Conquistador’s Blood 1000px

Conquistador’s Blood (Bone Guard 7)

ByE. Chris Ambrose

Stolen gold, Zuni warriors, a legacy poisoned forever!

The blood of conquistadors flows in their veins…

When the patriarch of the clan Casaverde drops dead at home, his last words are Grant Casey’s name—but Grant hasn’t spoken to anyone from that family since his parents died, and the clan shut him out. The lure of the half-siblings he’s never met gets him as far as the New Mexico estate where his father was raised, the one they left from the night of the accident that shattered Grant’s life and blew his future.

Coronado’s treasure may be legend, and half the family’s determined to find it—the other half to bury that legacy and pretend the past never happened. Grant wants nothing from these people, but everybody suddenly wants something from him. His parents’ secrets propel him into the hunt for the lost gold, an adventure from the pueblos of the southwest to the shipwrecks of the Gulf Coast, and beyond.

Four hundred years of blood-stained history obscure the truth about the conquest—the truth his parents died for. All Grant can hope is that it won’t kill him, too.

Sinner’s Lips

Murder is the leading cause of death for pregnant women in America–and Amanda’s sister is about to become a statistic.

When Amanda answers the phone, her sister whispers “Barry Manilow,” a code phrase sending Amanda on a wild drive to save her sister from her bullying spouse. Amanda arrives too late, with her sister already dying, a newborn crying, and a killer stalking her through the woods. Accused of the murder, Amanda takes refuge with Mark Forester, a hunky ex-con weary of fighting to re-gain his dignity. Suspects include a retired mobster, a popular politician, a new gang, and the quilting rival who envied everything her sister had, including her husband.

Mark’s reluctance to get involved dissolves when he opens himself to the passionate heart of this self-titled “Snow Queen,” and she awakens the spirit he buried in prison. Dodging bullets and the law, Amanda searches for the truth of her sister’s death and Mark’s conviction, all the while pretending she can easily let him go. Amanda’s need arouses the superhero Mark longed to be, but coming to her rescue may force him to betray his best friend and send him straight back to prison, never to return.

The Assassin’s Throne smaller

The Assassin’s Throne (Bone Guard 3)

ByE. Chris Ambrose

A Templar betrayal, a mechanized throne and a madman who would be king

The Bone Guard runs afoul of modern knights, ancient Assassins and the self-proclaimed King of Jerusalem, hell-bent on reclaiming his throne. Hired to safeguard a medieval manuscript, Grant and his wingman plunge straight into danger, chasing a killer, a thief, and an old adversary they know as the Phantom. Their client is lying, their objective is missing, and their reputation is on the line—along with their lives—as they hunt for clues in Turkish baths and ruined churches from Istanbul to the Dead Cities of Syria. Modern wars spark ancient rivalries, leaving Grant caught between the man who would be king, and the mystery shrouding his mechanical throne. The Templars are after Grant’s head, and the next target is the woman who ignited his heart. The Bone Guard is on the job and the legend’s about to get real.

3D Box Bone Guard Vol 1-3

The Bone Guard adventures–set 1

ByE. Chris Ambrose

The first three Bone Guard novels, complete! Plus a bonus short story, and a teaser for Bone Guard 4, The Mayan Bust!

Binge the series: If Indiana Jones had served in special forces, it might be something like this!

Or as award-winning, NYT Best-selling author Brendan Dubois put it, “If you thought thrilling tales of archaeological discoveries and conflict began and ended with the Indiana Jones movies, you’d be wrong. In her gripping Bone Guard series — The Mongol’s Coffin and The Nazi Skull — the talented E. Chris Ambrose tells tales not only of action, but of discovery and dedication of those determined to save important relics from our past. Impeccably researched and well-written, this series is highly-recommended.”

When Roger the kitchen boy told everyone he was the king’s bastard and raised an army to overthrow his tyrant father, he never expected to have to live that lie.

In the aftermath of the Demon War, King Agravaine’s rule only became more oppressive. Somebody had to do something! After his own humiliation at the king’s feet, begging to get his mother freed from prison, Roger stepped up with his dangerous tale. Surely he would die in the fighting, but at least his mother, and maybe all of his people, could be free, and his wild story might inspire something greater. His early supporters, Lady Rania, and his scullion friend Caterina—now leaders in his army—promise to keep his secret, if only Roger’s leadership turns out less devastating than his predecessor’s. Now he must navigate the politics of a crown he never meant to wear and bring together peasant and lord to revive the battered kingdom. His attachment to Lady Rania grows even as his lies make it impossible for her to trust him. But the real test is yet to come: how can the usurper Roger Silvertongue face the army backing the king’s true heir?
