Hello, ladies and gents! {[] Hope all are coping and well during this very dodgy time!

Ever a master of timing, my latest Oscar Jade book published yesterday, about an hour before Easter Sunday...availability hasn't opened up yet on the Amazon sites, likely due to the holiday weekend, but I thought I would at least share the cover art, and entertain any questions or comments. This is the (long-delayed) second book in the series, and I hope to keep writing them until I shuffle off this mortal coil.

MIAMI BEACH – 1942:

Jade’s prisoner laughed. “My name is John Smith,” he said. “I am visiting Miami
Beach from Indianapolis, where I work in a factory that manufactures tools for the
automotive industry. I am married to a woman named Frances, and I have three children. I
go to church every Sunday, and listen to Chicago White Sox games on the radio.”

Jade took a step closer, his Smith and Wesson extended. “Are you sure?” he asked
coolly. “That’s your story? That’s what you’re going to stick with?”

“My name is John Smith,” he repeated, with a smile that could not be tolerated.

“All right,” Oscar Jade readily agreed, and put a bullet through the top of his right
foot.


Oscar Jade, a private detective in Miami Beach in 1942, is investigating the suicide of a
friend…and he doesn’t believe it’s a suicide. As he investigates, the stakes soon escalate to life
and death – for a great many people – and it soon becomes clear that a world war is about to be
fought, right here…at home.

    {[] Great News, I really enjoyed Jade's first adventure. Hopefully Amazon will
    have it available soon, at these times of Lock-down, we all need new stuff to read.
    The art work looks great very of the period -{

    Well done on getting the new novel completed Loeffelholz, and also to Darenhat for the artwork. I wish you the best of luck with the release, I hope it sells well!

    The paperback copy is now online on the British Amazon website: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Storm-Maker-Oscar-Jade-Thriller/dp/1977221467/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=storm+maker+mark+loeffelholz&qid=1586981969&sr=8-1

    Unfortunately, the virus apparently has dictated that it isn't immediately available, as more essential things are understandably shipping first...but when the digital platforms come online, I will share it here as well in case anyone is interested. If anyone would like a signed paperback copy (of either or both Jade books) sent across the pond, PM me and I can make that happen.

    Just for fun, here's the back cover author photo...any similarity with my AJB avatar may or may not be coincidental ;)

    Great news, out of interest should we look out for a "Bond" Easter egg somewhere
    as before ?
