Patrons of Terror

Sinopsis

In "Patrons of Terror," the fifth installment of Blaine Lee Pardoe's explosive Blue Dawn series, the civil war ravaging America intensifies as the battle lines between Newmerica and the American resistance grow more defined—and more brutal.

Following the overthrow of the legitimate government, the Ruling Council and their National Security Force have transformed America into the totalitarian state of Newmerica. With Social Quarantine camps operating as modern-day gulags, dissenters face imprisonment or worse. While the Truth Reconciliation Committee controls the media narrative, a determined resistance fights back.

When General Trip Reager launches Operation Diamondback to liberate the Southwest, the fragile balance of power shifts dramatically. In New Hampshire, the resistance known as "The Defiance" prepares for a final stand against overwhelming Newmerican forces. Meanwhile, Raul Lopez and his team mount a daring rescue of prisoners from a death camp in New Mexico, exposing the horrifying truth of the regime's environmental "recycling" program.

As operatives infiltrate the highest levels of both governments, no one is safe—including Chief of Staff Jack Desmond, whose assassination attempt threatens to destabilize the entire resistance. With former enemies becoming allies and trusted friends becoming traitors, the fight for America's soul has never been more desperate.

Raw, unflinching, and unapologetically political, "Patrons of Terror" delivers a high-stakes thriller that resonates with alarming parallels to contemporary political divisions. If you enjoyed "Agenda 21," "American War," and "The Mandibles," you'll love "Patrons of Terror."

Hidden Scars

Mark de Castrique

When private eyes Sam Blackman and Nakayla Robertson are asked by an eighty-year-old client to investigate the death of her brother, they warn her there is little chance of success. Paul Weaver died nearly seventy years earlier. The only documentation she has is the sole surviving copy of a coroner's report stating his death was caused by an accidental fall while hiking. 
 
There's a red flag: Weaver knew every inch of the mountain trails. The returning World War II veteran had enrolled at Black Mountain College, a liberal local school with an international reputation for innovation. The college of the 1940s is currently being portrayed in a film being shot on the site of its former location. The plot is based on a book by a local author. The research behind both may provide a lead in the Weaver case. One is drawn from movie crew member Harlan Beale, an octogenarian mountaineer who knew Weaver. Beale is discovered dead in the Black Mountain College Museum. His murder turns the cold case white hot. When a second killing follows, the question becomes how to separate dark doings in the present from dark days and hidden scars of the post-war past. 
 
Nakayla and Sam love their investigations and each other. An interracial couple in the South, they've surrounded themselves with a terrific support team.
