When Men Betray is the first book of fiction from author, lecturer, and political insider Webb Hubbell. A departure from his previous book, Friends in High Places, an account of his rise and fall in Little Rock, Hubbell crafts a deft narrative of mystery and political intrigue. Set in a fictionalized version of his home town of Little Rock, Arkansas, readers will be immersed into the steamy world behind the southern BBQ and antebellum facade-a seedy underbelly of secrets and betrayals. Clever readers may recognize the colorful personalities and locales of the Arkansas political scene.

After a highly publicized fall from grace, James Henry Ferguson attempts to flee from the chaos and ends up in a community that has been neglected and ignored by everyone, rural Ham, Mississippi—a place of abject poverty, the neighborhood is commonly referred to as “Around the Way.”

When a troubling discovery is made, the entire neighborhood is rocked, and “Mr. Jimmy” is forced to confront his own past in order to help the community have a future.

Police chief William Templeton is still trying to come to terms with being a widower when a local woman’s body is found with an old gold coin in her pocket. He is stunned to learn an identical coin was discovered on his wife, Catherine. Historian and Blackbeard expert, Eva Knightly is just as perplexed by this revelation.

As the two team up, secrets are revealed and William and Eva find it hard to ignore the growing attraction between them; but in order to have a future, they’ll have to look to the past to keep Eva from being the victim of a modern day killer.

RED HOTEL THRILLER SERIES: RED HOTEL, RED DECEPTION, RED CHAOS EXPAND OFFERINGS

Tuesday, September 12th, 2023

Look for all formats of the books by Ed Fuller and Gary Grossman in Bookstores and Online Now


LAGUNA HILLS, CA, UNITED STATES, September 12, 2023. As the award-winning third book in their Red Hotel Series of international thrillers, Red Chaos, by Ed Fuller and Gary Grossman has gone into its 5th printing, the offerings of the Red Hotel Series have been expanded.

Ed Fuller and Gary Grossman keep thrilling and enticing readers in the series! No matter how you want to consume books, the series has your favorite formats: beautiful hardcovers, paperbacks (available soon and for pre-order), and ebooks. Partnering together for the Red Hotel Series, Former Marriott International president and director of FBI National Academy Associates, Ed Fuller, and award-winning network television producer and bestselling author, Gary Grossman, continue with their trademark adrenaline intensity, combining firsthand international experience with hot political drama unnervingly echoing today’s headlines. 

In the latest book, Red Chaos, Dan Reilly continues his quests as he investigates a rash of terrorist attacks around the world. As the president of the international division of the Kensington Royal Hotel Corporation, it’s his job to stop trouble before it reaches red, the deadliest level in his five-tier Red Hotel threat assessment plan.

The Arctic ice is melting, the waters are warming, and Russia’s ever-expanding fleet of oil tankers grind through the Northern Sea Route to China. With a fleet of nuclear ice breakers clearing the way, Russian ships were setting new records to reach China and fulfilling a simple equation: Russian President Nicolai Gorshkov needs China’s money to fund his expansionism plans past Ukraine and Latvia while China, the thirstiest oil nation in the world, needs affordable fuel.

Red Chaos

How these seemingly different elements have a profound impact on Russia’s far-reaching plans is what makes Red Chaos a thriller to be read like breaking news.

Leading up to Red Chaos, Red Hotel, and Red Deception set the stage for Dan Reilly’s thrilling escapades. Start with book one or jump in with books two or three. Better yet, in October, catch all three books in one ebook bundle. That way you get all the action from start to finish with a single purchase.

It will (teaser) get you prepared for book four, Red Ultimatum, as the series continues with a plot twist including the secretary of State being kidnapped and the former President’s plane going down all the while that Russia and China threaten the Panama Canal and Cairo…and more!

RECENT REVIEWS

RED HOTEL

“Welcome to my world. RED HOTEL is a thriller that dramatically covers a very real global threat that could redraw nation boundaries and lead the superpowers to the brink of war. Fuller and Grossman echo the warning, ‘If you see something, say something.’ They’re saying it loud and clear in RED HOTEL.”

Steve Tidwell, Former Executive Assistant Director, FBI, Criminal, Cyber, Response, and Services Branch

RED DECEPTION

RED HOTEL combined the authors’ real-world experiences into a very compelling, breakneck-paced scenario that captures the imagination. RED DECEPTION takes us even further into the complex world where globalized economics and travel are integrally woven into politics, terror, intrigue, and more. Fiction that’s all too real!”

