NEW! The Gutenberg Rubric

JUST MONTHS BEFORE the famous Bible that bears his name was finished, Johannes Gutenberg was sued by his business partner for misappropriating funds for a private enterprise. When Gutenberg refused to share the secret project, the court awarded the entire Bible-printing operation to Johan Fust, leaving Gutenberg with nothing but his secret. Was it an alchemical formula? A heretical treatise? A new technology? Or something far more dangerous? Why would Gutenberg risk everything?

Eccentric professor Keith Drucker and rare books librarian Madeline Zayne are reluctant heroes in a centuries-old search for Gutenberg’s secret. Crossing continents to follow clues from an encoded rubric and stolen manuscript, the couple face injury and encounter arcane rituals and biblio-terrorism as they race to find the fabled treasure.

But if they find it, will they survive to tell the world?

Steven George & The Dragon

IT’S NO ORDINARY FAIRY TALE when Steven George the Dragonslayer is sent out to protect his village from the fearsome beast. But as much as the village has tried to prepare Steven—with herb-lore, hunting skills, and vision trances—Steven finds himself woefully unprepared for the big world outside his tiny village. Perhaps that’s because none of the village elders actually knew what a dragon looked like, where it lived, or how to kill it!

The only practical skill Steven has is a unique ability to tell tales. He exchanges these “once-upon-a-times” with each traveler he meets along the way, and each improbable story leads him closer to the truth about his quest: All roads lead to the dragon!

For Blood or Money

YOU'RE A HARD-BOILED detective with all the trimmings. You've got the Seattle Waterfront office, the sexy young assistant who adores you, and an attitude to match the constant gray drizzle outside your window.

Into your office blows this high-society dame boo-hooing about her missing husband and how he always said that if anything happened to him, she should come to you, Dag Hamar. Only problem is that you're a middle-aged computer geek who doesn't do missing persons. The doc has toldyou to stay close to home while you wait for a replacement for your failing ticker. And the only clue the dame brought you was the missing man's laptop.

Did I mention the dame is your ex-wife and the missing man is the former best friend she ran off with 20 years ago? You can't wait to get your hands on that computer!

Enter the world of Dag Hamar and Deb Riley, computer forensics detectives who find out hidden files and computer code can be as dangerous as dark alleys and flying bullets as they enter the high-stakes game of Seattle's business world to trace a missing friend and the billion-dollar fortune that disappeared with him.
