February 17, 2011 | 
Author COMING MAY 25, 2010!
The Fifth Sign of the Zodiac
New York Times Bestselling Author Vicki Pettersson deals a winning hand in her Signs of the Zodiac Series. Writing Urban Fantasy at its absolute best, Vicki delves her readers into the secret world of Light and Shadow, where the two factions wage an immortal war in Sin City.
Vicki says: “I hate to say the idea for this series came to me in a dream–it sounds too precious and capricious, like writing is something that comes to you rather than something you have to work for – but that’s exactly how this idea germinated. I woke up laughing, having just imagined a caricature-ishly beautiful woman fending off a leather-clad homicidal maniac with an overpriced stiletto. If you’ve read SCENT you’ll know the scene I mean.”
The kick-ass, adrenaline-pumping series begins with THE SCENT OF SHADOW, where heroine, Joanna Archer learns demons have marked her for their own and dining with a serial killer can be hazardous to one’s health.

FEATURED STORY: Robert Gregory Browne’s “Down Among The Dead”
Down Among The Dead
Heart-stopping suspense. Adrenaline pumping action. Robert Gregory Browne delivers deadly stories that you can’t put down and won’t ever forget. His latest book, DOWN AMONG THE DEAD MEN, delves into the search for a missing woman and uncovers a secret cult where worshiping can be…deadly.
The Day of the Dead – El Dia de los Muertos – when Mexico celebrates its lost loved ones. But for disgraced newspaper reporter, Nick Vargas, and attorney, Beth Crawford, it is not an occasion to celebrate. Nick, now a true crime writer, is determined to find the truth behind the slaughter of nuns in a deserted house in the desert, and Beth is desperate to find her younger sister, Jen, who disappeared without trace when they were on holiday in Mexico. Their quest for the truth leads them to a small town in Mexico where a mysterious and malevolent cult are known to perform sinister and deadly rituals. And now Beth and Nick know that they are being watched, and that their enemy is waiting for the right moment to strike . . .
Browne’s talent at telling nail-biting stories didn’t begin with his breathless debut novel KISS HER GOODBYE, but was honed in the grueling trenches of being a staff writer for TV and writing award-winning screenplays for the film industry. His experience, expert story-weaving skills, and shocking twists have paved the way for KISS HER GOODBYE to be the basis for the CBS television series, ATF, starring Dylan Walsh, Micheal Rapaprot, Terry Kinney and Sandrine Hold.
