Technothriller

Release Date: September 7, 2024

 

Every day, we're surrounded by devices with their microphones open. Smartphones, smart speakers, gaming consoles, and a hundred other little devices that you walk by without thinking.

Kerry Chase is just like you and me. He lives his life as a technology user, enjoying the benefits it brings. But one day, all that changed.

 

"You're fired!"

 

An unexpected job change led to an exciting new opportunity, with one major red flag:

• Are you someone who always likes to know what's going on?
• Do you feel like you know what is best for the people in your life?
• We're looking for people like you and have entry level positions available now!
• No prior experience necessary – Flexible hours
• Strong starting salary and benefits with good opportunities for advancement
• On the job training – Work at your own pace
• Must have basic computer skills
• Flexible moral compass a plus

 

Through this job, Kerry takes a peek behind the curtain to see the price we all pay for the technology we use so freely. Are you ready to see what it is The Agency actually does?

About the Author

I grew up in the Midwest and went to a big state school known as much for their football team as anything else. I studied English Literature and History. It was there that I met my wife and we fell in love. We were married when I was in graduate school and during our first few years working after graduation, God showed us the opportunities to be involved in His work around the world.

Since 2000, we've lived outside of the United States, having many amazing experiences and meeting people from around the globe. My experiences traveling and my background in counseling are highly influential in my writing.

Historical Thriller Feature: Echoes of Fortune by David R. Leng #historical #thriller #rabtbooktours @RABTBookTours

 

The Search for Braddock's Lost Gold

Historical Thriller, Historical Fiction

Date Published: August 31, 2024

 

 

In 1755, British Major General Braddock led an army of 2,400 soldiers, including a young Colonel George Washington and Daniel Boone, to retake Fort Duquesne from the French and seize control of the American Frontier—The French & Indian War. Yet, carried by this formidable force was a treasure—gold to be used as payroll for troops and gifts to win over native allies. Its protection throughout the perilous journey, through steep mountains and dense wilderness, weighed heavily on the General’s mind.

Ever since The Battle of the Monongahela, where the French ambushed Braddock’s forces and mortally wounded him, Braddock’s puzzling orders for a hasty, complete retreat from an inferior force have driven rumors he desperately sought to recover the treasure he hid for its protection, but instead, took its location to his grave.

Over the centuries, legends swirled around Braddock’s lost gold, worth a fortune today. The tales of its hiding place, stretching the length of Braddock’s tedious and precarious march from Western Maryland to Southwestern Pennsylvania, have persisted.

Fast forward to today—Join Jack Sullivan and his companions in a heart-pounding quest as they decipher cryptic clues, brave treacherous traps, race against time, and battle aggressive adversaries. Will Jack’s bonds with his friends withstand the ultimate test, or will their pursuit of wealth cost them everything, including their lives?

Nonfiction Feature: Everything I Know About the Universe #nonfiction #rabtbooktours @RABTBookTours

 

Meditations on Reality and Spirituality from a Doctor, a Patient, a Scientist, and a Reluctant Believer

 

Nonfiction

Date Published: June 29, 2024

 

Written from the perspective of a doctor and scientist, Everything that I Know About the Universe is a selection of essays explaining why we need to rethink some of our basic assumptions about science and theology and how the two fields of thought can coexist. The need to ask where we came from and why we're here is a fundamental part of being human. This text seeks to take those two questions and reframe them to show how they can be scientifically answered, but spiritually informed, with appeals made to evolutionary biology, quantum mechanics, cosmology, and large number theory. Along the way, the author lays out definitions for the mind, consciousness, and spirituality, and shows that even if we can't have definitive answers to the big existential questions of life, asking those questions is one of the most important things that we can do. The essays also delve into some of the most important critiques of traditional religious and scientific perspectives on the universe.
