If you enjoy Clive Cussler, then here is another great thriller for your ebookshelf...

Blood Canal is a chillingly current, high stakes struggle for the fate of the Ocean Diamond, the world's biggest cruise ship on its maiden voyage.

Blood Canal, or 'Nahr Damm' in Arabic… is an enigmatic phrase found in the treasure trove of data retrieved by Navy SEALs from Osama Bin Laden's lair in Pakistan… a reference to an ancient site where a Muslim warlord turned a nearby canal red with the blood of his victims.

It's a codename… but what's the target?

The CIA's supercomputer kicks out a long list of prospects including the world's biggest cruise ship now on her maiden voyage. The Ocean Diamond is a ship as big as a city… and no doubt a trophy target for Al Qaeda. But the evidence is slim… little more than a digital hunch… and the ship is fortress of high-tech security.

Leo de Sade, a former American hacker reborn with a new identity thanks to the French Foreign Legion, is the unlikely hero signed up to ride shotgun. But what starts out as a simple security operation soon becomes a desperate fight for survival when the ship and her 9,000 passengers and crew are menaced by a smart weapon of devastating destructive power, and Leo uncovers a conspiracy of players far more dangerous than Al Qaeda.

With breathless pace… intricate plotting, and authentic detail, Blood Canal is a feast for lovers of page-turning suspense.

Welcome to KindleBoards, Shea, and congratulations on your book!

(If you've gotten this welcome before, it's just as a matter of housekeeping. We like to put a copy of the "welcome letter" in each book thread. It doesn't mean you've done anything wrong, it just helps us know that you know the rules.)

A brief recap of our rules follows:

--We invite you to use your book cover as your avatar and have links to your book and website in your signature. Instructions are posted here

--Please bookmark this thread (using your browser's bookmark/favorite function) so you can update it as we ask that authors have only one thread per book and add to it when there is more information. You may start a separate thread for each book (or you may have one thread per series of books, or one thread for all of your books, it's your choice).

--While you may respond to member posts to your thread at any time, you may only bump your thread (back-to-back posts by you) once every seven days. Once you've responded to a member, that resets the clock to zero and you must wait seven days to post, unless another member posts before then.

--We ask that Amazon reviews not be repeated here as they are easy to find at your book link. Also, full reviews from other sites should not be posted here, but you may post a short blurb and a link to the full review instead.

--Although self-promotion is limited to the Book Bazaar, our most successful authors have found the best way to promote their books is to be as active throughout KindleBoards as time allows. This is your target audience--book lovers with Kindles! Please note that putting link information in the body of your posts constitutes self promotion; please leave your links for your profile signature that will automatically appear on each post. For information on more ways to promote here on KindleBoards, be sure to check out this thread:
Authors: KindleBoards Tips & FAQ.

All this, and more, is included in our Forum Decorum. Be sure to check it from time to time for the current guidelines and rules.
