THE DRAGON arrives early!

Dear friends,

You’re all aware of the current events involving Russia and its new war, along with the potential for that war expanding beyond a regional conflict. Because my current series revolves around a Russian/Chinese attack on the United States, I’ve decided to release the e-book and paperback of The Dragon early. The release date has been moved from April 28 to February 28.

The Dragon is the second book in my Mystery Babylon series, so be sure to read the first book (The Bear) before you read the new release. Here’s the scoop on The Dragon….

A major earthquake, followed by a mega-tsunami, might swamp Russia and China’s war on the United States.

Suspected of collaborating with the enemy, Sierra Forester needs a safe place to hunker down until she can clear her name. Austin Martin might be able to help… or he might be the source of even greater problems. If he risks his life to protect her, can either survive?

Soon after arriving at their remote Alaskan hideout, a mega-tsunami sends Sierra and Austin running for their lives. Can they escape a watery death? How will this natural disaster affect Alaska – and all of the Pacific coast?

Meanwhile, Russia and China step up their war on the United States. Battles are being fought on multiple fronts. Neither side has yet resorted to nuclear weapons, but it’s only a matter of time. Can America fend off the communists?  Or will the Russian bear and the Chinese dragon finally pin their enemy to the ground?

THE DRAGON is the second book in my thrilling post-apocalyptic Mystery Babylon series. Begin this clean, faith-based adventure today!

Mystery Babylon series launches on Monday!

Merry Christmas, everyone! I hope you all have a blessed holiday and a joyful new year.

My new series, Mystery Babylon, launches on Dec. 26 with Book 1: The Bear.

Deception and collusion lead to disaster.

As the nation slowly crumbles around her, Sierra Forester returns home for a wedding – and finds herself in the center of an FBI investigation. She discovers her university friends are not who she thought they were… and they’ve left her in a perilous predicament.

A quiet, reclusive stranger has moved to the tiny Southeast Alaskan island she calls home. Can she trust him? Or anyone?

Meanwhile, Russia and China have launched hybrid warfare against the United States. A sleepy administration is slow to respond. Will they wake up in time to save the country? Or will the nation collapse into the waiting jaws of the Russian bear and the Chinese dragon?

We won an award. :)

My upcoming book, The Bear, has won a Gold Star award in Nessgraphica’s Book Cover Design Awards. I generally don’t enter contests, but my fabulous design team at Deranged Doctor Design submitted the cover on behalf of my designer, Milo.

Here’s what the judge had to say:

Alexander von Ness: Great cover design! If this competition had two winners, this cover design would be the second winner. Everything is done properly. Composition, typography, color tonality, everything is done very professionally. I would love to see the next book when it is designed 😉

Congratulations, Milo!
