Three Dramatic Action Screenplays—Three Entertaining Thrill Rides!
There are good reasons why compelling action stories are popular. They give us the catharsis of adrenaline-pumping risk and danger, the rush of edge-of-your seat suspense, and a welcome escape from the sameness of everyday life. These three stories provide all that and more—and even better, they’re given to you in the wonderfully readable format of screenplays. As you read, you have the chance to be the director as well as the audience—and you’ll appreciate the format, easy on the eyes compared to prose fiction. Visions in the Tunnel exposes the dead-end life of an aging civil engineer, Calvin Sweatt, whose life is changed by a yoga studio that isn’t what it seems. As he faces adventures he couldn’t have imagined, he has to decide what his values really are…and whether he’s going to live by them. Under the Double Eagle introduces you to the fascinating and dangerous world of the rare coin trade, focusing on a coveted 1933 solid gold Double Eagle coin…a coin that should have been destroyed when President Roosevelt took America off the gold standard. Entrepreneur Leon Hambright and his sexy girlfriend April chase the coin right into the net of Marc Pinion, owner of a chain of shady Asian massage parlors, who will stop at nothing to get what he wants—will Leon and April also sacrifice the people they love to get the fabulous coin, or will they challenge Marc on his own territory? Crimson in the Cowee introduces Ashwin Kingfisher, a young Cherokee man who is at odds with his heritage. Although he is a physicist, he is working temporarily at a tourist campground and ruby mine. Fate has a few surprises in store for Ashwin, including his growing interest in Riley, the daughter of the campground owners. But an even bigger surprise comes in the form of Baxter Earl, the ruthless owner of the adjacent property. To survive Baxter’s game, Ashwin must learn more about himself—and he finds that his life has deep roots in the past. Will he accept the role that destiny has given him, or turn away again from his birthright?
