onedayinbudapestA relic, stolen from the heart of an ancient city.
An echo of nationalist violence not seen since the dark days of the
Second World War.

Budapest, Hungary. When a priest is murdered at the Basilica of St. Stephen and the Holy Right relic is stolen, the ultra-nationalist Eröszak party calls for retribution and anti-Semitic violence erupts in the city.

Dr Morgan Sierra, psychologist and ARKANE agent, finds herself trapped inside the synagogue with Zoltan Fischer, a Hungarian Jewish security advisor. As the terrorism escalates, Morgan and Zoltan must race against time to find the Holy Right and expose the conspiracy, before blood is spilled again on the streets of Budapest.

One Day In Budapest is a chilling view of a possible future as Eastern Europe embraces right-wing nationalism. A conspiracy thriller for fans of Daniel Silva, where religion and politics intersect.

I’ve also done a short video all about my research trip for the book, and how much of the story is based on reality. You can watch it on this page:

Right now, the novella is less than the price of a coffee 🙂

PLUS, to encourage the readers of Budapest to try my main series, Exodus, ARKANE #3 is on sale this week for $2.99

Nightmares are bleeding into her waking world. Children are going missing. To save them, she must overcome her wreck of a personal life and a closet full of skeletons. She doesn’t know if the horrors in the shadows are real…or if she is going mad.

18-year-old Janelle Cohen is an electrician in an underground city. The world above has been swal-lowed by mind-destroying Dust. Her small life changes forever when a dragon attacks her on the way home from work.

Her friends worry that she has the Fever, Dust-induced insanity. As more monsters strike down citizens, they change their minds. A terrifying trip to the surface of the world, the ancient and abandoned Up, deepens the nightmare. With no world left above, she and the other Crows cannot afford to fail…

On Wednesday, July 31st, M.C. Muhlenkamp will publish her newest collection of short stories on Amazon. Please visit http://www.mcmuhlenkamp.com/, the official site of the Markram Battle series where you can find detailed information about the Markram Empire, history, and characters. Today it is my pleasure to participate in the official cover reveal!

Markram_Genesis_coverDescription:

Markram Battles is a serialized collection of short stories.

Life has changed. An alien race of evolved humans with supernatural abilities has taken over our planet, as the most recent annexation of their empire. Earth is now a sector where recruiters, also known as unit leaders, come to conscript female survivors into their combatant regiments—battle divisions intended to fight and die in an arena for the entertainment of the masses. The rules of the Battles are simple. Fight. Win. Or die trying.

Seven, a unit leader trained in the Imperial Army with the sole purpose of fighting in the Battles, refuses to die in his pursuit of freedom. But when Thirteen, his new female recruit, defies the rules, she threatens to destroy everything he has worked so hard to achieve. Thirteen won’t give in. Not to him. Not to the system. Not to anyone. Except in order to live, she must.

These are the stories of the beginning, the stories of them who fight, without any possibility of escape.
