Hi there,

Over the last few months I published two novels that, on the surface, have nothing in common.

The first begins on a small Greek island. Renata Richardson is twenty-two and spending the summer working at a beach bar. One night she’s taken by seven masked men who flew in on a private jet for what turns out to be a “tour” arranged for very rich clients. The police aren’t interested, and the men fly home sure no one will ever find them. That’s The Domino Murders.

The second begins at the bottom of the world, in Antarctica. A scientist named Klaire Davis finds a prehistoric woman frozen in the ice, perfectly preserved, and she was pregnant. Klaire’s mentor wants to hide the discovery and sell it. Klaire makes a decision that changes the rest of her life, and her daughter’s. That’s The Girl Who Outruns Shadows.

A cop and a spy would be the usual heroines for stories like these. Renata waits tables and Klaire studies ice cores. Neither one has anyone coming to save her, so at some point each of them simply stops waiting.

I didn’t plan it, but when I set the two books side by side, that’s what jumped out at me. I’ve been surrounded by strong, independent women my whole life, and I suppose it shows up in my writing whether I mean it to or not.

So I’ve put both stories together in one volume: Women Who Fight Back. Both are complete, all seven episodes from beginning to end. As a bonus, I’ve added Book 1 of Passion, Power & Sin at the back.

Women Who Fight Back

If you haven’t read either one yet, this is the least expensive way to get both stories, plus the bonus book. And if you’re in Kindle Unlimited, it’s free to read.

Foreign-language editions (German, French, Spanish, Italian and Portuguese) are on their way and should be out in a day or two.

Happy reading,

Mike
