Ebook "Canals" Published, Set In Modesto, California

March 15, 2011 - PRLog -- Author Everett Powers has released his first novel, "Canals", on Amazon, iBook, Nook, and other popular ebook sites. The price is 99 cents.

Canals is set in Modesto, California, a large farming community in central California. Prior to irrigation, the Modesto area was dry-farmed. Irrigation canals have criss-crossed the Valley for 100 years. Once out in the country, because of growth they now run through most developments.

The premise of Canals is:

There's a monster living in the canals flowing through and around Modesto, hunting its preferred prey: humans. Detective Daniel Lawless and Deputy Sandra Jensen must find and kill it before it spawns and disperses, or Earth is doomed. Using psychic powers they didn't know they had, they battle the monster and learn—remember—that they and it are ancient enemies.
