HARD MAN FALLING by J.D.Buchanan

1

At a well-known building on the deserted shore of Lake Quechua situated in a tiny mountain valley near Samandaca, Colombia, state of Boyaca, a party was in progress. To describe it as “lurid” would be vastly understating its possibilities.
Once a proper resort in the German-Swiss chalet style, in recent years the venue was never referred to in polite society, that is, feminine society, other than by its euphemism, “The Villa.” In reality, it was an elegant bordello, mostly servicing the men made wealthy by the surrounding emerald mines, the largest in the world.
The orgiastic party, very private, was hosted by Cesar Linares, one of the brothers of the late Don Alberto Linares, the so-called “Emerald King” of these mountains, on the occasion of his adopted son’s birthday.
The son, Oscar Fuentes, a thick-set, dark-minded young man with a morbid humor was on that day twenty-nine. He had maintained his surname, Fuentes, despite his gratitude to his “father” for taking him off of the streets of Bogotá when he was eight.
Oscar had been one of those wild young “gamines,” orphans who roam South American cities in gangs seeking out targets of opportunity. He could not remember either of his real parents, if he had ever had any as opposed to a squat and drop in the fields or alleys, nor how he got on the streets. He had bestowed the Fuentes name upon himself for reasons he had forgotten.
He paraded himself as a “businessman” but was unrecognizable as a Linares, an aristocratic Castilian family that claimed to descend from the Conquistadors. He wore loud clothes, chewed with his mouth open and intimidated people when he entered a room. There was no doubt that Cesar, childless in his only marriage, loved him, but essentially he was his father’s thug, capable of anything.

MYSTERIES FOR MUTTS - A Fundraiser for Animals in Need

Hi everyone!

I'm asking animal lovers and mystery readers to come together in raising money for a worthwhile cause -- to benefit New Jersey's abandoned, abused and neglected animals. I'm pledging for each copy of Last Exit In New Jersey sold from December 1, 2010 through January 31, $1.00 will be donated to the New Jersey Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (www.njspca.org).

The NJSPCA, a non-profit organization, receives no government aid or tax dollars. It is funded solely by donations, grants, bequests and fines levied. My goal is to raise not only funds, but public awareness for the NJSPCA as they aid the welfare of animals throughout the state. Donations can also be made directly to the NJSPCA through their website: www.njspca.org

Priced at $2.99, Last Exit In New Jersey has met with glowing reviews, including 5 Stars from Red Adept, and has been described as fast, well written, entertaining and a shining example of what self-published can and should be. Check it out at http://www.cegrundler.com/works.htm – if it sounds like something you'd enjoy, grab a copy; you’ll get a great read AND you’ll help protect animals from abuse, cruelty and neglect.

Well, this may not be news-worthy, but I just got a nice review for my romantic comedy, CELEBRITIES FOR BREAKFAST:

For your consideration: Serendipity House

Demoralized by her mother and fiancé, Sylvie heads for the hills on the day she’s to wed. Coming across a quaint country inn with an intriguing name, she impulsively checks into Serendipity House where she finds the support and genuine affection she’s always longed for. She even accepts the job of managing it.

When Alex arrives, she immediately becomes suspicious. Why would an attractive and distinguished man want to vacation at an inn that’s clearly seen better days? Determined to avoid him, she, nonetheless, finds herself falling in love with him.

Then she learns that Alex didn’t just happen upon the inn, that he’s actually a streetwise PI sent by her jilted fiancé to bring her home. Making matters worse, he’s also bought the inn and is now her boss.

Thanks for reading and a very Happy New Year to you.

At the moment, my novel Remix is discounted by Amazon in the UK to 49p. It's been in the UK top 100 Kindle chart for 78 days, and has 58 reviews, 57 of them 5 and 4 star.

In the US, Remix is $0.99, with 11 good reviews.

Here's the blurb:

Caz Tallis restores rocking horses in her London workshop. When shabby but charismatic Joe and his dog turn up on her roof terrace, she is reluctantly drawn into investigating a rock star’s murder from three years before – an unsolved case the police have closed. Somebody is prepared to kill to prevent it being reopened – and is Caz's judgment clouding as she falls in love?

REMIX is a feel-good page turner, that you won't want to put down until you reach the satisfying ending.

If I can recreate my last 3 ebook royalty payments through 2011 I'll be able to say I'm living off my writing.

That's something I -never- would have foreseen at the start of 2010.

Well, this thread is obviously working. I only made it to page 15, but if you pimped your wares within those first 15 pages, there's a really good chance I purchased at least one of your books (or downloaded, in the case of free offerings). I'm very much looking forward to reading them.

It may be a few weeks before I can afford to read the rest of the thread.
