Talks about everything a child would need to know about taking a plane ride. Kid oriented photos are used to illustrate each topic.

 – #2 on Recommended Thriller/Suspense list at Goodreads

Michael Meyer’s book has been compared to Robert Ludlum’s Bourne series, and the writing style has been compared to that of Dean Koontz.

Imagine waking up remembering intimate details about a country in which you have never traveled and fluently speaking a language that you have never spoken. B.J. is living the ideal life. He has a great wife, a wonderful job. And yet he is experiencing life-like vivid dreams of Munich, a city he has never visited.

Stan Halsey is a professor in Saudi Arabia, who sends for his wife to join him. She arrives, and, in the blink of an eye, she vanishes, leaving no trace of ever being alive in either the United States or in Saudi Arabia.

COVERT DREAMS is a fast-paced international suspense thriller that moves from Munich to the burning sands of Saudi Arabia. What is real, and who is responsible for the terrifying nightmare?

DANGEROUS NEW WORLD. OLD-FASHIONED HERO.

Saddle up for a summer of adventure with the trail boss of YA fiction, Wade Boss: Hybrid Hunter!
Meet Wade: Texas-born stuntman, Hollywood animal trainer, and genuinely nice guy. He can’t say ‘no’ to someone in need, so when the L.A.P.D. asks for his help to catch an escaped tiger that’s gotten trapped in an old lady’s garage, he jumps in his super-sized pickup truck and races to the scene.

Wade finally corners the rogue animal, only to discover it is no tiger, but a half-tiger hybrid terror! By the skin of his teeth he survives and captures the ghastly beast unharmed, which puts him on the radar of a covert hybrid-hunting agency.
Wade’s conscience quickly embroils him in a desperate struggle to protect unsuspecting civilians from a growing threat: genetic hybrids being engineered – and then unleashed – by mad scientists-unknown!

But no sooner does Wade discover his affinity for hybrid hunting than he realizes it has turned his loved ones into targets…
