Holiday Special on My Hardboiled Mystery
As part of a limited holiday special, I'm selling my novel IDENTITY CRISIS for 99 cents on Amazon, BN.com and Smashwords.
Description: A simple domestic abuse case turns deadly when the alleged abuser is killed and Stephanie Ann “Sam” McRae’s client disappears. When a friend asks Sam to find Melanie Hayes, the Maryland attorney is drawn into a complex case of murder and identity theft that has her running from the Mob, breaking into a strip club and forming a shaky alliance with an offbeat private investigator to discover the truth about Melanie and her ex-boyfriend. With her career and life on the line, Sam’s search takes her from the blue-collar Baltimore suburbs to the mansions of Gibson Island. Along the way, she learns that false identities can hide dark secrets, and those secrets can destroy lives. Review: “Of suspense, Alfred Hitchcock once said, ‘There is no terror in the bang, only in the anticipation of it.’ Author Debbi Mack nails that statement in this tightly written tale about a flawed Maryland attorney, ‘Sam’ McRae, and her relentless search for a killer when the domestic abuse case she has been handling kicks itself up a notch: The accused is found dead and his wife has taken off. Not good. Add to that the FBI, the Mob, identity theft, and a vulnerable main character involved with a married prosecutor and you have a darn good page-turner. Debbi Mack crafts a taut narrative with crackling dialogue.” -- Aimee Zuccarini, The Maryland Women's Journal, Oct./Nov. 2009. The sequel LEAST WANTED will be released in January 2011. Thanks, Debbi Debbi Mack [In-text links deleted - MODERATOR] Last edited by Dr. Drib; 03-10-2014 at 12:08 PM. |

I'm all for self-plugging, so here's my effort! lol
A topical, hard hitting crime/thriller, that covers the increasing trade in people-trafficking. A female Detective on the hunt for a vile criminal, who kills her partner then abducts her teenage daughter. She encounters many obstacles, including a superior in the Met who opposes everything she tries to achieve to bring the case to a satisfactory conclusion. http://tinyurl.com/2c9ve9w Amazon Uk http://tinyurl.com/332dv5k Amazon USA http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/28137 And at the bargain basement price of $0.99/£0.72, so beat the Christmas rush and buy it today! ![]() ![]() ![]() Melx How was that? Shamless enough? Or lame? lol |

Below is some info on my epic fantasy series, Harbinger of Doom. BTW - Book 1, The Gateway, won 3rd Best Fantasy Novel of 2009 in the Preditors & Editors Readers Poll. Books 1 and 2 are both on sale for .99 cents on Amazon kindle through the end of 2010!
All my books are also available in paperback, and in ebook formats from Barnes & Noble, Smashwords, Apple IPAD, kobo, etc. Summary of Reader Reviews: “...as good as any fantasy tale you will read, it honors the tradition, and adds to our lore a story so good, so well told, I hope it will be remembered forever.” --- Rai Aren, co-author of Secret of the Sands “...fast paced and exciting with characters real enough to leap out of the pages...leaves the reader craving more.” --- Franz McLaren, author of Demon Drift and A Night of Dark Delicacies “...Non-stop action that is written so well you can't stop reading it!” -- G.A. Endless, author of Issla: A Vampire Living in the 21st Century “...The author paints each scene and battle so clearly that I felt I was in the middle of the action.” --- Mike Monahan, author of Barracuda. “...The Gateway delivers straight up heroic fantasy with unapologetic hack and slash action.” -- Tracy Falbe, author of The Rys Chronicles “...fast-paced, action-packed fantasy.” --- Debra Purdy Kong, author of Taxed to Death and Fatal Encryption “...An adventure into magic and fantasy that pulls you in and does not let go...left me wanting more.” --- R.M. Putnam, author of Destiny’s Warriors “...the action never stops.” --- Susan McLeod, author of Soul and Shadow Thater tells this tale “...in a voice as pretentious as Tolkein’s.” -- Dennis Batchelder, author of Soul Identity and Soul Intent. “...an excellent foray into dark story adventure.” -- Jacamo Peterson, author of A Hard Place: A Sergeant's Tale, and Blademaster of Norda. THE HARBINGER OF DOOM SAGA The Harbinger of Doom saga centers around one Lord Angle Theta, an enigmatic warrior of unknown origins and mystical power. No mortal man is his match in battle. No sorcery can contain or confound him. No scholar or sage can outwit him. But for all his skills, he is but one of us; a man, a human, who shares our faults, our dreams, and our ambitions. He boldly strides across the land, fearless, peerless, and cloaked in mystery; all his will bent on righting such wrongs as he deems fit. Until the day the Gateway opened and turned the world on its head. On that fateful day, Korrgonn came and washed away our dreams. And his outre' realms of chaos set their unholy mark upon our world and claimed it for their own. Only Theta and his companions see the enemies aligning against us. Only they foresee our end coming -- the end of civilization, the end of the world of man. Only they can hope to turn the tide of madness and preserve all that we hold dear. But no man, not even our greatest hero, can stand against the Lords of Chaos and the dark armies of Nifleheim at their command. Fiends that infiltrate unseen within our ranks, that tear down our temples and our traditions; that devour us from within, unseen, unknown, unheralded, and unopposed until the hour grows far too late. Through the murk and mist that hangs before our eyes, one man only sees true. One man pierces the veil of magic that blinds us all and marks the world as it truly is, revealing secrets, secrets of Angle Theta, so horrifying as to shatter a man's mind and call into question the very nature of good and evil. Join us now on our journey back to the days of high adventure. Book 1: The Gateway (only .99 cents on Kindle) http://www.amazon.com/GATEWAY-Harbin.../dp/B0017H1LCQ Book 2: The Fallen Angle (only .99 cents on Kindle) http://www.amazon.com/FALLEN-ANGLE-H.../dp/B0018G55BY Book 3: Knight Eternal http://www.amazon.com/Knight-Eternal.../dp/B002TG4NN8 Books 1 & 2 combined: Harbinger of Doom http://www.amazon.com/HARBINGER-DOOM.../dp/B0017RHXAK Book 4+ (forthcoming) Glenn G.

Hi Merry Christmas everyone.
I thought I’d share my latest 5 star review with you. I've been a good girl(?) this year, please could I have the next book in the series NOW. I have rarely come across a book that has tickled my literary tastebuds as much as this book did. In fact I was upset when I reached the last page,everyone was so believable and human. The test of a good book for me is.....it isn't a book, I was actually THERE as things unfolded.I cannot wait for the next in the series, and the next, and the next! And it's on sale for $0.99/£0.72 Melx ![]() |

The Venom of Vipers is The Andromeda Strain meets Crichton's Next, a scifi thriller described as "captivating," "fast paced," and "unique." One reviewer wrote, "It's a poignant and fast-paced melding of science fiction, drama, and mystery."
Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004EBT3HW Smashwords: https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/31714 B&N: http://search.barnesandnoble.com/boo...=2940011901249 "When I started reading K.C. May's The Venom of Vipers, I wasn't quite sure what to expect. The book does not fit neatly into a specific genre. It has a little science fiction, a little mystery, and a little thriller aspects to it. May neatly combines elements of those genres to develop her story that stands out in its own right."
