#Newbook. ‘His Revenge’ by John W. Howell (@HowellWave). A hero’s work is never done.

Hi all:

As you know, on Fridays I bring you new books. Today, one of the authors I have met in many places through social media, but who hadn’t yet visited my blog, John W. Howell has published a new book, and it was an unmissable chance to introduce him to you. Here he is, with his new novel and a reminder of the first one in the series.

Announcing His Revenge by John W. Howell is now available in paper and ebook on Amazon.

The sequel to My GRL titled His Revenge is available and a new story continues where My GRL left off.

In Canada in Paper and Kindle editions

In the UK in Paper and Kindle editions

Here is the blurb:

America loves John Cannon, its newest hero, and the President wants to present him with the highest civilian medal for bravery for saving the Annapolis midshipman from a terrorist plot to destroy them. While in Washington for the award ceremony, John unwillingly becomes an accomplice in another plan by the same group to attack the credibility of the US President and the stability of the worldwide oil market. There is no way out as John either becomes a traitor to America or causes thousands of innocent people to die if he refuses.

The second John J Cannon Thriller moves from a barrier Island off the coast of Texas to Washington DC, then to Northern California, and finally to Ecuador. John is on the receiving end of an offer he cannot, refuse. His avowed enemy Matt Jacobs now wants John to help him shake the reputation of the US in the world political arena and disrupt confidence in the government at home. If John refuses, Matt plans to murder innocent Americans including John’s latest relationship. John’s only way out is to pretend to go along with the plan and hope for a miracle.

Excerpt from Chapter one

The water rushes over my head. I’m sinking and don’t know why. With my breath held, I have trouble stopping the air from escaping since the pressure drives the air up and out. I try to keep my mouth closed, but the water pressure pushes the air out more and more. Will I pass out? In the distance, the light is dim. To rise to the surface in time might not be possible─I need to breathe right now. Toward ending the pain in my chest, my rambling mind rationalizes taking a deep breath—even knowing it will end my life. In conflict with the irrational thought of ending it, my body won’t let me suck in the water, as it fights to retain the little bit of oxygen left to fuel my brain.

The despair is nearly overwhelming, and my mind considers other ways to battle the feeling. What more could I have done with my life? The pressure becomes more intense, and I’m about to lose it all, and I decide I’ve lived the way I wanted and have no regrets. I close my eyes and hear only the roar of the sea. I’m so tired. Exhausted. Sleep will fix everything, and I want to give in.

In 2020 obtained the CELTA certificate as a language teacher, and offer Spanish and English classes. Writers and readers both in English and Spanish are my friends, colleagues, and allies, and after living in the UK for over twenty-five years, have returned home, to Barcelona, Spain, searching for inspiration for my stories.

Reads like exciting stuff, in the style of Tom Clancy. We could have another ‘Jack Ryan’ here! Good luck to John with his books, and I hope his sales exceed expectations.
Best wishes, Pete.

Oh my dear friend, you are the best! I already added you 🙂 The truth is, that my Google + is desperately neglected… yet, I have a button linked to it on the front page of this blog. SEO first 😉 I have a neglected Pinterest account too, and a neglected Flickr, and a few even more neglected Google features… I think that the people who have perfect SEO have it done for them by a loyal family member or an employee 🙂
Thank you again, sweet Lady!
Love and very best wishes

Thanks, Inese. To be honest I mostly share the blog everywhere and other than replying in Twitter and Facebook I do very little anywhere else (share the book reviews in some book sites and Amazon). I’m trying Instagram but I think it’s a lost battle as images and me…

I don’t even have Instagram… One has to have a full staff to keep an eye on Social media affairs. If you work, you have no time for such nonsense. I suspect that importance of all this vanity is overestimated. You are right, Twitter and Facebook is sufficient.

Even putting 12 hours a day you can’t catch up. And the returns with regards to sales, at least for me, are minimal. But I enjoy blogging and commenting on others’ blogs, but one can’t fit everything in and sometimes we lose sight of our priorities.
Be well!
