About “Cursed Blessing” and J. M. LeDuc:
Shrouded in secrecy, the Ark of the Endowment has remained hidden for millennia. Those fortunate enough to know of its location have but one task: to keep its contents from being stolen. Anyone who partakes of its sacred contents will invoke divine judgment upon the world. Who could resist the temptation of its promise: eternal youth? “Cursed Blessing” is a rollercoaster thriller that will keep you guessing at every turn. Each revelation leads to more questions, cryptic warnings, secret maps, and shady allies.
J.M. LeDuc is a chiropractic physician and grew up in Burlington, Massachusetts. As a young adult, he spent his time in high-risk, adrenaline-pumped experiences like skydiving, triathlons, rodeo, and scuba diving. His passion for physical adventure was put to a halt in 1997 due to injuries, and he has since begun to channel that passion into writing. He now lives in Florida with his wife, Sherri, and their daughter, Chelsea.
About “A Bolt from the Blue” and Diane A.S. Stuckart:
The third work in the intriguing Leonardo da Vinci mystery series brings 15th-century Italy to vivid life. While working on the invention of a flying machine for the Duke of Milan, Leonardo da Vinci investigates the murder of a brilliant apprentice. His own apprentice, secretly a woman, worries that she will be the next victim.
Diane A.S. Stuckart, who also writes as Alexa Smart and Anna Gerard, is a member of that proud breed, the native Texan. But life beyond the Lone Star State beckoned; Diane pulled up stakes and left the plains of North Texas for the beaches of South Florida. There, accompanied by her husband, four dogs, and two cats, she now is finding new sources of inspiration among the sand and palm trees.
