Mark Donovan Announces the Release of “Waterkill”

“Waterkill” Weaves Nanoscience and Cult Religious Terrorism into a Major Threat to Western Civilization

An Action Packed Cerebral Thriller that Spans Three Continents, “Waterkill” is the second book in the Dave Henson Series


Derry, New Hampshire - November 17, 2015 – Mark Donovan announced today the release of his second novel, “Waterkill”, a fast paced 300 page thriller.  

With the mysterious outbreak of a deadly disease in a Yemeni village, followed by an increase in terrorist chatter after the crash of a small airplane in eastern Alaska, CEO Dr. Dave Henson and colleague Ron Blackwell of NSurv Inc. are tapped by the Department of Homeland Security to locate the aircraft wreckage and its suspected deadly contents.

While Henson and Blackwell are in the eastern mountains of Alaska helping the U.S. Border Patrol locate the missing aircraft and its contents, Henson’s wife, internationally known journalist Dana Cogswell, goes missing while covering another sudden and suspicious epidemic in a small town in Germany.

Henson races from Alaska to Germany to rescue Dana and ends up on a quest to the Middle East to find her. Along the way he learns of a shocking betrayal of friendship and that the path to his wife ultimately leads to the terrorist leader behind the deadly outbreaks.

“As the world focuses its concerns on the threat of nuclear attacks from rogue nations and terrorist organizations, other types of technology provide just as real a danger to the public,” says author Mark Donovan. “Waterkill explores the field of Nanoscience and how it could be exploited to enable the synthetic creation of common diseases for conducting pandemic bioterrorism attacks.”

“Waterkill is a thriller that will keep you on the edge from the beginning until the end. Since I got emerged into this book from the first paragraphs, it gets 5 stars out of 5.” - Ionela Hamz

"Waterkill" can be purchased in paperback for $13.99 and eBook formats for $3.99 through Amazon and Barnes and Noble.

Review copies available to qualified reviewers and booksellers.

Political Techno-Thriller book "Nano Surveillance" Free on Amazon Kindle Today

My first novel "Nano Surveillance" is free on Amazon.com in Kindle format for today and tomorrow only. 
  
"Nano Surveillance" is a political techno-thriller that gives a chilling view of where spying technology is headed in the not so distant future.
  
With over 30 years in high tech as an electrical engineer, and extensive knowledge in various sensor technologies, I decided to write "Nano Surveillance" to bring awareness of where "big brother" is headed in our country and around the world. 
  
"Nano Surveillance" is a 386 page fictional political techno-thriller centered around Washington, D.C., the Caribbean, and the northwest part of the United States. It is action packed and a page turner, so says some of the book reviewers.

Book review of "Nano Surveillance" - *****5 Stars ***** by Robin Lee

"Excellent......."Orwellian"......Thriller.........,

Author, Mark Donovan's debut full length novel is excellent..It's, about power, control, corrupt government and corporations..It's a slow building suspense, espionage, nano/tech thriller..This story goes way beyond our days of "Big Brother" is watching..Good character development and two story plot lines that seamlesly intertwine..What I especially liked was that each chapter heading had the date, coast and timeline, which as you continue reading along makes you start fearing a countdown to the chaotic, explosive ending...The novel was fascinating yet shocking at the same time..I read for entertainment value and there were no typos in my copy..

Even though this novel is fiction, it's very thought provoking..Nano-Technology is very real and being experimented with today..In our society we already have camera surveillance everywhere, wire tapping and the very controversial "Drones"..So, who really knows anymore what our society is becoming and who you can really trust...This is what this thriller will show you..

Private Corporation NSURV is 3 years ahead of even the military govenment with nano/tech...Creating new prototypes and nano-dust which could be used for good or very deadly if fell into the wrong hands..Everbody is after this covert group...In the mean time in Washington, the President announces the "Transportation Movement Act" which he is trying to get passed in Congress and sell it to the people of U.S....So, he can get cars off the road with destructive carbon emissions because he is concerned over "global warming"...But is it really about global warming or dark hidden secret, backroom deals meant for total control over the United States...Can Dave Henson, his covert group of scientists and operatives expose the truth in time.....

This is no longer the "American Dream", but living the "American Nightmare"......
