Attorney Turned Author “Goes International” at Book Expo America, NY 2009

July 24, 2009 - PRLog -- “At the Book Expo in New York, representatives from the London office of The World Media Right’s Agency expressed interest in acquiring the Asian publication rights to several of our front and back listed titles, including Ms. Kiner’s novels,” says AEG Spokesperson and Director of PR, Miranda Spigener. “Negotiations since then have produced a signed contract calling for translations in Cantonese, Mandarin, and Japanese.  The novels and novelist will be featured at the Beijing Book Expo in September and the Frankfurt Book Expo in October.  This is exciting news and groundbreaking for a young publishing company and author.”

“Kiner's novel is a taut, rollercoaster of a ride from New York to Palm Beach to Washington, D.C. and Asia. The plot is expertly woven, the characters persuasive, and the dialogue snappy and spot on. Look out--Susanna Sloane is here to stay."— Bruce Pusch - Reviewer, Amazon.com

“Finally, someone has written about a 'woman of a certain age' as smart, street-savvy and SEXY. Women in their 50's and 60's should eat this up.” – Lisa Monteverde – Reviewer, Amazon.com
And it is no wonder that Pusch calls her the next John Grisham; a power play by play carefully scripted story combining elements of corporate corruption, greed, intrigue, romance and international espionage make an entertaining read during these times where fiction meets reality.  All told stylishly well with a tough and striking feminine protagonist.  In this male dominated genre, Kiner could very well be the female James Patterson.

The Hong Kong Connection begins with Securities attorney Susanna Sloane, widowed after thirty years and now a divorcee, and is seeing Ray Atherley, a Wall Street entrepreneur.  Henry Wu, longtime acquaintance and Chinese government official, invites her to visit Hong Kong to address its bar association and stock exchange.  He asks her to help the Chinese government block drug traffickers’ use of the financial system to launder drug money. While in Hong Kong she experiences bizarre and unnerving episodes that she refers to as “flashes.”  They continue after she returns to New York.  With the help of a hypnotherapist to determine their origin, she discovers that Wu had drugged and raped her, and had taken nude photos of her.

The sophomore in the series, Death Spiral, Sloane novel continues Sloane’s adventures with a punch—exhilarating action that spans three continents and a plotline that keeps the reader guessing what lies ahead with the vivacious, sexy, lady that fans just can’t get enough of…more shady political coups, mayhem and murder follow—it’s all in a day’s work for this irrepressible woman and the same for Sloane’s creator S.G. Kiner.  The Susanna Sloane series can be purchased at most online retailers or direct from AEG.

S.G. Kiner is a fulltime writer.  Ms. Kiner was an executive in advertising and a former model.  She currently ghostwrites for securities attorneys and consults and testifies as an expert witness in securities arbitration hearings.  She has published numerous professional articles and journals in addition to her debut novel, "The Hong Kong Connection." She has two children and three grandchildren and lives with her husband in Palm Beach, Florida.
