Right now, I'm dealing with having my last release, WHEN DANGER CALLS, remaindered. That means there are no more copies being printed. BUT I have a bunch of copies in my garage and will be happy to sell them at 50% off cover price. You can read the first chapter at http://www.terryodell.com and if you're interested, drop me an email. And since the sequel will come out next year, this is your chance to see where it began!

When a detective from Thomas Edison's Motion Picture Patents Trust is found stabbed to death on the set, Adam is arrested, and Emily must finish the movies, find the killer, and keep from becoming the next victim before the deadline falls.

William Freedman said...

"Land That I Love" is political and social satire dressed up as space opera sci-fi.

A galactic hyperpower invades America in the same hamfisted way America once invaded other countries. High jinks ensue.

"I dove in to this story expecting something fluffy and funny. What I actually got completely surprised me. Yes, this story is humorous; it is also fiercely satirical, intelligent, and extremely well-written. This clever novel is filled with political and social commentary, most of it humorous but some of it serious, and while the fun it pokes is frequently sharply pointed, it is never mean-spirited. ... a wonderful, colorful, and very thought-provoking novel. It has just a whisper of what I would consider a Douglas Adams feel to it (if I can say that without detracting from the obvious intelligence and talent of the author) but is without a doubt utterly unique. ... I highly recommend this novel to readers who are looking for something smart and witty and just a little bit different from the norm. Give this one a read. I’m convinced that you won’t regret it or forget it any time soon." (Book Wenches)

Our new true-crime book, "Alone: Orphaned on the Ocean," just came out May 1. Our author, Tere Duperrault, the sole-survivor of a murderous rampage by the captain of their rented sailboat who, in 1961, murdered her father, mother, sister and brother, has been featured on "The Today Show," "The View," "Fox and Friends" and locally in Green Bay. It's an awesome, horrifying story yet uplifting in how Tere has survived and succeeded. It's the first time she's told her full story in the nearly 50 years since the event.

It's available on Amazon.com: http://www.amazon.com/ALONE-Orphaned-Ocean-Richard-Logan/dp/0982000979/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top

Wow! What a lot of great book descriptions going up here! First congratulations to everyone who has a book to promote; it is hard work but there is always a feeling of accommplishment with a completed novel or work of nonfiction. I have enjoyed reading all the descripts. I suggest for you all to take a look at www.Slide.com where you can easily create a fast book trailer type thingy. I just did one myself for my array of ebooks, concentrating on the cover art for those that are not selling as much as the others.

My last book came out in hardcover in July and am trying now to complete my next major title - Curse of the Titanic. So other than marketing for my ebooks at present, I have little to talk about, but I am blogging as I write Curse on the ups and downs of writng a novel in 3 months and completing final copy in a year.
That's found via google at Dirty Deeds-Advice.

My just-published e-book, Follow The Falcon, is available at www.clublighthousepublishing.com. The blurb: The greatest art heist in history has gone unsolved for twelve years when a dying man whispers his final words to an almost-starving young artist. With a huge reward at stake, Brooke Lancaster races along the twisting roads above Nice, onto the dunes of Cape Cod, into a chateau-like museum and to Thoreau’s historic grave. Using little more than her wits and courage, she takes on thieves, Mafia goons and unscrupulous art aficionados who are as desperate as she is to find $350 million in paintings.

Coming July 1st! It's Murder, My Son introduces my new series character Mac Faraday.
What started out as the worst day of Mac Faraday’s life would end up being a new beginning. After a messy divorce hearing, the last person that Mac wanted to see was another lawyer. Yet, this lawyer wore the expression of a child bursting to tell his secret. This covert would reveal Mac as heir to undreamed of fortunes, and lead him to the birthplace of America’s Queen of Mystery and an investigation that will unfold like one of her famous mystery novels.
Little does Mac know as he drives up to Spencer Manor that he is driving into a closed gate community that is hiding more suspicious deaths than his DC workload as a homicide detective. With the help of his late mother’s journal, this retired cop puts all his detective skills to work to pick up where the local investigators have left off to follow the clues to his neighbor's killer.
