The Crimson Falcon

eBook or Print or Both: e-book
Genre: Thriller, black humor

Places to purchase: Smashwords
Cover Artist: Lynn Arrayet


Blurb:

 The Crimson Falcon.  He's completely insane.  But he uses that power for good instead of evil.

There are many superheroes; those who can fly, bash through walls and who are invulnerable to conventional attack.
Then there is The Crimson Falcon.  He can do none of these things, yet he stands unique.  He's CRAZY - but he uses this power for good instead of evil.
The Crimson Falcon is an ordinary mortal, a street crazy. He is neither loved nor needed by society. His is a dead end life without purpose or impact: An empty existence.   His delusion that he is a super hero gives him worth.  He is SOMEBODY.  He is The Crimson Falcon, champion for justice (the ultimate make work program).
Mocked by society: which dismisses him for the loon he is, his friend in a comic book gives him the peer support he craves and needs.
The Crimson Falcon is not normally a brave man. He fears violence and confrontation and there are moments of self-doubt when he realizes he is no more than a nut in a filthy costume.  Fortunately for his self-esteem, these moments are rare. Such is the life of THE CRIMSON FALCON
Then he meets KIKI, a beautiful and charming woman, who give him the love an acceptance he has never known.  Sadly, like so many other promises in the world, she is too good to be true, as her real purpose, to lure him to a death trap, is revealed.
This death trap is set up by a wealthy, powerful, and rightwing nut named Hargreaves.
Hargreaves, well connected and politically ambitious, is a truly dangerous madman, a threat to all humanity.  The Crimson Falcon is alone against him and for once, the world may actually depend on him.

Blurb:

After being laid off from her psychic gig, Zelda Dragos decides finding Montezuma’s lost treasure has to be easier than prying a check out of the state’s unemployment office. The fly in the ointment is the tenacious Derek Sloan, an Indiana Jones type, who wants the gold for himself.

The first clue in the treasure hunt is an Aztec amulet on display at the Phoenix Art Museum. All Zelda needs to do is “borrow” it for a bit. Unfortunately, Derek has the identical plan. With the help of a holographic diversion featuring the Rock as Montezuma, Zelda zaps him with a stun gun and walks off with the Amulet.

Zelda uses all of her tricks to discourage Derek’s relentless pursuit; a smoke bomb, mace, a hive of angry bees and getting him arrested. Out of options, Zelda finds herself stuck with a partner who thinks she needs a keeper and he’s just the man for the job.

To find the treasure all they have to deal with is an angry Apache Thunder God, Asmoday, the demon king of the Ninth Hell, eight thousand vengeful Aztec spirits and a mummified Aztec warrior. Adding to the mess is Zelda’s evil Aunt Sophie and Uncle Dante who wants the treasure for themselves. Dante’s lethal goons are hot on their trail. Derek and Zelda soon discover love blooms in the weirdest places.

Stealing from a warlord and giving him the one finger salute as I made my getaway was not the brightest thing I’d ever done. Okay, it was an incredibly stupid stunt.
Did I mention that this particular Coletti warlord is the most feared in the entire galaxy? That Zarek’s the ultimate predator and even the other warlords are scared spitless of him? That he never ever stops until he either captures or kills his prey?

Indigo de Vargas is determined to exhibit her products at the Great Exhibition in Crystal Palace. The evil Duke Lorca and his shape-shifting servants, however, have thwarted her preparation at every turn.

Steam powers more than the submarine on this voyage. Sparks flying between Indigo and her captain may ignite a passion neither can avoid. Ably assisted by quirky servants, brass goggles and inappropriate accoutrements, they must fight those out to foil her mission.

He’s unaccustomed to staying in one place for long, but he just can’t seem to keep his hands off the multi-faceted woman. Will Nick break loyal Lissy’s heart or will she be the one woman he simply can’t walk away from?
