Debut Author Carol Ann Collins Invokes the History and Culture of the Outer Banks in New Cinematic Mystery, THE SEAFARER’S SECRET

Tuesday, March 26th, 2024

NEW YORK, NY—MARCH 26, 2024

From debut author Carol Ann Collins comes an engaging and mesmerizing mystery that centers around the pirate Blackbeard and takes place in the heart of the Outer Banks. Local to North Carolina, Collins deftly weaves in an unexpected, but equally important, role—the town of Eden. Natives, newcomers, and visitors alike will admire her appreciation for the state’s beauty, history and culture, and how evident it is throughout the novel. 

Now available anywhere books are sold, The Seafarer’s Secret expertly blurs the line between truth and myth, as rumors of Blackbeard’s lost treasure start to swell amidst the presence of a serial killer. The Seafarer’s Secret is a thrilling cinematic mystery featuring the exigent slow-burning romance between William and Eva as they work together to reveal the secrets and lies of Eden, North Carolina. Though, in order to have a future, they’ll have to look deep into the past to keep from being a modern-day killer’s next victim.

Writing allows Carol Ann Collins to combine two of her favorite things, history and romance. Her work is a combination of historical fact, pure fiction, and a vivid imagination. An avid reader since childhood, she is also a New York Times bestselling author under a different pen name.

“An engrossing plot with believable characters set in the picturesque Outer Banks combine to make a delightful read.” — J.F. Riordan, author of the North of the Tension Line series

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.

PRESS RELEASE: Illusions of Camelot

FROM BOYHOOD TO NUTCRACKER PRINCE: 

Peter Boal paints a star-studded picture of what it takes to make it as the Principal Dancer for the New York City Ballet and beyond

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

New York, New York — Peter’s story starts in the pastoral and privileged town of Bedford, New York: a rare enclave 40 miles north of New York City where private schools, country clubs, and families hold their own rules and secrets. Within the town, views of race, morality, and sexuality are unspoken yet evident. Meanwhile, at home, Peter and his family are left to grapple with his father’s alcoholism and untimely death. As a young boy finding his way, Peter soon turns to ballet. Ultimately his passion becomes a beacon, leading him to work at the New York City Ballet as a teenager, living on his own while discovering the pitfalls and pleasures Manhattan has to offer.

Throughout Peter’s deeply personal work, you’ll step onto the club house floor during ballroom dancing lessons in Bedford, into the studios of the School of American Ballet at Lincoln Center, and onto the stage in George Balanchine’s The Nutcracker as Peter performs the title role of the Nutcracker Prince. For all the laughter these stories offer, gravity is everywhere.

Peter’s journey takes us to the start of a storied career as a dancer with the New York City Ballet and leaves us with insights into the unique path of an artist and individual shaped by environment, circumstance, and family.

“A multi-functional memoir. It’s a generous, grateful account of discovering ballet as a career; and it’s about the discovery of friends, sexuality, values, and manners…In Boal’s writing, every word and every sentence matter. Subtle variations of tone take the reader, enchantingly, between charm, pain, and humour, often in the course of a paragraph.”

— Alastair Macaulay, 
New York Times, Chief Dance Critic 2007-2018

Producer’s Memoir Reveals Hollywood Secrets

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

New York, New York — Whether you’re trying to break into the film industry, or if you simply have a passion or curiosity for Hollywood, veteran entertainment producer Julian Schlossberg provides a tell-all in his new memoir, Try Not to Hold It Against Me (Beaufort Books; Hardcover & digital; $26.95; on sale January 31st, 2023).

“A LOVE LETTER TO SHOW BUSINESS! Try Not to Hold It Against Me is a must-read written by one of the best & funniest in the industry. Truly a fascinating memoir that will captivate & delight any reader!”

— Susan Stroman, five-time Tony Award-winning Director & Choreographer

From his nearly 60 years in show business, Schlossberg takes us through stories of a lifetime — the trials and triumphs of work and play, in every avenue of the business: negotiating with Al Pacino, Burt Reynolds, and Lillian Hellman; hosting the syndicated radio and television production “Movie Talk;” restoring Orson Welles’ masterly film adaptation of “Othello;” partying with Barbra Streisand; testifying in a lawsuit against The Beatles; and interviewing over 120 of the most influential figures for his series “Witnesses to the 20th Century.”

Written with engaging humor and self-deprecation, Try Not to Hold It Against Me gives readers a behind-the-scenes pass to Hollywood and its secrets. It’s a compelling read for entertainment-enthusiasts alike — and a one-of-a-kind autobiography by one of entertainment’s true insiders.
