Rx Mayhem<\/em>\u00a0picks up only hours after the finish of\u00a0Rx Murder<\/em>. Dr. Norrie Marconi is in a good place: She\u2019s solved an old friend\u2019s murder and her love life is blooming. She still has issues to deal with, such as her father\u2019s ghost and that malpractice suit, but she feels like things are settling down and she\u2019s getting her life in order.<\/strong><\/p>\n Wrong.<\/strong><\/p>\n The senior doctor in her medical group drops a bombshell that threatens to disrupt her life, some of the patients start acting strange, and one winds up near death from multiple gunshot wounds. Then there\u2019s her father\u2019s ghost who insists he won\u2019t be free until she finds out what happened to his boyhood friend Corrado, whom he\u2019s sure was murdered. When Norrie\u2019s inquiry turns up a dark side to Corrado, she hires an eccentric psychic to free her father from the family home. And that\u2019s when things take a sharp left turn.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n “With Daley and Pard, Wilson has created two of his most memorable and delightful characters.”\u00a0 \u00a0<\/strong>(Publisher’s Weekly)<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n “…a fun ride.” (Locus)<\/strong><\/p>\n Daley has a problem. Her 26-year life so far has been unconventional, to say the least, but now she\u2019s got this voice in her head. It claims to be a separate entity that\u2019s going to be sharing her body from now on. At first she thinks she\u2019s gone schizophrenic, then considers the possibility that maybe she really has been invaded \u2013 but by what? Medical tests turn up nothing, yet the voice persists \u2026 and won\u2019t stop talking!<\/i><\/strong><\/p>\n When she finally she accepts the reality that she has a symbiont, she discovers that together they can cure people of the incurable.<\/strong><\/p>\n Maybe hosting a symbiont isn\u2019t so bad.<\/strong><\/p>\n She retreats to a remote town in the southwest desert to hone her healing skills. But there she runs afoul of the Pendry clan, leaders of an obscure cult that worships the Visitors who inhabited the area millions of years ago. They plan to bring them back but believe Daley is the prophesied \u201cDuad\u201d who will undo all the cult\u2019s efforts. She must be eliminated.<\/strong><\/p>\n You know things are bad when the voice in your head\u00a0<\/b>is the only one you can trust.<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n “Daley and Pard, a pair of characters that rival any other Wilson has brought to life.” (Cemetery Dance)<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/strong><\/h3>\n <\/p>\n NOW SHIPPING! – Order Signed Limited Edition HERE<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n “I love collections like this, or at least I do when the writer behind the stories is someone as good as F.

In fact, it\u2019s like nothing anyone has ever seen. Yep, Jack is back and, as usual, weird trouble is on his heels.<\/strong><\/p>\n *Starred* Review from Publisher’s Weekly<\/em>! The Void Protocol<\/strong><\/em> – Immediately after WWII, an underground lab was built to house the ultra-secret Lange-T\u00fcr project. The goal of the German technology was to open a passage to anywhere on Earth, near or far. In 1957, after a decade of failures, they managed to open a portal for a fraction of a second.\u00a0 And in that eyeblink something came through\u2026 something not of Earth\u2026 something from Out There.\u00a0 Its passage from Wherever permanently closed the portal.<\/strong><\/p>\n It\u2019s been well over half a century now and no one has a clue as to what it is. Maybe it\u2019s alive, maybe not. Whatever, some of the country\u2019s best minds have had no success communicating with it and still no way to send it back.\u00a0 They\u2019re afraid to set it free \u2013 who knows what havoc it might wreak? \u2013 so they close down Project Lange-T\u00fcr and leave a skeleton crew to keep watch.<\/strong><\/p>\n And there it has stayed to this day, deep underground, slowly changing the world.<\/strong><\/p>\n The Void Protocol<\/em> ties up the ICE Trilogy featuring Rick Hayden and Laura Fanning as they confront a source of the uncanny events of Panacea<\/em> and The God Gene<\/em>, and become unwilling participants in the Secret History of the World.<\/strong><\/p>\n READ an excerpt<\/strong> here<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n LISTEN to an excerpt<\/strong> here<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n I’m not touring this year, so get your SIGNED COPIES<\/strong> at:<\/p>\n The Poisoned Pen<\/strong><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n VJ Books<\/strong><\/a><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n FOR COLLECTORS<\/strong>: a\u00a0SIGNED LIMITED EDITION<\/strong><\/a> from Gauntlet Press<\/strong><\/p>\n Regular copies available:<\/strong> <\/p>\n AVAILABLE NOW<\/strong><\/p>\n Wardenclyffe<\/strong><\/em> – A new novella from the Secret History of the World<\/p>\n Accepted history tells us that Nikola Tesla last powered up his 190-foot tower in Wardenclyffe on the night of July 15, 1903.\u00a0 After that, he ran out of funding when J. P. Morgan reneged on their financing agreement.\u00a0 Failing to raise money elsewhere, he abandoned the tower in 1906 and returned to Manhattan where he suffered a nervous breakdown.<\/p>\n So say the history books.<\/p>\n But according to the Secret History, testing of the tower continued on foggy days when the discharges would not be noticed.\u00a0 The final test took place on April 18, 1906, and proved beyond a doubt that worldwide wireless power was possible. Why then, at the moment of his greatest vindication, did Nikola Tesla abandon his project?\u00a0 What could possibly have transpired at Wardenclyffe that day to so rattle him that he would deny the world his transformative technology?\u00a0 We were never meant to know.<\/p>\n Until now\u2026<\/p>\n Available:<\/strong>Available as ebook and paperback:\u00a0 Amazon <\/a>– B&N<\/a> – Kobo<\/a> – Google<\/a><\/strong><\/h5>\n

\nTHE LAST CHRISTMAS<\/b><\/h2>\n
\nAnd in the middle of all this, the mysterious Madame de Medici hires him to safeguard a valuable object. Simple, right?
\nNot even close.<\/strong><\/p>\n
\n“Last seen in 2014\u2019s Fear City<\/em>, Repairman Jack makes a triumphant return in Wilson\u2019s 20th outing for the Manhattan freelance fixer, which falls chronologically between\u00a0Ground Zero<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0Fatal Error<\/em>. In late December, a year after Jack\u2019s father\u2019s death and his brother\u2019s disappearance, a despondent Jack is pointed by old friend Edward Burkes toward doctors Hess and Monaco, who need him to hunt down and retrieve an escaped hybrid creature, H3, that\u2019s half-ape, half-wolf. No surprise, the docs aren\u2019t on the level, and H3 turns out to be far from the expected. Meanwhile, the mysterious Madame de Medici hires him to protect the Bagaq, an ancient object with supposed healing powers. As Jack seeks H3, hired investigator Tier Hill pursues Jack and the Bagaq while wrestling with strange signals he fears only he can hear. Jack is at the mercy of events involving the secret history of the world, touched on in earlier adventures. Wilson\u2019s storytelling is as crisp, sharp, and entertaining as always. Fans of this fantasy thriller series will hope Jack is back for good.”<\/strong><\/p>\n
