Captain Nancy Martin expects a lonely death. Passing out as her battle-damaged starfighter bleeds the last of its air, she comes to in the cavernous and deserted docking bay of an unknown starship. Leaving her crippled fighter to seek help, she finds she's been scooped up by a gigantic generation ship inhabited by the descendants of the original crew and passengers-people whose entire universe is the ship! Mistaken for the vast ship's long-lost and near-mythical Captain, Nancy is welcomed as a savior. She believes she's found the allies she needs in her desperate fight for survival. But an even greater menace lurks in the shadows of the ship-one that controls every inch of the ship and every life aboard it. One that will stop at nothing to destroy- "The Counterfeit Captain." Set in the same universe as Vogel's best-selling novel, "The Fugitive Heir," "The Counterfeit Captain" further expands the stage for Vogel's exciting brand of star-spanning science fiction adventure.

After Monroe Edwards died in Sing Sing prison in 1847, penny dreadfuls memorialized him as the most celebrated American forger until the turn of the century. With a bizarre biography too complicated for easy history, his critical contributions to Texas settlement, revolution and annexation were inextricably mired in his activities as a slave smuggler and confidence man. Author Lora-Marie Bernard unravels the unbelievable story of one of the most notorious criminal adventurers ever to set foot on the soil of the Lone Star State.

Burning Benjamin is the first book of The Counterfeiter Series. Michael Van Davis II wrote the fiction novel to account his days as a counterfeiter in today's age, where most of the tracking techniques used by Secret Service are digital. The story is told from the voice of a man simply known as Captain, a conspiracy theorist living off-the-grid. Captain wishes to remove his girlfriend, Payton, from a life of dancing in strip clubs, choosing to make his own cash instead. What unveils is a unique story where Captain has a difficult time reigning in the women who spend the counterfeit money by shopping for everything they've ever desired. When Captain adds a mob member for a partner, he learns it's impossible to make good friends in the subculture of carding, counterfeiting, and selling fake merchandise. The novel is a wonderful tale of the world we all live in today, but rarely have the chance to see.

"Thomas Fleming is one of my favorite writers because he combines powerful storytelling with the skills of a superb historian." - John Jakes In his usual fashion, Thomas Fleming intricately weaves fact and fiction, bringing to life this dramatic period of American history. Although most people know the main facts and major players of the Revolutionary War, Fleming incorporates the minor stories and unknown details of colonial life through the fictional adventures of Louisa Bellamy and Dennis O'Leary. Louisa Bellamy is the star of the American Company, a British acting troupe performing in the colonies since 1752. When the American Revolution explodes, the Continental Congress bans the theater as a corrupting influence in the new republic and the company is abruptly ordered to depart for Jamaica. But Louisa decides to stay in America in the hopes of finding a husband, a quest that forces her to deny the love of fellow actor Dennis O'Leary, who later becomes a spy for the rebel Americans. Their tangled story continues through the duration of the Revolution with twists and turns that challenge Louisa's control of her counterfeit heart.

But when she revels in her alter ego a little too willingly, Captain Alec Stewart's potent masculinity proves impossible to resist…. Alec is as much a stranger to the high-class brothel as he is to the feelings that Rosalie incites within him. The passion between them may be unquestionably real, but having met under the guise of secrets and seductions, how can they be sure where the lies end and the truth begins?
