TAMPA, Fla. - eTradeWire -- Down & Out Books is pleased to announce that POLITICAL ALLIANCES, a Florida Thriller by G. Miki Hayden, has been published on April 21, 2025 in trade paperback and ebook formats.

About POLITICAL ALLIANCES …

An old woman admits a young man into her house. He's someone she knows and trusts, but her confidence in him isn't justified.

South Miami horticulturist/journalist Mara Wayne's grandmother has passed away quite suddenly, leaving the family farm to a group called the Children of Jordan. The loss of the property has surprised and upset Mara as the land had always been promised to her.

Mara vows to find out more about the oddball religious cult while on another mission to help a young doctor unhappily involved in an improper kidney harvesting. Then someone stalking her tries to shoot Mara as she strolls through the Everglades.

Never a dull moment in this fast-paced Florida suspense by the author of Dry Bones, a police procedural from Down & Out Books.
