OWP Announces the Signing of David Rosenstein
January 25th, 2010
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Otherworld Publications of Louisville, KY is thrilled to announce the signing of Layton, UT author David Rosenstein for the release of The Silk Worm in October of 2010.
About David
David Rosenstein started writing for two reasons. His family always told him he was a great storyteller and he was always running out of thriller/suspense novels to read.
David writes approximately 70% of his time at his day job as a Senior Estimator and Deputy Asset Manager for a worldwide engineering and construction firm, Parsons Corporation, headquartered in Pasadena California. These writing projects consist of lengthy detailed and technical proposals to the Air Force, Army, Marines, CIA, Federal Government, City and State agencies for engineering and construction projects. These proposals, although not published for public use, are composed using the same literary standards authors use for fiction and nonfiction publication.
David often interfaces with Federal and Military technical employees who design and manage high security level computer centers for construction purposes. This is where David learned about how computer security systems function that are used in his fiction writing. Although no national security secrets are divulged in his novel, his work experience gave him the knowledge to write interesting and believable fiction scenarios regarding computers and how the government uses them.
As an avid reader, David has learned how to craft a novel from the best thriller/suspense writers by studying their methods of character development, building of tension, multiple story lines, minds eye story descriptions and unexpected twists and turns. Writers such as Dan Brown, Michael Crichton, Steven Coontz, Dale Brown, John Grisham, Lincoln Childs, David Baldacci and others were read and studied as David’s teachers.
David lives in Layton, Utah, a community 23 miles north of Salt Lake City with his wife and three children.
About The Silk Worm
CIA agent, Richard Gibson, is sent to Hong Kong where he is to meet with a known informant to assess the possibility that a major assault of cyber terrorism, the next terrorism, is about to be unleashed on the free world by brilliant Chinese graduate student, Lee Yong, in an attempt to remove the evil influence of western values imposed upon his country by the capitalist countries of the world.
Richard assembles a team of America’s top computer experts to try and thwart the attack. Within days of Richard’s team starting to work out possible scenarios, the first attack of the Silk Worm hits an airport control tower in northern Taiwan, which results in the crash of two airliners and the death of over three hundred and fifty passengers. The American Ambassador in China is instructed by the President of the United States to lobby the Chinese government in an attempt to allow this team to set up shop in Hong Kong to lead and work with Chinese agents in an effort to kill the attacking computer program and capture its creator.
Richard and his group of field agents hit the streets of Hong Kong with telemetry coordinates in hand to search for the physical locations of the ones responsible for the attack and soon discover that they are the ones being hunted.
