    About this series

    Thriller writer Norm Applegate, author of Into the Basement, introduces us to a new character, Jack Dwyer.

    Shockwave.

    Loner Jack Dwyer.
    Pretty woman Kelly Paul.
    Homegrown terrorists use pipe bombs to kill.
    The cause? They want America back.
    Violence breeds violence.
    Never underestimate a loner!

    Book Description:

    Jack Dwyer is observant. Sitting at Starbucks he watches a van come to a stop. A nervous guy gets out, looks around, seems strange. Dwyer watches him. The guy crosses the street. Dwyer realizes the guy’s staring at a pretty woman, Kelly Paul. Dwyer makes eye contact with her. Dwyer looks left, right, reacts, moves fast, pushes her down, saves her but the bomb explodes. People are killed. She goes missing and Dwyer is the suspect.

    Dwyer can’t forget her. Doesn’t understand why she’s missing. He’s a loner, ex-military, a psychologist and he has seen death. He’s wildly attracted to the pretty woman and he goes after her.

    Beau Redell, and a group of sadistic followers, is the problem. Kelly Paul has been taken, abducted, terrorized. But Dwyer finds himself alone and a violent conclusion is inevitable...

    I live in Sarasota, and I write thrillers, horror and paranormal books.I’m also a Mac Fanatic. Smooth Jazz enthusiast. Drummer. Former hypnotist and Horror Movie Fan.Norman Applegate is an author and consultant, with a growing body of work to his credit. Born in Glasgow Scotland, growing up in Toronto Canada and now residing in Sarasota Florida with his wife Cheryl, Norm Applegate works and travels for an international consulting company, then occasionally scares the “heck” out of his family with his thoughts and writings.Bibliography:Novels* (2012) The Prisoner* (2011) Shockwave• (2011) First to Die* (2011) Sadist (Turkish translation of Into The Basement)• (2009) Blood Bar, a vampire tale• (2007) Into the Spell• (2006) Into the BasementShort Story• (2011) JumpersAnthologies:• (2008) From the ShadowsScreenplays:• (20010) Grotto• (2009) Into the Basement (co-writer Nicholas Grabowsky)Norm’s writing began while travelling through New Zealand and Australia as a Hypno-therapist with colorful letters to his family of his tales as a hypnotist and the weirdness it attracts.His early years in Toronto were filled with aspirations of the 60’s Yorkville music scene, and as a drummer in numerous bands led to a short lived career playing the bars and clubs in the Toronto area. The band Photograph, signed to a recording studio, made some noise on the coast to coast CBC radio show, the Entertainers. In 1973 the band worked with Canadian artist & producer Tony Kosinec, (All Things Come From God), and after legal issues strangled them into submission, they went their separate ways. The band members were George Szabo and Stan Meissner, (Stan later wrote for Céline Dion, LeeAnn Womack, Eddie Money, Rita Coolidge, BJ Thomas, Ben Orr (The Cars), Triumph and Toronto). The life of drugs, sex and rock and roll were over, sad but true.After a few years of travel, he had the bug, and entered the world of management consulting to become a road warrior, and is now a 2 million miler with Delta. Away from home and with the desire to write a novel it began. His first book, “Into the Basement,” is a raw, dark thriller, described as "juicy." His second novel of the Kim Bennett series, “Into the Spell,” explores the horror of a copy-cat Son of Sam killer and hypnosis.Early 2008, Norm contributed with a short story called “Jumpers,” into the horror anthology “From the Shadows.”In 2009, Norm developed the screenplay for his novel “Into the Basement,” with Nicholas Grabowsky and director J. L. Botelho of Triad Pictures.In 2010 he released, Blood Bar, a vampire tale and wrote the screenplay for a short horror film, Grotto.
