First Run by Martha Carr

Norah Wintry is juggling movie stars with special skills, like shifting into tiger mode, at her LA talent agency with sinister backlot treachery.

Projects in the Hollywood pipeline aren't what they seem, and Norah wants to protect her very special clients. That's not easy when she can't give a good reason to prevent them from signing on to the very lucrative job.

How far is Norah willing to go to prevent Castor and Sid from signing on to write a script with a person she doesn't trust? Especially when being wrong could have deadly consequences.

Now, Norah needs a favor from Geronima.

Geronima agrees to help if Norah helps her study the enormous cephalopod monster that attacked the wicked Armada.

Geronima wants Norah to be the bait - but nothing goes as planned. Will she escape before she becomes a test subject for Esmee and Magdea? It won't be easy to escape the underwater lair of the vermillion.

Can Norah get ahead of Magdea's plans before it's too late?

Michael Anderle (yeah, funny talking about himself in the third person) was born in Houston, Texas (1967-hopefully a long time from now). He got into a lot of trouble as a curious child. When you're grounded, what do you do with an inquisitive mind? I mostly read Science Fiction and Fantasy for the first 20 years of my life. I've been reading Urban Fantasy and Military Fiction for the past ten years.

Given this background, I've been fortunate enough to write The Kurtherian Gambit series, a popular and well-received collection of stories. The fans have propelled these stories beyond my wildest dreams, and they deserve all of the credit for sharing them with their friends, family, and the rare stranger on the street. They're fantastic!