Will Grimsley, Major General, US Army, (Ret.)

RED CHAOS

“I’ve been engaged in national and homeland security for over 45 years, I seldom read fiction. When I do, it is historical fiction. While RED CHAOS is not an historical novel, given today’s news, it affords the reader an extremely compelling, most realistic, and fast paced story. In crafting this riveting read, Ed Fuller and Gary Grossman have written a thriller that reflects their impressive knowledge of today’s strategic global dynamics. RED CHAOS is a timely must read for those seeking a book that is both stimulating and eye-opening.”

William Carwile, Colonel, US Army (Ret), Former Associate Administrator, FEMA

RED CHAOS, along RED HOTEL, and RED DECEPTION are published by Beaufort Books and available in print, ebook, and Audible additions at Amazon, Barnes & Noble or a bookstore near you. To learn more about RED CHAOS, RED DECEPTION, RED HOTEL, the authors, news, and events, go to redhotelseries.com.

Red Chaos

The Arctic ice is melting, the waters are warming, and Russian President Nicolai Gorshkov is one step closer to monopolizing the oil industry and funding his expansionism plans past Ukraine and Latvia. Russian-backed attacks have shut down the Suez Canal and other key shipping routes, making it nearly impossible for the West and the Middle East to transport oil.

With nothing less than oil futures and the global economy at stake, one man slips out of the shadows to stop Gorshkov’s maniacal plans: Dan Reilly, a freelance State Department and CIA consultant. In his attempts, Reilly is drawn into a web of intrigue twelve years in the making, involving the current American president, a United States senator, a Chinese businessman, and the death of a young girl. How these seemingly unrelated elements have a profound impact on Russia’s far-reaching plans is what makes Red Chaos a thriller to be read like breaking news.
Red Chaos is the third novel in the acclaimed Red Hotel series by thriller masters Ed Fuller and Gary Grossman who America’s political and intelligence insiders have noted, “might as well sit on the National Security Council.”

Red Deception Reviewed by Midwest Book Review

Synopsis: When terrorists bomb bridges across the country and threaten the Hoover Dam, the vulnerability of America’s infrastructure becomes a matter of national security. But Dan Reilly, a former Army intelligence officer, predicted the attacks in a secret State Department report written years earlier — a virtual blueprint for disaster, somehow leaked and now in the hands of foreign operatives.

With Washington distracted by domestic crises, Russian President Nicolai Gorshkov sends troops to the borders of Ukraine and Latvia, ready to reclaim what he feels is Russia’s rightful territory. Tensions in Europe threaten to boil over as a besieged American president balances multiple crises that threaten to upend the geopolitical order. With the US at the mercy of an egomaniacal leader, and reporters and covert agents on his tail, Reilly may be the one man who can connect the dots before an even bigger catastrophe unfolds.

Critique: The second volume in the second book in authors Gary Grossman and Ed Fuller’s the Red Hotel series, “Red Deception” is another deftly crafted suspense thriller/action adventure novel from first page to last — and unreservedly recommended for community library Mystery/Suspense/Espionage/Terrorism fiction collections. It should be noted for personal reading lists that “Red Deception” is also readily available in a digital book format (Kindle, $9.49).

Red Deception, Geopolitical Thriller Released

Blending the experiences of his long career in the international tourism industry, having retired after 40 years with Marriott Lodging, the last 22 as President & Managing Director of Marriott International, and his first-hand knowledge of global politics, Ed Fuller partnered with acclaimed author, Gary Grossman to captivate readers once again as they draw a chilling portrait of the fragile fault lines in Europe and the players poised to seize power.

When terrorists bomb bridges across the country and threaten the Hoover Dam, the vulnerability of America’s infrastructure becomes a matter of national security. Once again, Dan Reilly, a former U.S. Army intelligence officer, predicted the attacks in a secret State Department report written years earlier – a virtual blueprint for disaster, that was somehow leaked and is now in the hands of foreign operatives.

Washington is distracted by domestic crises as Russian President Nicolai Gorshkov sends troops to the borders of Ukraine and Latvia, ready to reclaim what he feels is Russia’s rightful territory. Tensions in Europe threaten to boil over as a besieged American president balances multiple crises that threaten to upend the geopolitical order. With the U.S. at the mercy of an egomaniacal leader, and reporters and covert agents on his tail, Reilly may be the one man who can connect the dots before an even bigger catastrophe unfolds.
