Squad 7 is an elite anti-terrorism team comprising FBI agents and Chicago cops. Mike Buck, a veteran FBI Special Agent is the driving force of the Squad 7 team. He's calm and efficient, but his past weighs heavily on him-wartime guilt, a failed marriage, and his partner's recent on-duty death. As the new millennium begins, Buck's investigation of the death of an old Vietnamese immigrant, a simple, seemingly innocent man, unravels a twenty-five-year-old mystery with international political implications. The local Vietnamese community is closed to outsiders, but an opening is created when a Vietnamese American detective and former "boat person", Do Tron, from the Chicago Police Department, is added to the Squad. Together they battle local gangs, corrupt politicians, and even other elements of the FBI. Buck creates more tension by becoming romantically involved with the daughter of one of the Vietnamese leaders in Chicago. As Buck delves deeper into the case, he realizes he's up against something greater than he anticipated. He navigates a complex web of corruption, political intrigue, and violence across continents. Along the way, he uncovers the truth about his past and his role in the Vietnam War. The clock is ticking, and the stakes are high as Buck and Tron race to stop a dangerous plot threatening global security. But as the investigation intensifies, Buck's personal and professional lives collide, putting everything he's worked for at risk.

Care for a tour through the landscapes of a woman's heart? Here's your ride. Deborah Fruchey's "Shattered Windows" presents us with a chorus of women's voices: some hers, some imagined, some in-between. These short pieces are a trek through many hearts, each unique and somehow so familiar. One page captures keenly drawn despair...while the next is charged with hope...Then we turn the page for more. Fruchey observes each without judgment and with empathy aplenty. Each scenario, each emotion, each person here feels true and painted with a knowing eye. -Richard Loranger, author of "Mammal" and "Unit of Agency"

Metamorphic Door is a shapeshifting landscape. To read this collection is to tour the meat cave, the hadal zone, the summer air strung with mayflies. These are poems of noticing, full of insects, birds, and rocks; but also of viral videos, message-bearing geese, and the rat galactic. Supinka writes with a lantern curiosity, casting light everywhere her poetic gaze goes and these beams are further illuminated by illustrations which accompany the poems, as well as the combination of the two: poetry comics, which are featured throughout the book. Step through the eponymous door, roam its organic trappings, and feel your ecological and temporal attention transformed.

from the author: The book is putting my current life in perspective beginning with Covid/Trump/Ukraine war times, looking back through relationships in my life, then forward in metaphysical/philosophical ways to my inevitable end, a sort of dance with death. Full Moon Midnight means it's late and time is running out but there's still light and an awesome beauty in the cycle of life."There is a rare delicacy, a fragility, a soft tenderness in the poemsof Belinda Subraman's FULL MOON MIDNIGHT that is seldomseen in a book of verse. Each poem is a translucent pale yellowpetal on a Texas rainbow cactus flower. But don't be fooled. Belinda Subraman's poems are also lightning and thunder, a storm of words filled with suffering, ecstasy, and release. FULL MOON MIDNIGHT faces the brutal and the mundane and transmutes all the pain into a new book of revelation. FULL MOON MIDNIGHT is an unanticipated but so welcome master work from the brilliant Belinda Subraman."-Ron Whitehead, U.S. National Lifetime Beat Poet Laureate"In this new collection of poems, you can sense how Belinda has evolved and conquered an even more powerful expression. At times her poems are like paintings or photos. Other poems give life to her skills of playing with words, playing with rhythm and rhymes in a skillful manner, yet constantly with something urgent to tell the reader. Some poems are timeless while others delve into the present with its dark and foreboding clouds of war and massmurder. Others are very personal and intense where time and decay have their say. Her poems can be about being alone in the woods as a small child or about a bitter mother being hard on her. But there is no bitterness here, the joy of nature shines through. Although death, as it should, plays its part."-Bengt O Björklund, Swedish Lifetime Beat Poet Laureate"Reading FULL MOON MIDNIGHT by Belinda Subraman is like going on a vast, exciting journey through everything, each topic fully explored by an observant, discerning poet seeking deeper awareness, deeper consciousness, better answers. No subject is left out in this wide-ranging collection. We find insomnia, writer's block, war, mass shooters, activism, abusive mothers, false religion, the earth, meditation, zen, science, death, loss, eternity. Subraman is activist, lover, daughter, wife, historian, aesthetic observer/philosopher. Each poem is a pearl, finely created as in this excerpt from one of my many favorites, Infinite Mollusk: "A chambered nautilus/breathing water/exhibits mastery of life/tentacles sensing/fingers in the waves/pointing nowhere//everywhere//the inclusive mind/is love in action//the mind creates the abyss/the heart crosses it." And again in The Answer: " I see it now in everything I do -/A hazy hint of enlightenment -/In my handwriting, my painting,/The fizzy vibrations -/Atoms dancing infinitely/In the all encompassing unnameable bliss." I am so impressed with this beautiful work by a poet dedicated to words, knowledge, deep understanding. This is the kind of book that makes me realize how much I love poetry. I found myself reading each poem again and again, hoping that, with the poet, I would find some answers. What better experience from a book of poems?" -Susan Ward Mickelberry, author of And Blackberries Grew Wild
