High-Tech Threat Meets Old-School Expertise: The Poseidon Project Reinvents the Thriller Genre and Launches New Series

A diverse group of retirees with scientific and espionage backgrounds reunite to prevent global catastrophe in Podojil’s new thriller series.

PHOENIX, ARIZONA, UNITED STATES, August 26, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — In a time when geopolitical tensions are high and cyber threats loom large, author E. William Podojil taps into the zeitgeist with “The Poseidon Project,” the first installment of his new series, The Herb Society Mysteries. This novel brings a fresh perspective to the genre by focusing on a group of retired scientists and spies who are called back into action.

The novel’s premise resonates with an aging population increasingly concerned about their relevance in a rapidly changing world. Podojil’s protagonist, Molly Halloran, represents a growing demographic of retirees seeking purpose and adventure in their golden years. When Molly’s husband disappears during a business trip to Dubai, it highlights the real-world dangers faced by international travelers and sets off a chain of events that could impact billions of lives.

Podojil’s narrative skillfully intertwines elements of family drama with high-stakes international intrigue. The inclusion of an LGBTQ+ subplot – featuring Molly’s son and his potential new boyfriend – reflects the increasing representation of diverse relationships in contemporary literature.

Reflecting on the inspiration behind the book, E. William Podojil states: “My stories include authentic characters doing extraordinary things, regardless of their age, race, gender or orientation. I’ve been inspired by multi-dimensional people who have confronted their challenges and leveraged their experiences to overcome some daunting obstacles.”

Early reviews praise Podojil’s ability to create tension, develop complex characters, and craft a gripping thriller filled with unexpected twists, breathtaking adventure, and sincere family dynamics:

“In Podojil’s mystery-thriller series starter, a wealthy entrepreneur makes a discovery about his mother before accompanying her and her friends on a hair-raising mission… the deftly paced narrative keeps readers flying high… an action-packed adventure yarn.” — Kirkus Reviews

“The Poseidon Project” by E. William Podojil is a gripping thriller that surprises with its unexpected twists and turns.

E. William Podojil’s “The Poseidon Project” is more than a mystery story. There’s breathtaking adventure, unexpected plot twists, and even a bit of exotic romance. Podojil also includes some sincere family dynamics, showing how relationships between parents and children can change and evolve. I recommend this book to lovers of good adventure/mysteries and stories with interesting and unexpected twists.

“Reading The Poseidon Project is like a trying the catapult ride at the state fair. What little time you have to prepare allows the tension to mount, and once you’re buckled in there’s no going back before the thrills come at you unrelentingly.” – Pam Kelley, Goodreads
