I believe book trailers are a great way to promote your book.
My first was using iMovie on my Apple Mac Air. Fun to make and bad – it’s essentially a slide show…
Then I paid for some simple teasers and trailers that, I never asked, appeared to be made using an Adobe/Canva like product.
Recently, I found my forever team, Monologue Digital out of the Netherlands. View their work.
Now to the list… drum roll please!

You just boarded a flight to New York.
There are one hundred and forty-three other passengers onboard.
What you don’t know is that thirty minutes before the flight your pilot’s family was kidnapped.
For his family to live, everyone on your plane must die.
The only way the family will survive is if the pilot follows his orders and crashes the plane.
Enjoy the flight.
Deadly operative Scot Harvath faces down democracy’s most powerful enemy.
High in the Himalayas, armed with a host of barbaric, improvised weapons, Chinese troops ambush a contingent of highly decorated Indian soldiers. The brutal, hand-to-hand combat lasts for over six hours, destabilizing the already tenuous relationship between the two nuclear neighbors.
Fearful of the global consequences of engaging Beijing head-on, countless United States administrations have passed the buck. But when a covert American diplomat tasked with negotiating an Asian version of NATO is murdered on the streets of Jaipur, doing nothing is no longer an option. It is time to unleash Scot Harvath.
Thrust into a completely unfamiliar culture, with few he can trust, the danger begins to mount the moment Harvath lands in India. Amidst multiple competing forces and a host of deadly agendas, it is nearly impossible to tell predator from prey. With democracy itself hanging in the balance, Harvath will risk everything to untangle the explosive plot and bring every bad actor to justice.

Will the forces that threaten to destroy the United States be enough to light the fuse of Reece’s resurrection?
