In his second book Rivers treats us to three very different types of thrillers, reminiscent in style to the spellbinding Saturday afternoon matinees and late night horror shows we have watched peeping from the covers of our bed. First, in Rivers startling feature novel, he takes us into the not too distant world where privacy and freedoms are abolished. This thought provoking vision of government surveillance and intrusion will keep you riveted in suspense from beginning to end. Based on years of research, this "faction" novel will terrify you long after you have put it down because it is the world we are destined for. It is our future, and unless we change the course of events now, no one will escape The Trisix Colony. But that is not all. Next, we are given a gripping little shocker. Like the short Hitchcock classics, Polar dangles the prospects of terror before our eyes. What happens when a young man goes hunting for the weekend and leaves his fiance alone? You quickly discover what awaits him when sweet Debra Ann stops taking her meds. The person he left and the person he returned to are not the same. They are polar opposites as you the reader will see. Finally, we are taken back in time, to The Factory. Young Johann is struggling to keep his family warm and fed. The new economy is providing jobs but what else? In this haunting tale, Johann must discover for himself what price society will pay to rise from the clutches of Depression, and what the price he will pay to expose it. Is the Holocaust over, or is it just beginning? You may not want to find out. Last but not least, Rivers gives us a rare treat, cutting edge mind tinglers in between the stories. Short and provocative, but no less powerful, Rivers assures the reader that every page is gripping. Now go get your popcorn and enjoy. The show is starting.

About the Author: Wade Rivers was born in Oklahoma City but has resided in Arkansas most of his adult life. As a young man, he lived in Europe and travelled extensively before returning to the states where he attended the University of Arkansas and then the University of Oregon. Out of college, he became the Director of a consumer affairs group where he was very involved in lobbying on legislation and travelled frequently between Washington D.C. and Little Rock. Afterwards, he became an investment banker (stockbroker) for ten years and specialized primarily in trading for banks across the country. In the 1990's, Rivers retired from a lifestyle that was very destructive and nearly killed him. He became sober and left the investment business preferring a less stressful and more serene life. He became a painter and eventually a realtor where he bought the farm on the Ouachita River where he now lives with his doting wife and daughter. Though he is still somewhat involved indirectly in government affairs, Rivers' primary ambition is just to write. It is his love. He also covets his time with God and nature. A naturalist, (in the truest sense), he and his family live on a farm surrounded by a river in a virtual wilderness. When he is not tending to his orchards and "chores", he is on the river with his dogs, fishing and kayaking. Currently, Rivers is working on his fourth book, another thriller, and is deeply immersed in his lifelong interest, the pursuit and discovery of mass alternative energy sources.
