A PATRIOTIC HERO TAKES ON EVIL FROM ACROSS THE POND -- THE ADVENTURES OF COLONEL BRITANNIA NOW AVAILABLE

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Author Jim Doherty takes on a superhero trope in Pulp fashion in Pro Se Productions’ latest release-THE ADVENTURES OF COLONEL BRITANNIA -- now available in print and digital formats.

As the world reels from events that will soon lead to World War II, Commander Frederick Wentworth, RN, separated from Anne Elliot, the girl he loves, by class prejudice, decides to throw himself full-bore into his profession. Qualifying as both a commando and a fighter pilot, he volunteers for a potentially fatal medical procedure, one that, if successful, could make him something more than a soldier.

It could make him a symbol.

Reuniting with Anne, now an RAF nurse, and emerging from the experiment improved to the peak of human perfection, Wentworth adopts the persona of “Colonel Britannia,” the UK’s answer to the flamboyant Nazi military leader, Das Silberne Skelett, “The Silver Skeleton.”

In the course of the War’s early years, Wentworth will not only embody the spirit of his home country and all that stands for right during the war, but he will save an entire convoy from a sub attack, take on the Skeleton at every turn, become the UK’s top ace during the Battle of Britain, and fight with everything he has to stop the Nazi menace. If he’s good and lucky enough.

THE ADVENTURES OF COLONEL BRITANNIA by Jim Doherty with stunning cover art by the legendary Joe Staton and print formatting by Antonino lo Iacono and Marzia Marina is available in print for $12.99 at https://tinyurl.com/49zwyzxw.

TOP NOTCH POLICE PROCEDURAL FROM A REAL LIFE COP ‘THE BIG GAME AND OTHER CRIME STORIES’ NOW AVAILABLE

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Jim Doherty, author of AN OBSCURE GRAVE, a Dan Sullivan novel, and JUST THE FACTS: TRUE TALES OF COPS AND CRIMINALS, returns to a character that is in part auto biographical and wholly a unique character in police procedural fiction. Balancing action and suspense with authentic police work, Doherty’s Dan Sullivan leaves his mark once again in THE BIG GAME AND OTHER CRIME STORIES, now available in print and digital formats from Pro Se Productions.

Follow UC Berkeley undergrad and part-time cop Dan Sullivan as he works his way through fourteen stories, each one a case that tests Sullivan’s skills as a policeman and showcases the necessary, sometimes exciting work that a cop puts in on every job. 

“Doherty’s crisp, authoritative writing style put you right in Officer Dan Sullivan’s radio car, riding shotgun, as he navigates the surprisingly dangerous streets of Berkeley and the U.C. Campus.”

Officer Jerry Kennealy, San Francisco Police (ret.), award-winning author of the Jack Kordic series, the Johnny O’Rorke series, and the Nick Polo series.

“They say ‘fiction is the lie through which we tell the truth,’ and I can think of no better example than this book by Chief Jim Doherty. Authors who have been in law enforcement will tell you that many times a spark of truth will enter our fictional worlds. We may base them on incidents that were funny, serious, or even tragic, but this dose of realism is often what helps connect readers with our stories. In his book, Jim takes the reader through a series of fictional events that will appeal to the police procedural genre enthusiast, but then, like a magician revealing a secret, he opens the door to the real-world incidents which inspired them.”

Sgt. Andrew Nelson, NYPD (ret.), author of the Commissioner James Maguire series, the Police Chief Alex Taylor series, and the Detective Anthony Antonucci series.

THE BIG GAME AND OTHER CRIME STORIES, with fantastic cover work and formatting by Antonino lo Iacono and Marzia Marina, is available via Amazon for $9.99.

This thrilling collection is also available on Kindle formatted by Iacono and Marina for $0.99 for a limited time. Kindle Unlimited Members can read these stories for free!

AN OBSCURE GRAVE, Doherty’s full-length Dan Sullivan novel, is also available in print and digital format on Amazon.

PRO SE PRODUCTIONS DEBUTS FIRST VOLUME IN PULPSTUDIES IMPRINT- JUST THE FACTS: TRUE TALES OF COPS AND CRIMINALS

Pro Se Productions, a cutting edge Publisher of Genre Fiction known for innovation in its field, announced the debut of a new imprint late last year focused on nonfiction works. PULPSTUDIES is a line that will feature books focused either on academic and/or historical studies of New Pulp Fiction and on subjects that would be of interest to New Pulp and Genre Fiction fans and creators. Today, Pro Se Productions proudly debuted the first PULPSTUDIES volume. JUST THE FACTS: TRUE TALES OF COPS AND CRIMINALS by career officer and author Jim Doherty.

“This book,” says Tommy Hancock, Partner in and Editor in Chief of Pro Se Productions, “is amazing. Jim Doherty brings stories of the good and bad guys of crime to life with a style that lets you know not only is he a law enforcement professional, but he’s also a fan of the history itself. Real life figures, both those everyone probably recognizes and so many that most of us have never heard of, don’t just leap off the page. They shoot, drive, roll, tumble, and fight their way from Jim’s wonderfully handled prose into a sort of new reality all their own for the reader.”

“Jim Doherty combines the cool eye of a law enforcement professional (which he is) with the fiery enthusiasm of a fan (which he also is) in a superb collection of essays detailing the true-crime back-stories of some of mystery fiction’s greatest yarns. These crisp, no-nonsense accounts are hypnotically readable, and the Eliot Ness chapter alone is worth the price of admission.”
