Tom Rieber Author

Hello everybody,

For a writer the most exciting and scary day is the day your first book arrives.  Well, yesterday I received my advance copy of The Nine Irony in UPS.  My fingers trembled as I ripped open the package from my publisher, afraid that maybe the title was spelled wrong or they put my dog’s pic in instead of mine.  Who knows?  Any author goes though this anxiety.  I began reading, praying that I wouldn’t find mistakes that I’d missed.  Yes there were a few, but probably ones I would only notice.  So, the soup is finished, the roast is out of the oven and Nick Thomas is a reality.  He is a modern day Travis MGee, to those who might remember.

I will be setting up accounts today at Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble.com and Ingram Books.com and it will also be available though my web site.  I will also have it in E-Book format and am working on an MP-3 version as well.  I think we all have to embrace the NOW with new technology.

I will keep you posted and PLEASE order my book!!!! Thank You and I am GRATEFUL for all your support and encouragement!  Tom

The Nine Irony

The first in the

Nick Thomas Mystery Series

by Tom Rieber

Most people would call it bad luck; some would call it fate, while the adjusted few would simply call it life.  It was about money-a lot of money, and Nick becomes the unknowing victim of the perfect frame.  As fast as the wind changes he found himself clawing his way out of a carefully constructed web of murder, deceit and greed and wanted for questioning in two gruesome murders.

The Nine Irony captures the Cape Cod experience with all its spirit and color, and has created real characters that come alive on the pages and leaving you wanting more.

Hello all you thriller buffs.  This is a refreshing look at human nature, living a sober life while fighting against some very sick people.  In the weeks to follow Rieber will give you snippets of this book and a short introduction into the next book, “The Devil’s Parody” that centers around the disease of gambling and just how far someone would go for a lot of money.  Would YOU cut off your little finger for $10,000.00?  Would you spin the cylinder of a gun and play Russian Roulette for 1 million?

Nick Thomas is a little bit of all of us, just a little more centered and a whole lot resourceful.  North Carolina Mystery writer, Tom Rieber, has captured a slice of reality while creating a suspenseful and  fun read.

-Dan Essy, Amereican Book Reviews 2009

The day is finally just around the corner.  It only took ten years of the typical writer’s procrastination and the kick in the a– from some great friends and fellow authors.  The Nine Irony is the suspense thriller you’ve all been waiting for with real people facing seemingly insurmountable odds of survival in this deceptive web of murder, deceit, greed and, of course, a little spicy sex. Nick is a little bit of all of us created from within.  He is a modern-day Travis McGee for those who remember the great John D. McDonald who is a saver of errant souls and broken hearts.  Have fun and enjoy this great read.

I want to thank my dear friend and fellow author, Jacqueline DeGroot, for putting her foot in my behind and motivating me to make this move.

Please join me in the celebration, location TBA.  The book will be available on Amazon.com, Ingram, Barnes & Noble and many others which I will post when I have the list complete.

Thank you for your loyalty and support,

Tom Rieber, Author and Creator
