Sinopse

This issue, we have quite an interesting lineup. We have mysteries from returning favorites Veronica Leigh and Robert Lopresti (thanks to Acquiring Editors Michael Bracken and Barb Goffman), as well as a boxing crime story from classic author Jack Ritchie. Our mystery novel is by Izola Forester, a romantic suspense tale from the Golden Age. And of course we have a new solve-it-yourself puzzler from Hal Charles.
 
On the science fiction front, we have an original tale from Damir Salkovic and a classic pulp novelet by Arthur Leo Zagat. For fantasy, we have a hauntingly beautiful story from Nina Kirki Hoffman, plus two dark fantasies from British authors John S. Glasby and his son, Edmund Glasby.
 
Those who like to count things may have noticed an extra story this issue. Nina Hoffman’s contribution is very short, so we slipped in one more. Enjoy!

    An ancient secret. 
    A forgotten science. 
     A battle for the future of humanity. 
    Seven thousand years ago, as he lay dying on the battlefield of Lanka, Ravana whispered a secret to Lakshmana about a mysterious technology that held the key to Ayodhya's prosperity and the world's destiny. 
    For centuries, desperately sought by explorers, marauders and emperors alike, it has been kept hidden, safeguarded by warriors bound by an ancient oath.  
    Now, as tensions escalate along India's volatile borders and a crucial defence project teeters on the brink of failure, Indian industrialist Aditya Pillai and South Korean technocrat Somi Kim are thrust into a mission that will upend everything they know.  
    The two realize they must act fast, but never once do they anticipate that they will stumble upon startling revelations about a miraculous force that once connected Ayodhya to Kailasa, the Pandyan Empire, Rome, Damascus, Thailand and Korea. As the forces of past and present collide, a question looms large: who will harness the power of the ultimate enigma, and at what cost?  
    The Ayodhya Alliance spans continents and centuries, seamlessly weaving together science, legend and history in a breathless race against time. In this sweeping, unputdownable story of intrigue, betrayal, survival and love, master storyteller Ashwin Sanghi casts his web wider than ever before, spinning once again a riveting, edge-of-the-seat thriller.

    The plant kingdom was seeing a deadly conspiracy unfold after the Creation of Man. Slowly but surely the humans have been turned into puppets by a secret army to make them bring on climate change. They are being used for an invasion of Earth with global warming meant to be the highly classified mission statement of this peculiarly-powerful army. The clock is ticking for a mass extinction like never before. Time has come to fire the last shot; time has come to save the Tree of Life! But growing in the heart of California’s iconic Yosemite National Park, where petty issues, rivalries and cheap thrills rule over everything else, Buddy and an odd bunch of young plants are hunting for the Sacred Weapon to defeat the invaders. Little do they know that they won’t be able to pull it off unless they faced up to none other but themselves! 
    This audiobook was produced by Eccentric Circle Records and features original background music composed by Chintan Kalra.
