Bay Area Author Nicolas Thakar Publishes Be Safe Brother

May 10, 2012 - PRLog -- Be Safe Brother, a book by Alamo author Nicolas Thakar has been published as a multi-format ebook by Smashwords and can now be purchased at Amazon, BN.com and other major online retailers.

The novel follows Stuart Lorenz, who must sort through family mysteries, decades-old conflicts and WWII letters as he searches through stunning National Park landscapes for his father’s “Holy Grail.”  It can be downloaded for Kindle, Nook, iPad and most other other e-readers.

“It started as an homage to National Parks,” Thakar said.  “When I was able to weave in the mysteries of the father’s past, I knew I had a story that readers could relate to and characters they would want to root for.”  Thakar added, “I’ve had excellent feedback so far, which makes it even more exciting that my book is now so widely available.”

The story opens several days after the patriarch’s death, when his family is given instructions to resolve some unfinished business, but their ultimate goal is anything but clear.  As they travel from one iconic location to another, the family learns more and more about the patriarch’s past that he had not revealed during his lifetime.

Be Safe Brother is priced at only $4.99.  To find links to sample or purchase Be Safe Brother, visit http://www.nicolasthakar.com.
