Adventure thriller set in Renaissance Italy starring Leonardo da Vinci as a young apprentice who witnesses a murder and becomes involved in a plot to take over the city.LEONARDO AND THE DEATH MACHINE is first and foremost a thriller, set against the background of Renaissance Italy. However, the Leonardo of the title is in fact Leonardo da Vinci. This is a totally fictional adventure, but it COULD have happened.When we first meet Leonardo we find him apprenticed to a successful artist in Florence. But although he yearns to be a great artist himself, he's rather disillusioned with his apprenticeship, which has made him more of an errand boy than an art student. Then, when an impromptu street football match ends in an arm injury for his friend Sandro (whom history will know as Botticelli), Leonardo leaps at the opportunity to help out the unfortunate painter who has been commissioned to paint a portrait for the rich Medici family.

**Review
"Along with providing fascinating technical details and superb sex scenes, Buchman is a master of delivering romance that is as charming as plausible within a military setting. This will please his growing audience as well as fans of Suzanne Brockman, Maya Banks, Catherine Mann, and Kaylea Cross." - Booklist
"The Night Stalkers series continues in true Buchman style with high-octane action, perfect attention to technical details and sizzling-hot love scenes. Going one step beyond, Buchman pleases his readers with fan-favorite cameo appearances. Take note: A character cheat sheet might be needed. But if you are a fan of military romance and haven't tried a Night Stalkers book, what are you waiting for?" - RT Book Reviews, 4 Stars
"The Night Stalker series is one of my favorites and I hope he continues with it. Not only that but even though it's a new book he always finds a way for past characters to be a part of it even if they're only mentioned once. "By Break of Day" was a great read and I truly recommend it." - Night Owl Reviews

Finding his place back in the corporate world, Ben Kincaid tries to make his fortune without losing his soul
Since he fled the dehumanizing tedium of corporate law, Ben Kincaid has scratched out a living on the rough side of Tulsa, working cases strictly related to the three Ds: divorce, deeds, and dog bites. So when the state's largest corporation, the Apollo Consortium, offers him six figures to join them as in-house counsel, he can't turn down the pay raise. But if the Apollo partners think they've hired a legal stooge, they're wrong. Kincaid is a bloodhound, determined to sniff out the truth no matter the cost.
As Kincaid tries to fit in at his new offices, a serial killer stalks Tulsa, luring young women into his car before chopping them into bits. But these horrors pale in comparison to the infighting at Apollo. And when he comes out on the wrong side of a turf war, Kincaid finds himself defending a hapless loser against a murder charge. The client's name: Ben Kincaid. Views: 61
