AK22-37. Stacy Lee, Never in a Billion


An Authors Kiss with Sara Troy and her guest Stacy Lee, on air from September 6th

 Stacy Lee talks about the latest books in her Amazon best-selling Historical Fiction series, set on the beautiful and enchanting New England beaches of York, Maine
The Nubble Light series is set on the beautiful and enchanting New England Beaches of York, Maine. Each of these novels are separate stories that appeal to readers of all ages, especially women. Young adults to seniors have confessed to falling in love with characters that will feel like friends in these quick reads.

Each novel consists of a female main character who has a personal obstacle to overcome. Some learn about the importance of second chances, while others are challenged to love without hesitation. In each story, someone returns to her hometown. Whatever the lesson may be, they learn from the experience of other characters, as the action toggles between multiple time periods, mainly the 1940s, 1950s, 1960s, and present day.

“Written like a movie, these books offer entertaining, unique twists in a warm and fuzzy Hallmark-type way,” says the author. “There is a constant action in these quick, easy reads that zero in on human connection and how people bond with one another.”

There are currently three books in the series with the fourth book on the way this August. These stories take readers on a journey of big emotions and leave them satisfied and happy for the characters, while also leaving them wanting more! They can’t wait to pick up the next book to check in on their old friends and meet new ones.

AK22-37. Charles Christian the Urban Fantasist


An Authors Kiss with Sara Troy and her guest Charles Christian, on air from September 6th

If you are fascinated by the weird, the unexplained and the bizarre, join author Charles Christian on a fascinating road trip around what he calls the Wold Newton Triangle, where rather odd events have occurred, unmatched anywhere else in Britain. He will talk about werewolves, zombies, vampires, green skinned fairy folk, headless ghosts, screaming skulls, ancient warlords, a Parkin-eating dragon, and so so much more!

?Descended from a motley crew of smugglers and witches (*), Christian was born a chime-child with a caul and grew up in a haunted medieval house by the harbourside in the Yorkshire seaside town of Scarborough. According to folklore a caul-shrouded chime-child can’t drown at sea but can see and talk to faerie folk and also has protection against spells cast by malevolent sorcerers. And yes, he was once commissioned to go on a werewolf hunt on the night of a full moon by a newspaper. Spoiler alert: he didn’t find one. (Or it didn’t find him.)

He is the author of the best-selling ebook Writing Genre Fiction – Creating Imaginary Worlds: The 12 Rules while his latest book is Shuckland: Weird tales, ghosts, folklore and legends from East Anglia’s Waveney valley. He also scripts and presents the Weird Tales Show videos on YouTube and for four-and-a-half years ran the Weird Tales Radio Show. And, yes a UK national newspaper once really did commission him to go on a werewolf hunt on the night of a full Moon. Spoiler alert: he didn’t find one. (Or it didn’t find him!)

Charles Christian is an English barrister and Reuters correspondent turned writer, podcaster, award-winning tech journalist, and sometime werewolf hunter. He now writes, talks and makes videos mainly about folklore, urban myths, history, and the weird. And yes, an English Fleet Street newspaper once did commission him to go on a werewolf hunt on the night of a full Moon. Spoiler alert: he didn’t find one. Or the werewolf didn’t find him! He was born a ‘chime child’ with a caul so, according to legend, cannot drown at sea but can see and talk to ghosts and fairy folk without fear of coming to harm – allegedly!

Skeptic or Believer? Does Charles Christian personally believe in ghosts, the weird and the paranormal? His answer is the same as the celebrated ghost and supernatural horror writer M. R. James gave in the preface to a collection of his short stories about 100 years ago: “I am prepared to consider the evidence and accept it if it satisfies me.”


He is the author of “A travel guide to Yorkshire’s Weird Wolds: The Mysterious Wold Newton Triangle” and “Saints & Sinners in Dark Age England”. His latest book is “Shuckland: Weird tales, ghosts, folklore and legends from East Anglia’s Waveney valley” – volume one of a new haunted landscapes series – and he is currently writing an almanac of real witches and sorcerers, along with other practitioners of magic – black and white, from earliest times through until the modern era.

AK22-26. China Hand by Scott Spacek


An Authors Kiss with Sara Troy and her guest Scott Spacek, on air from June 28th

A Thriller By Scott Spacek

Scott Spacek, author of China Hand. Originally from Cleveland, Scott Spacek has lived in China for most of the last two decades, working as a technology executive and advisor to leading corporations and governmental organizations. He attended Harvard University and speaks Mandarin Chinese. Teaching at an elite university in Beijing after college provided revealing details for CHINA HAND, his first novel.

INSPIRED BY ACTUAL EVENTS: When a high-ranking Chinese general wants to defect to the US, the CIA tries to recruit a recent Harvard grad teaching at a Beijing university to exfiltrate the man’s daughter—a treacherous operation that could shape the balance of power for decades.

The whole debacle was classified and buried. Until now.

It’s 1998, and China’s political and military leaders are torn by ideological divisions. Amid these seething rivalries, Andrew Callahan arrives in Beijing fresh out of Harvard, planning to spend an adventurous year studying Mandarin and teaching at the renowned International Affairs University. The IAU is known as a training ground for diplomats and spies. But Andrew has no idea that his budding relationship with the attractive and self-assured dean’s assistant, Lily Jiang, will also entangle him in a conspiratorial web of worldwide proportions.

A CIA officer approaches Andrew and informs him that Lily’s father is a top Chinese general caught in a power struggle. The general wants to defect but won’t do so without his wife and daughter. Even more shocking is that the Agency needs Andrew’s assistance for Lily to evade round-the-clock surveillance and escape to the US.

If Andrew agrees, he’ll face lethal odds against China’s ruthless security services to help pull off one of the greatest intelligence coups in American history. If he refuses, it could cost Lily and her family their lives.

Set against the backdrop of a beautiful culture at a turbulent time, China Hand is the story of a reluctant spy and a mission whose deadly consequences continue to reverberate today.
