For the Love of Russian Gold
February 18, 2026 By
A sweeping exposé of corruption at the highest echelons of the Russian government in the 1990s during the fall of communism, featuring an extraordinary cast of characters including Australia’s PM Malcolm Turnbull, Russia’s first president, Boris Yeltsin, and the last-ever president of the USSR, Mikhail Gorbachev.
Based on diary, business-meeting, and company records provided by executive Ludmila Melnikoff, For the Love of Russian Gold chronicles one Australian company’s audacious attempt to mine Sukhoi Log for gold, the secret Russian jewel valued at $30 billion, at the dawn of Russia’s attempts at modernization.
The Berlin Wall has come down, and East meets West. Yeltsin becomes president of a bankrupt state. In the wild west of the new, independent Russia, tax havens flourish, the mafia gains a foothold, massive bribes drive business deals, and synthetic drugs flood the markets.
Desperate for cash, Russia opens its doors to foreign companies, and Australian-born Ludmila is lured to the home of her ancestors to mine the Sukhoi Log, allegedly the world’s largest gold reserve.
To do this, she seeks the aid of charismatic mining magnate Ian MacNee and Australia’s future prime minister, Malcolm Turnbull. The two men share a passion for gold and for Ludmila-but one man is not what he seems.
Millions of dollars raised by merchant bankers in London, New York, and Australia flow into Siberia as the mining world eagerly watches.
The stakes are high, but the question remains: Is the never-before-unveiled Sukhoi Log really the literal gold mine they think it is, or is it Russia’s greatest grift?
As much as it is a shocking once-in-a-generation account of Russia’s power structures in the ’90s, and a foreshadowing of its current administration, For the Love of Russian Gold is also a personal, heart-wrenching personal story of Ludmila’s abuse and the coercive control she endured behind the closed doors of a multimillion-dollar mining enterprise. $0.99 on Kindle.

A Social War
December 8, 2025 By
91 BC — A forgotten well in an old olive grove somewhere along the Via Aurelia
Still seething after a volatile parley with rebellious Italic tribes, General Sulla whirls at the sound of footsteps—only to find Helena, a naïve teenager in search of water. Pressing a dagger to her throat, he twists the moment into prophecy: he the might of Rome and she the vulnerable clans who occupy the fertile land he covets. Underestimating her dormant brilliance, he turns her into his audience while rehearsing the senatorial speech he will deliver to ignite the Social War—a conflict he knows will consume thousands of lives in service of his greed.
Longing to escape her brutal existence in the grove, Helena accepts Sulla’s offer to travel, convinced that whatever “Rome” is, it cannot be worse than what she leaves behind. She is wrong. Abandoned in a secret villa and cast among slaves, she finally grasps the general’s true intentions.
Trapped between certain abuse if she stays and likely death if she flees, Helena must learn to navigate the city’s vicious undercurrents before Sulla returns from crushing Rome’s defiant eastern provinces. Caecilia, the villa’s formidable senior slave, tutors her in the ways of polite Roman society, while Helena uses her keen instincts to become the eyes and ears of Demophon, Sulla’s crippled spymaster. When Demophon is crucified and Caecilia savagely scourged for protecting the young woman they have grown to love, Helena’s resolve hardens into vengeance.
Claiming borrowed prestige, Helena becomes engaged to the son of Gaius Marius, Sulla’s greatest enemy, gaining access to sprawling estates in distant Hispania. There, she plunges into the lethal world of illicit trade—black-market barons, criminal collegia, and pirate fleets—while orchestrating the impossible movement of cargo across the fractured republic.
Driven by a singular obsession to destroy the man who made her a pawn, Helena uses her stolen wealth—and Sulla’s own remembered words—to spark a web of corruption that forces him to march his army on Rome, ignites the civil war that fractures the Republic, and ushers in the violent birth of the Roman Empire.
‘A Social War is more than a tale of rebellion—it is the story of a heart that refuses to break even as nations do. Perfect for readers who savor Robert Harris’s political precision, Madeline Miller’s lyrical myth-making, and Conn Iggulden’s sweeping historical power, this is an unforgettable journey through courage, ambition, and the devastating cost of empire.’ $0.99 on Kindle.
Money and Liberty: How the Framers’ Obsession with Protecting Your Money Shaped the Constitution
September 15, 2025 By
Everything You Know About the Constitution Is WrongUncover the shocking truth about the Constitution’s original intent—and how nearly everything Americans believe about it today is wrong. In Money and Liberty: How the Framers’ Obsession with Protecting Your Money Shaped the Constitution, seasoned journalist and speechwriter Rick Lynch tears down the myths of modern constitutional thinking to expose a stunning truth ignored in political history books: The U.S. Constitution was built first and foremost to protect your money—not just your speech, your religion, or your guns. Your property—your paycheck—was the sacred right the Framers most feared the government would steal. Drawing from the Federalist Papers, Convention records, and the Framers’ own words, Lynch presents a bold, evidence-rich reinterpretation of our nation’s founding. Diving into the very foundation of American democracy, Money and Liberty delivers a thunderclap of clarity and reveals the secrets of the real meaning of the Constitution. Learn why the Framers rejected the Bill of Rights, how they saw money as a sacred right, and why they believed economic freedom—not freedom of speech or religion—was the cornerstone of liberty.
Inside, you’ll discover :
Why the Bill of Rights was rejected as a “preposterous” and “dangerous” idea.
How the Framers equated money and freedom with divine law.
Why money and property are mentioned in the Federalist Papers 17 times more often than speech, press, and religion combined.
How a welfare program led to the Constitutional Convention.
Why protecting property rights was not only the heart of the Constitution—but the key to true liberty.
This is more than constitutional interpretation—it’s a call to reclaim your most overlooked freedom: the right to your own money. If you’ve ever wondered how we got so far off course, Money and Liberty delivers a history lesson on the United States government and American freedom you won’t be able to forget. $0.99 on Kindle.

God’s Pale Horse
January 14, 2025 By
“God’s Pale Horse” by James Ryan is a profound and unsettling exploration of historical injustice, intertwining divine mandates with human atrocities. Through a meticulous examination of the conquest and subsequent devastation of the Americas, Ryan unveils how the invocation of divine authority has been historically manipulated to justify the unspeakable: the systematic extermination of indigenous peoples.
This book takes the reader on a harrowing journey through history, starting from the apocalyptic riders in the Book of Revelation, echoing through the arrival of Columbus, and resonating in the genocidal policies against Native Americans. Ryan compellingly argues that these events were not merely acts of survival but orchestrated campaigns of extermination sanctioned by misinterpretations of Christian doctrines and fueled by economic greed.
From the shores touched by Columbus to the battlefields of the American Indian Wars, “God’s Pale Horse” explores the theological and political justifications used to rationalize the horrors committed against Native populations. It examines the portrayal of indigenous people as obstacles to the divine promise, destined to be conquered or annihilated.
Ryan challenges the reader to reconsider the narratives of American history and the sanctified violence carried out in the name of God and country. This book is not only a historical account but a moral inquiry into the depths of human cruelty and the enduring fight for justice. It is a crucial read for anyone seeking to understand the darker chapters of American history and the implications of using divine justification for terrestrial horrors.
“God’s Pale Horse” is a call to acknowledge and rectify the past, urging a reexamination of the myths that have shaped American identity. It’s an essential addition to the discourse on history, religion, and the ethics of power. $0.99 on Kindle.
