If you are a fan of the X-Files, you will love this new agent, Trace Newater. He brings levity to the world of the supernatural, so check out book number 1 in this new ongoing FBI series.

There’s something about a feud... real or imagined, that burrows deep into the bones of a story. It doesn’t end when the last shot is fired or the last body is buried. Feuds linger. They echo. They learn how to wait. What begins as blood and pride often becomes something stranger over time, twisting justice, memory, and truth into shapes that no longer obey the rules of history.

To Finish a Feud is not just the first installment in the Trace Newater series... it is a time-fractured, mystery-layered descent into a conflict that refuses to stay in the past. What starts as an old Kentucky blood feud soon reveals itself as something far more unsettling... a legacy that moves through generations, leaving behind unanswered questions, impossible coincidences, and traces of events that shouldn’t be able to touch one another at all.

Set against the violent origins of 1882 and propelled forward by a modern-day FBI agent with a talent for asking the wrong questions or perhaps the right ones at exactly the wrong moment... the story weaves history, suspense, and quiet techno-conspiracy with forces that defy easy explanation. From a single gunshot near a courthouse to unexplained anomalies buried in forgotten records, from vanished men to artifacts that seem out of place in their own time, the past begins to press back.

At the center of it all is Trace Newater, a man driven less by answers than by patterns. As he digs into a cold case that should have stayed buried, Trace uncovers more than grudges and missing persons. He encounters distortions of time, of causality, of legacy, that suggest some stories don’t simply survive history… they bleed through it. What has been dismissed as coincidence, superstition, or legend may instead be evidence of something unfinished.

So, whether you’re here for the slow burn of history, the momentum of a present-day investigation, or the unsettling sense that time itself may be an unreliable witness... welcome. The feud isn’t finished yet.

About the author:

M. Redding is a writer who lives in the Phoenix area with his wife, Lee. He is a proud Arizona transplant, and originally grew up in the Detroit area but headed west to attend Arizona State University, where he studied Communication and became a lifelong Sun Devil fan. He’s called Arizona home for over 30 years and has no plans of trading the desert sunsets for snow shovels anytime soon.

A lifelong reader, Redding developed a love for writing somewhere between raising kids, working full-time, and wondering if there would ever be a quiet moment. Now that his children are grown, he finally has time to pursue the passion he's carried all along—telling stories. He writes with the hope that readers will laugh a little, think a bit, and maybe even stay up past their bedtime to finish just one more chapter.

New Book Release: Gold Storm Rising - by M. Redding

Find it on Amazon HERE

 

Some stories begin with discovery.

This one begins with a scream that no one can hear.

Gold Storm Rising is a science-fiction thriller forged in grief and driven by vengeance. Beyond the warships, secret technologies, and alien threats lies a far more dangerous force... what happens when a human being survives something they were never meant to survive.

The first contact with the enemy does not bring wonder. It brings annihilation. Ships vanish. Families are ripped apart in moments. Those left behind are forced to live with memories that never soften and questions that will never be answered. Survival becomes a curse... a reminder that the universe did not care who it destroyed.

This is not a story about hope saving the day. It is about obsession taking hold. About grief that refuses to heal and instead sharpens into purpose. The characters in these pages are not chasing glory or peace. They are chasing accountability... no matter the cost.

Revenge is not clean. It corrodes judgment, twists morality, and demands sacrifice from everyone it touches. As humanity races to understand an enemy that hides in the shadows of space, the line between defense and retaliation dissolves. Advanced stealth systems, covert missions, and brutal confrontations collide with raw human fury.

The darkness of space mirrors the darkness within those who choose to fight back. Every step forward pulls them further from who they once were. But turning back is no longer an option.

Gold Storm Rising delivers:

• Unflinching first-contact warfare
• A protagonist driven by loss, not heroism
• High-stakes space combat and covert technology
• A relentless descent into vengeance

This is science fiction without comfort ... where survival is only the beginning, and justice is written in fire.

If you’re drawn to darker military sci-fi, morally fractured heroes, and stories that ask how far humanity will go once everything worth protecting is already gone, this book is waiting for you.

Open it.

The Gold Storm does not forgive.
