. The third goal is the ultimate comparison book of Animals in captivity! vs. Animals in the Wild! Gorillas and Big Cats!

Finally, we intend to document on film all the animals in the safaris, zoos and sanctuaries as well as Julian Starks’s experience in photographing them. We intend to use these images for a TV/Web Docu-series.

Through this project we intend to give a voice to the voiceless and to stay true to our mission statement, which is to raise awareness, change perceptions, educate and support those who need representation.
Thank you and stay safe.

Live Long, Prosper & Peace to all!

Sincerely,

Julian Starks – Founder/CEO/Photographer

The Dark Trilogy by Chris Armstrong

About The Dark Trilogy by Chris Armstrong

A book that follows one man’s life might be an autobiography, but what is a book that traces the lives of two men?
The autobiographical fiction which makes up the longest book of the trilogy holds two histories of one man displaced by several hundred years, histories that interweave and come together in the Welsh mountains in the present day. And a part of one of those lives is traced further in the play for voices which makes up the second book. Book three brings our characters to a resolution of kinds.
Chris Armstrong has blended fact and fiction to create a complex story with many strands… a story of the sea, a story of passionate love, a story about a writer and a poet, a story about his friend and editor, and a story about the past: a past that the writer only understands completely at the very end of his anabasis – his journey away from the sea.
