Don’t Miss the MOST TIMELY Speculative Fiction Novel of 2018 From NYT Bestselling Author Andra Watkins…

IS THIS MAN THE WORST SCOUNDREL AMERICA EVER PRODUCED? 

I Am Number 13 (November 13, 2018, Word Hermit Press LLC) breathes new life into the actions of America’s most forgotten villain who:

  • conspired with a foreign enemy to influence our country’s policies;
  • took money from a foreign enemy to sell our secrets;
  • ordered hits on multiple individuals in mob-like ways;
  • wrote badly to proclaim his innocence;
  • generated god-like allegiance from his loyalists.

On November 13, 2018, New York Times bestselling author Andra Watkins releases I Am Number 13 [Word Hermit Press LLC], an engrossing speculative fiction novel that provides a new take on government corruption, immigration, refugees, and the man known as ‘the biggest scoundrel America ever produced.’

In I Am Number 13, our villain reappears 150 years after his mysterious death to lead the mission to overthrow the Nicaraguan Sandinistas. Stuck in an in-between, timeless place called “Nowhere” – where people whose deaths are unresolved find themselves resurrected under the guidance of a “Nowhere” steward – James Wilkinson has one assignment: help a living soul navigate a life-changing crossroad. Failure dooms him to a fate worse than death – erased from history’s timeline, forgotten forever.

Meanwhile, Emmaline Cagney’s father dies on her graduation day. She foregoes college and heads to Honduras to volunteer with Nicaraguan refugees. It’s 1986. The Sandinista-Contra war rages in the jungles all around her. But when General James Wilkinson reenters her life during a hurricane, can she trust him? Or should she flee?

As they fight to keep refugees safe and American involvement with the Contras secret, Em and Wilkinson careen toward a showdown that outstrips space and time. Nothing Em knew about herself is true. Plus, she must confront the one person she never wanted to see again: her craven mother. Will Emmaline outwit the two people who peddled her childhood innocence before she runs out of time?

I Am Number 13 is the third book in the Nowhere Series, a speculative blend of riveting suspense, forgotten history, and a dash of paranormal fiction.

Action-packed, deeply original, and sweeping in scope, I Am Number 13 will appeal to history buffs, feminists, and lovers of great storytelling. Watkins proves she is a force in contemporary fiction.
