Title: Malachi, Ruse Master
Author: Pamela Schloesser Canepa
Voice Actor/Narrator: Ken Pruchniewski
Genre: Sci-fi/ Crossover
Book Blurb:
Duplicity is Mike’s first nature. If you want to know what he’s doing with his life, just ask, but don’t expect the truth. You may not even be getting his real name.
Such duplicity is the reason a so-called "acting job" at a suspiciously sparse agency LLJF becomes the perfect solution to Mike’s college drop-out blues. During a time when he is just finding out who he really is, Mike adopts the new identity of "Malachi", and it fits like a glove.
A broken nose, a lost tooth, stealing scientific secrets, and a run through the alleys of DC are all in a day’s work. Malachi is the best at uncovering the truths that others want to hide, and the taste of succeeding at what you are best at is intoxicating.
Malachi is willing to do anything to get his paycheck - until he must decide if the thrill of deception is worth the price he must pay.
Malachi, Ruse Master is a Detours in Time series character spin-off that also reads well as a stand-alone and intersects with events from Undercurrents in Time.

Author Biography:
By day, Pamela teaches Secondary English. By night, she travels to other worlds and times, placing herself in the persona of her characters, all while sitting in her favorite chair. She has enjoyed writing for various reasons ever since childhood, when she realized writing and making up stories would provide entertainment for long trips and keep her company. Her tendency toward fantastic stories was reflected in tales of discovering modern day dinosaurs and talking horses that would give her advice. The writing of poetry provided an outlet for private thoughts and emotions for years until she decided to self-publish fiction in 2016. Pamela's genres include science fiction, paranormal fiction, and poetry of all types. The Made for Me series is Pamela's first published fiction series. She released her first full-length novel, Detours in Time, in the summer of 2017 and the sequel in 2018. Pamela currently juggles her day job with her dog, occasional writing, painting, and taking Improv workshops for variety!
