Russell Fine’s New Book

New Terra

Earth was dying. Increased solar energy levels were causing rapid warming of the planet. Sea levels were rising and coastal cities were being evacuated. A new home for humanity had already been found. Thanks to two brilliant engineers there was hope for humanity. Now it was a race against time to relocate as many people as possible to New Terra before Earth became uninhabitable.


Cyn Taylor’s New Book

Angel’s Keep

A childhood tragedy launched Megan Trotter on a drug and alcohol induced downward spiral. Still, she never expects her twenty-fifth birthday to end with a literal bang. Now she must figure out if the man who saved her life is also the one who tried to end it, and who he is working for.

When a loved one from her past resurfaces, will Megan survive long enough to beat the odds and get her old life back? With a sloppily-written note her only clue, Megan finds herself in a race against time, and the killer that’s closing in.

 


Author Ernie Lancaster

At Neighborly Books in Maryville

Ernest Lancaster retired as a Captain from the Memphis Police Department in 2006, after serving thirty-three years as a cop. At one time or another he patrolled every corner of Memphis, where he answered desperate calls in worlds varying from seedy bars, hotels, and squalid housing projects to opulent mansions and playgrounds for the rich. His hard-boiled tales are grounded in real-life triumphs and tragedies. He juggles the truth in a noirish melody, designed to lead the reader down a winding path of authentic, dark adventure.

Ernie was at a book signing yesterday. Like all other AGT authors, we seek opportunities to share our work with whoever will listen. If you’re interested in Ernie’s books, click the picture to go to his author page.
