WILDER FLUSS von Cheryl Kaye Tardif - Jetzt zum Kennenlern-Preis für nur 1,99 €! Nur für kurze Zeit!

Nach dem Bestseller DES NEBELS KINDER ist WILDER FLUSS die zweite deutschsprachige Romanveröffentlichung der kanadischen Erfolgsautorin Cheryl Kaye Tardif.

Del dachte, dass ihr Vater schon lange tot war. Doch jemand aus ihrer Vergangenheit behauptet etwas anderes. Jetzt ist sie mit einer Gruppe ihr nahezu fremder Menschen auf einer lebensgefährlichen Mission …

Vor sieben Jahren verschwanden Del Hawthornes Vater und drei seiner Freunde in der Nähe des Nahanni River und wurden für tot erklärt. Der South Nahanni River in den kanadischen Northwest Territories ist bekannt für seine Geschichten um mysteriöse Todesfälle, kopflose Leichen und Entführungen. Del ist schockiert, als ihr einer der vermissten Männer an der Universität begegnet; gealtert zwar und kaum wiederzuerkennen, aber äußerst lebendig. Was der Mann ihr sagt, scheint undenkbar: Auch ihr Vater ist noch am Leben!

Mit einer Gruppe von Freiwilligen fährt Del zum Nahanni River, um ihren Vater zu retten. Dort deckt sie eine Verschwörung unvorstellbaren Grauens auf, die uns alle zu vernichten droht. Wird die Menschheit für die Suche nach dem ewigen Leben geopfert werden?

Ab welchem Punkt werden wir zu … Gott?

THE RIVER gets a new look

My bestselling techno-thriller, THE RIVER, will be released next month in a second edition trade paperback, priced to be more affordable than the older version. Nothing inside has changed much; it's the same action-packed story, same mystery, same chills and thrills. But as you'll see, the front cover now has a more ominous feel to it and there's a new publisher.

In 2005, the original cover was designed. The book retailed for $25.99 and was then reduced to $22.50. But to be honest, that price has bothered me and I've been trying to find a way to bring THE RIVER to everyone--with a lower price. And now I have!

In June 2011, the second edition trade paperback of THE RIVER will retail for only $9.99 on Amazon. Over the following month or two, the new edition will be distributed to other retailers.

Seven years ago, Del Hawthorne’s father and three of his friends disappeared near the Nahanni River and were presumed dead. When one of the missing men stumbles onto the University grounds, alive but barely recognizable and aging before her eyes, Del is shocked. Especially when the man tells her something inconceivable. Her father is still alive!

Check out the following covers:

Last minute gift ideas: The River by Cheryl Kaye Tardif

The River, a fast-paced thriller, is the story of a woman's search for her father in the mysterious wilderness of the Nahanni River in Canada's Northwest Territories.

What she finds is a secret underground river and a deadly world of nanobots and painful serums.

How far have we gone with our technologies before we've gone too far? And at what point have we become God?

Nahanni River Watershed Needs Protection

If you've read my novel The River, you'll know a bit about the history of the Nahanni River area. It is home to many First Nations people, including the Dene, who are mentioned in my novel. The area has often been referred to as the "Bermuda Triangle of Canada". There have been reports of people who've gone missing, and the McLeod brothers who went there in search of gold were found decapitated--hence, Headless Valley.

This entire area is rich with history and stories. It is a vast wilderness in Canada's Northwest Territories, bordering close to the Yukon. It is beautiful, natural, free from major polution and one of Canada's 'national treasures', and it needs protection from mining and more.

The following is printed here with permission from Neil Hartling at Canadian River Expeditions & Nahanni River Adventures:

NAHANNI RIVER WATERSHED PROTECTION – THE JOB IS
NOT FINISHED!

For years we have been campaigning for the expansion of Nahanni National Park to include the entire watershed. Research has shown that this is critical if the Park is to fulfill its mandate of protecting the species that move across its’ borders. The local First Nations want this protection to secure their traditional subsistence resources.

Last August we reported that Prime Minister Harper had announced the withdrawal pf the Nahanni watershed from mineral claim staking. This was an important step in expanding the boundary to protect the entire watershed. Unfortunately the final step of deciding on new boundaries and expanding the park has not been completed.

Now with a federal election, we have a chance to get our candidates to commit to getting this done!

Please take a moment and ask the Party Leaders and all your candidates if they will complete the process by expanding the boundary to that agreed upon by the Deh Cho First Nations.

Thank you, Neil for allowing me to spread the word about this. The Nahanni River is not just the setting for my novel The River; it is part of our Canadian heritage. Let's keep it so.

Cheryl Kaye Tardif - a 3-Time Amazon.com Bestseller

I now have 3 bestselling novels on Amazon.com! How thrilling!

After the recent success of my latest novel Whale Song, and after achieving bestsellers' status on Amazon.com and Amazon.ca with the title that I call "my heart book", I am happy to announce that both Divine Intervention and The River have made the list.

Divine Intervention followed soon after, making Amazon.com's bestseller list in the Canadian Detectives category under Mystery and Thrillers bestsellers. Divine Intervention is a paranormal suspense that pits a group of covert psychic government agents against a deadly serial arsonist, sending them across BC, from Vancouver to Kelowna, Penticton and Victoria. Divine Intervention is popular with fans of J.D. Robb aka Nora Roberts, Kay Hooper and Allison Brennan.

And more recently, The River, a conspiracy thriller that explores stem cell research and the search for the 'fountain of youth', made Amazon.com's list under...of all categories...Multiple Sclerosis. The River takes place in an area of Canada that has been referred to as "the Bermuda Triangle of Canada"--the Nahanni River area of the Northwest Territories. In The River, Del Hawthorne takes a group of near strangers up north to search for her father who went missing in the area and was presumed dead--seven years earlier. But something leads Del to believe that maybe her father isn't dead after all. For anyone dealing with multiple sclerosis, as does a special friend to whom this book is dedicated to and also one of the characters in the novel, I hope you find The River a journey of hope.

Divine Intervention and The River are being sold together in Amazon's 'Better Together' program.

The regular retail price of each is $22.50 US.

Buy together now for only $30.60 US for both novels (almost a $15.00 savings!).
