Exciting news! The Kidnap Victim, the Travelers Book 5, is now out. It was supposed to be released next week, but I couldn’t wait. To thank all of you for your support, the eBook will be $.99 until May 15. Then it goes up to its normal price of $3.99. Here’s the link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07CRY2MNJ

To celebrate the release of book 5, The Traveling Man eBook will be free for two days—May 9 and 10, and The Traveler Series Books 2 & 3: The Computer Heist and The Blackmail Photos eBook boxed set, and The Freeport Robbery eBook will both be discounted from May 9 through May 15. So if you’re behind, now’s your time to catch up on the series. And don’t worry, I’ll remind you on May 9 so you won’t miss out.

Here’s the description of The Kidnap Victim:

When the hard men come with their guns. . . and bundle you into the trunk of a car. . . who do you wish had your back?

The Traveling Man and a new partner have their eyes on a safe deposit box full of drug money when the new partner’s husband unexpectedly shows up, muddling up the score.

Meanwhile, the Traveling Man’s wife, who’s busy charming the daughter of her new boyfriend, is spotted by an old mark they previously swindled, a mark who’s looking for payback.

The Kidnap Victim is a gritty crime thriller with twist and turns galore. If you like fast-paced action, devious plot twists, and criminal mischief, you’ll love the fifth novel in the Travelers series.

And the review:

“For this latest Travelers outing, King . . . once again offers a lean, dialogue-driven blast of shifting alliances and action. . .. With minimal exposition, the author keeps his characters’ temperaments and decisions in the forefront of the story. . .. As always, King leaves his creations in intriguing new positions by the end, ensuring anticipation for the next high-stakes volume.This Travelers tale delivers another exceptional slice of gamesmanship, slippery morals, and emotional fallout.”—Kirkus Reviews

I can’t wait to hear what you think of the new book.

 

 

Happy Holidays!

Whatever you’re celebrating this time of year, I want to wish you and yours a wonderful holiday season and a fantastic New Year.

A new Travelers thriller, The Kidnap Victim, will be coming out in the spring of 2018. It takes place immediately after the action in The Freeport Robbery. In it, the Travelers are each working on their own. The Traveling Man and a new partner have their eyes on a safe deposit box full of drug money when the new partner’s husband unexpectantly shows up. Meanwhile, Mrs. Traveling Man, who’s busy charming the daughter of her new boyfriend, is spotted by an old mark they previously swindled. What could possibly go wrong?

And while you’re waiting for The Kidnap Victim, if you like Scandinavian crime thrillers, check out Leena Lehtohainen’s books. They’re very different from mine—the hero’s a young Finnish police woman—but they’re great fun.

Happy New Year!

The Double Cross Release

Comments 0 Comment

Woo hoo! The Double Cross, the new Travelers eBook, is now out on Amazon. I have to admit that I’m pretty excited. To thank you all for your support, The Double Cross will be $0.99 from today through Monday 11 September.

Here’s the official description:

In 1989, where it all begins…

A con artist betrayed by his partners. A plot for revenge. Can he and his new partner outwit his old crew… and escape with the cash and their lives?

Paul Kendal, 26 years old, is a con artist in a robbery crew. When he has all the information necessary to disarm their targets’ alarm systems and empty their safes, his partners go to work.

Originally, it seemed like a sweet plan, but as he begins to have doubts, his partners double-cross him. Now he wants payback. For that he needs a new partner.

Carol, 17 years old, uses her movie-star good looks to entice victims for her boyfriend to mug. But when her boyfriend lands in jail, Paul makes her an offer she can’t refuse…

The Double Cross is a novella-length dark crime thriller that tells the story of how the Travelers met. If you like fast moving action, unpredictable plot twists, and criminal chicanery, you’ll love this prequel to Michael P. King’s Travelers series.

Here’s the Amazon link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B075FH4RWR

Exciting news! The Double Cross, the new Travelers novella, will be out next week! Some readers were interested in how the Travelers met, so I wrote this prequel that takes place in 1989. Once again, Paramita at creativeparamita.com did a great job with the cover.

Woohoo! The Freeport Robbery, the new Travelers eBook, is now out on Amazon. It  will be priced at $0.99 today through Thursday as my way of saying Thank You! Then the price goes up to $3.99.

Here’s the Amazon link to buy the book: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B071NHN3VZ

Just like the other Travelers books, this novel received an excellent review from Kirkus Reviews. Here’s the link to the review: https://www.kirkusreviews.com/book-reviews/michael-p-king/freeport-robbery/

And here’s the official description:

Treachery. Conspiracy. Murder.

The Travelers, using the names Ron and Nicole Carter, break into a freeport vault to recover a stolen jewelry casket for return to a museum. Easy money. But after they’re ambushed during the break-in, they have to recover the casket if they’re going to stay out of prison. And now a vicious gang is hot on their trail . . .

 The Freeport Robbery is a noir crime thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat. If you like nonstop action, exciting plot twists, and criminal machinations, you’ll love the fourth installment of Michael P. King’s Travelers series.

Finally, if you could leave an honest review on Amazon after you read the eBook, it would mean so much to me. I need reviews in order to promote the book to new readers. Just a few words is all it takes. Here’s the review link: http://amzn.to/2pbpcHv
