Book 2 - Official Blurb

Hello from Spy Land!

How silly does the word "blurb" sound? According to my on-line dictionary …

blurb

blərb
noun
1. a short description of a book, movie, or other product written for promotional purposes and appearing on the cover of a book or in an advertisement.

… thing is, that silly word is probably the most important few words ever written about a book. The next spy story is probably about a month from release and after a week of thinking, writing, deleting and MORE writing … the blurb is taking shape.

So, I'm posting it here for you to look at and comment back. Did I snag your imagination? Is this something you'd like to download into your reader for your next vacation flight?

Can't wait to hear what you think … td@fstopespresso.com

And now, without more silly words …


SYNOPSIS:


Three generations of elite spies battle a global conspiracy to control all aspects of human society decades in the making. From the day they were adopted as babies and brought to the remote island town of Stromness, Léa Taylor and Tara Wells emerged from childhood with survival skills unmatched by the world’s top intelligence agents and assassins.

As Léa and Tara embark on their second mission for The Castle, they begin to learn they’re not on the trail of a single rogue agent, but a world wide network of evil with the simple goal of complete total domination of everyday life on Earth. That trail began over twenty years ago as the second generation of Castle Spies began their lives in the shadows with a daring rescue from the dungeons of the KGB’s feared Lubyanka Prison.

Using technology that leapfrogs the current state of the art, Léa and Tara devise a high-tech scheme to smoke out the location of their target, only to watch as their digital spies are turned against them leading them on a high speed, non stop chase through a famous castle in Austria, down the tracks of Chicago’s famous “L” trains and finally into the back country of Glacier National Park. A chase that would end with the two best friends brutally ripped apart.

CASTLE IN THE MOUNTAINS is the exciting sequel to Léa and Tara’s first adventure, CASTLE ON THE ISLAND. The Castle of Spies series is a fun, race through the world of secret agents through the eyes of several generations of best friends raised to be the world’s top assassins.
