A Book and a Chat with Bruce Sarte

Making a welcome return on today’s “A Book and a Chat” is my guest Bruce Sarte.

An accomplished songwriter with two gold records to his credit, Bruce lives just outside of Philadelphia with his wife and three children. In addition to writing, he enjoys baseball, playing guitar, reading, church, cooking and being a dad. Bruce grew up at the Jersey Shore (the picture is at Point Pleasant Beach, where Sands of Time is set) and graduated from Admiral Farragut Academy in Pine Beach, NJ where he first became enthralled with reading and writing. From his early influences Bruce was introduced to and fell in love with Shakespeare, Marlow, Henry James and Nathaniel Hawthorne. In addition to his books, Bruce has written for The Bleacher Report, The Father Life and The Examiner.

Bruce has published the vampire thriller Sands of Time, the paranormal murder mystery Towering Pines Volume One: Room 509, the story of how God selected The Star of Christmas, stories in the horror anthology Bump in the Night 2010, Bump in the Night 2011 and Bump in the Night 2013 horror anthologies; plus the Kindle/Nook only offerings -- the historical mystery of Sweet Nessie, the top selling horror short-story Best Friends Forever about two friends who have been kidnapped by a secretive cult and The Show Must Go On, a story about an old theater and its last gasp of breathe... literally.

The thrilling detective novels, Philadelphia Story (Lance Carter #1) and The Insider's Story (Lance Carter #2) have stormed to the top of the Amazon charts quickly after their release.

We learned during the show that "Sands of Time" is being re-written for a TV film, also about brice's latest book due to be released the end of this month The Kill Commission" which introduces us to a new character in the shape of Tim Rutherford.


About "The Kill Commission"

When Tim Rutherford's daughter is brutally murdered, it opens up a chasm inside of him that can only be filled by one thing -- justice. But, when justice fails his little girl this highly trained federal agent realizes there is only one way to fill the chasm: revenge.

And The Kill Commission is just the group to give it to him.

The Commission is filled with people just like Tim, all have been wronged by the justice system -- and all want their own slice of revenge. And they've recruited Tim to do their dirty work. Tim sets forth doing the Commission's dirty work until he realizes that they aren't what they seem -- and he has to right the wrongs that have been done.

A Book and a Chat with Bruce Sarte



Making a welcome return on today’s “A Book and a Chat” is my guest Bruce Sarte.

Previously on the show Bruce and I discussed his various writings which cover many styles and subjects.

From the vampire thriller “Sands of Time”, and his paranormal murder mystery “Towering Pines Volume One: Room 509” to  the story of how God selected “The Star of Christmas”.


We learned on the last show about his latest venture with which Bruce seems to have found his slot in the literary market.

In “The Philadelphia Story” Bruce introduced the readers to Detective Lance Carter together with his partner, Linc Diesel, travel to the darker side of Philadelphia. 

As one reviewer described the book…

It is like 1946's The Big Sleep was meeting up with a more modern version of Detective Phillip Marlow. It had a flow that, while at times was predictable, was incredibly smooth for the most part.  Sarte does a great job of allowing his readers a glimpse of Philadelphia and its rich history, as well as spinning a tale that is fast paced and right in your face until the end. 

The success of this first book in the Lance Carter series has now been followed by “The Insider’s Story”.

About “The Insider’s Story” (taken from amazon):

An Amazon Hard Boiled Detective Top 20 Bestseller (November 2012)

Lance Carter is bringing back the classic detectives like Spenser, Dick Tracy and Dirty Harry all rolled into one - Kindle Soup Reviews (about Philadelphia Story)

When Lacey Ramsey walks into Lance Carter's office she wants to hire him to get her boyfriend out of trouble. Lance thinks she's nothing more than a girlfriend with an over active imagination... until he learns he is a Philadelphia Police Officer. When he learns he is an elite POINT team member, he is sure he wants nothing to do with this case.

When he learns Lacey's boyfriend is cheating on her and that is why he is ignoring Lacey, Lance thinks case closed.

But when the body count begins to mount he knows this case is far from closed...


With a third book Lance Carter book already underway plus the follow up to
Towering Pines Volume One: Room 509, the name Bruce Sarte looks like one to follow on your book shelves or library.

A Book and a Chat with Bruce A Sarte

Musician and author Bruce A Sarte makes a welcome return to “A Book and a Chat” today. Previously Bruce was on talking about his vampire thriller “Sands of Time”, and paranormal murder mystery series “Towering Pines Volume One: Room 509”. Now he is back with a new string to his bow, one that looks like it’s going bring him even more success, judging by the reviews so far.

Already votes Night Owl Book Reviews TOP PICK for 2012 “The Philadelphia Story” the first book in his new detective series has been described as “like 1946's The Big Sleep was meeting up with a more modern version of Detective Phillip Marlow"

The book introduces us to private detective Lance Carter, and the series is planned to be standalone reading with a cast that you’ll know, as Bruce compared, a bit like the Sherlock Holmes stories.


About The Philadelphia Story:
(Taken from Amazon)

When private detective Lance Carter sipped his cup of coffee while admiring Independence Hall he had no idea where the day’s event would take him. With each sip of the blazingly hot brew his past comes closer and closer pulling him back to one moment in time that he thought was a closed case.

Together with his partner, Linc Diesel, Carter’s well-meaning conscience keeps digging holes that the two of them can’t fill.Who knew that a ten year old girl could bring the full force of Philadelphia’s Asian Mafia down on top of them?

Follow Lance as he roars through the city streets of Philadelphia while he battles the pain of lost love, missed opportunity, good deeds gone wrong and the ultimate battle with the seedy underbelly of Philadelphia!

Author Bruce A. Sarte’s third novel brings fast paced action and thrills! Look for Bruce’s other novels, Sands of Time, Towering Pines Volume One: Room 509 and The Star of Christmas.

This book is I am sure the start of a great run of successes and the reviews are already flooding in.

Readers Favorite stated…


"grabs you from the start and doesn't let you go"..."very well developed characters: both good and bad"...recommended to any lover of detective fiction"!

Following in the shoes of great detectives Lance Carter is I am sure going to prove a huge success.

As one reviewer put it…

I highly recommend Philadelphia Story to those interested in a good detective story, as well as those looking for something to stimulate the imagination. Whether you are new to the genre, or seasoned all the way back to the 1940's and 50's old school detective stories, this one is a must rea
d.

A statement I totally agree with.
