In the News...

Lisa Towles here, grateful to be an invited contributor to this new blog and hoping to be sufficiently entertaining on your stopover at this new site. This is a big week, as my 6th work of fiction has just been launched! That means my book is now available in Kindle, Paperback, and all kinds of other e-formats. 

THE UNSEEN, an international thriller, follows the trials, challenges, and ultimate quest(s) of its main character, Boston Herald investigative journalist, Alex Careski. What's Alex Careski's problem? His wife has been kidnapped, and he blames his father, the father who vanished years ago with a family secret the size of Jupiter. The secret: the whereabouts of an ancient relic - the first page of a 1st century scroll, and the meaning and significance behind the page and its relationship to his family, his past, and his future.


Through its three hundred and something pages, you will see Alex as the hunter and the hunted, traveling beyond Boston to Italy, to Ireland, realizing that traveling three thousand miles away is sometimes the best way to learn where (and who) home really is. 

And like most thrillers, this is just one "thread" of the story, the second following an unthinkable theft of two ancient books from the British Museum. 

I thought the news was that despite its long and tangled history, this book has finally been published. But I think the real news is that this book is about secrets, and no secret can stay buried forever.

Despite their desire to be unseen, secrets...find a way. 

Intrigued? Good! Please support independent authors and buy The Unseen from Amazon and, if you enjoy it, please leave a review so others will buy it too.
Thank you!!

💜Lisa

Welcome to the end of July! Not quite sure how we're so close to August already. Doesn't seem right. The last few days of the Smashword Sale are in full swing. If you're a reader and don't want to pay full price then hop over to Smashwords and grab some bargains! Well, worth having a nosy over there. In 9mm Press news ... Cryptobyte has a release date: Nov 10th! That's pretty exciting. This was said recently about Cryptobyte by Nikki Crutchley (if you haven't read Nikki then do so, you can find her paperbacks at Writers Plot Bookshop ). "Cryptobyte, with its original and intricate plot and gutsy intelligent protagonist, is the kind of blockbuster book where you have to stop and catch your breath once you've finished reading." -  Nikki Crutchley, writer.  [Finalist for the Ngaio Marsh Awards, Best First Novel, 2018.] We will be sharing the cover for Cryptobyte soon! :) Meanwhile, here's a wee video:

I currently write The Byte Series ... and this week ... drum roll please ... The Boxed Set's are 50% off via Smashwords.   Who doesn't want 9 books for well under $10?? Or even 3 books for under $3?

Qubyte (number 10) is entered in the Ngaio Marsh Awards this year - I couldn't take part in any of the Mystery in the Library Events this year (sad) as I was away.  At the moment I'm on the hunt for the perfect image to encapsulate the entire series. Not an easy task.  The Byte Seri
