Hornet’s Nest

Hornet's Nest

Lieutenant Virginia Hornet is on a suicide mission to save a love she thought she had left in her past in this tense, breakneck thriller by Army veteran and award-winning author Victoria Montes.

Ginny Hornet thought the hardest part of her past was behind her—until a murder case lands on her desk and pulls her straight back into it. Captain Tom Rivers is accused of the brutal murder his pregnant fiancée.

To everyone else, the evidence looks airtight—all Tom needs to do is sign the plea deal. But to Ginny, the name on the file is impossible to ignore. Five years ago, Tom was the man she loved—and the man she walked away from. He couldn’t possibly have done so ruthless…could he?

As Hornet digs deeper, breaking every rule, she finds herself running from not only her past, but the law she swore to abide by. She puts her entire life on the line in search of the truth, following her shattered heart wherever it may lead—even if that means away from Tom Rivers forever.

What begins as a hunt for answers spirals into something much darker and vaster than anything Lieutenant Hornet could have imagined.

Either she loses everything…or Tom does. $0.99 on Kindle.

91 Seconds

91 Seconds

From the world of the #1 Amazon Urban Fiction hit The Monster Besides the Silence comes the newest installment in the Wolf Gospel Universe: a hard, fast, pressure-loaded street novel about hunger, loyalty, fear, and the deadly math of bad decisions made too quickly.

91 Seconds follows Augustus “Ock B” Jenkins, a man pushing forty and running out of respectable ways to survive.

The jobs dried up. The money never stretches far enough. Family still needs him. Pride still tells him he can hold the line. But hunger has a sound, and after a while it gets louder than shame.

When a reckless first move goes wrong and bullets replace fantasy, Ock realizes the streets are not built for hope, fantasy, or hesitation. They are built for consequence.

What follows is not a rise-to-power fairy tale. It is a brutal education in survival.

As Ock tightens his circle and sharpens his methods, he and his crew begin moving with discipline, timing, and a doctrine built on one cold truth: in this life, every second matters. Ninety-one seconds can be the difference between getting away clean, ending up in cuffs, or never making it home at all.

But the deeper they go, the harder it becomes to control the chaos around them. Rumors turn into mythology. Jewelry turns into exposure. Public reaction turns street moves into citywide noise. And every robbery, every split, every argument, and every bad decision leaves something behind: heat, witnesses, pride, resentment, blood.

Set within the wider Wolf Gospel Universe, 91 Seconds expands the world that readers first entered in The Monster Besides the Silence, while standing as its own ruthless, fully realized story of pressure, loyalty, and collapse.

This is not a soft side story or a detached companion novel. It is a darker extension of the same living universe, where reputation travels fast, fear spreads faster, and survival always comes with a cost.

What makes 91 Seconds hit harder is that it never mistakes the streets for spectacle. This novel understands the difference between fear and discipline, between image and reality, between the rules a crew says it lives by and what happens when those rules are tested under real pressure.

Friendships fray. Egos swell. Loyalty gets expensive. Safe geography starts disappearing. And once the city turns your name into a story, it becomes almost impossible to separate myth from the bodies and consequences underneath it.

Ock is not chasing glory. He is chasing control in a world that punishes sloppiness, weakness, and bad timing with permanent results.

The book moves with urgency, but its real strength is the way it understands the emotional and psychological cost of the life: the humiliation of being broke, the seduction of getting away with it once, the slow corrosion of paranoia, and the way pressure can turn discipline into fracture.

Every move narrows the room. Every rumor tightens the walls. Every second brings the end closer.

For readers of raw, intelligent urban fiction with real stakes, real consequences, and a voice that does not flinch, 91 Seconds delivers a tense, unforgiving ride through hunger, pride, greed, survival, and the split-second decisions that decide everything.

I Choose Violence

I Choose Violence
Every year, thousands of children disappear into networks that exist only because powerful people protect them — politicians, judges, investigators quietly told to look elsewhere. Sixty-seven pages of one such ledger fall into the hands of three people the system has already failed: a soldier whose niece was on the list, a quiet European who has waited fifteen years, and a third man who reads it end to end and says, “I choose violence.” What follows is precise, methodical, and uncomfortable to read — not because the violence is graphic, but because the math is honest. The book asks not “should they?” but “why didn’t anyone else?” $0.99 on Kindle.

A tradesman is set alight in his vehicle on an isolated road. His daughter is missing. And time is running out.

“I was on the edge of my seat and couldn’t read fast enough.”
“Totally riveting.”
“Superb murder mystery and police procedural.”

DI Fiona Williams is a driven detective juggling work with a family crisis and growing suspicions about her new boss. Her plan to take a break is shattered when she comes across a burning van while driving home late after visiting her father in hospital.

It’s too late to help the driver, engulfed in flames, still clutching the steering wheel. In a nearby car, the driver is dead, and his hysterical passenger insists she saw nothing before the van exploded.

Fiona regrets delaying interviewing her when it’s confirmed the van driver had been murdered prior to his van being set alight—and no one can find his teenage daughter. Doubly so when the witness is found strangled.

There is nothing to explain why the well-liked, quiet tradesman was murdered. It’s unclear whether the other car was directly involved or simply unlucky. Whether his daughter has been taken or has gone into hiding is anyone’s guess.

Delving into their recent past in search of answers, Fiona is drawn into a web of powerful men determined to keep their deadly games secret. Her quest to uncover the truth and find the girl puts her at risk of sharing the same fate.

“Spirited characters, both good and bad, populate this engaging, often surprising thriller.”—Kirkus Reviews

“9.5/10.0: plot engages from the first page . . . tension drives the reader forward . . . dialogue brings the reader easily into the story.” –Quarterfinalist, The BookLife Prize

A global conspiracy to disrupt American oil refineries surrounds energy executive Lynn Dayton in escalating threats to her employees, facilities, and eventually herself. In THE SECOND LAW by LA Starks, murder and mayhem follow Lynn to California, New Orleans, Europe, and South America as she tries to protect her company from Chinese hackers, American protestors, Russian assassins, and Filipino suicide bombers. Readers who enjoy real science and technology in their fiction will find accurate backdrops to this globetrotting mystery-thriller that gives a unique insider’s perspective on the petroleum industry in the US–and the ongoing battle to protect it from sabotage. -Amy Rogers, ScienceThrillers.com

TriCoast Energy executive Lynn Dayton is visiting the company’s San Francisco refinery when it comes under attack. Saddened by the fiery deaths of several workers, she traces the explosion to software malfunctions and contacts cybersecurity chief Kanak Singh to track it back to the source. The second law refers to the second law of thermodynamics: it means that in an isolated system everything tends towards chaos.

Lynn is still reeling when a TriCoast lease bidding manager is killed in New Orleans. The seeming motive is the theft of his computer containing billion-dollar secret offshore bid plans. Then her long-time mentor and good friend is gunned down in front of her in a Louisiana swamp. What terrible plan lies behind all these crimes? Lynn races against time to uncover a complex plot that stretches from murder in Vienna to a natural gas terminal attack in the Baltic to a major Caribbean oil installation off U.S. shores. Lynn is baffled as she learns of a high-stakes takeover bid by a mysterious group called the Second Law. Who are these people? Worse, who is the mole inside TriCoast that is feeding them so much deadly information?

Unless she can find out, thousands more are scheduled to die. $0.99 on Kindle.
