A year has passed since Tom met resistance fighters against the military dictatorship in Greece, was interrogated and threatened by the secret police, made new friends and made a promise to Sophia.
Hardly does he land in Athens again in July 1970 when he and his friends receive their first courier assignment for the resistance group, which takes him to Crete and entails many unpleasant surprises. Their assignments become more and more dangerous, which welds the group ever tighter around Tom, Nikos, and Sophia.
In northern Greece, Tom and Nikos are ambushed by Albanian agents, and on the concentration camp island of Leros they are again targeted by the secret police. Tom soon realizes that things are often not what they seem. At the same time he realizes that he is in a dilemma: he loves Sophia, but he also loves Nikos. Will he have to make a decision?
In the second book of "The Right People" series, the action picks up pace. Adventure and danger lurk around every corner, but Tom and his friends take on the challenge, now joined by Dave the Englishman, four Australian students and two pairs of German siblings.
I'd like to take John Piccone for the time and energy he spent editing this book.

[TO BE EDITED] Book #1 (Princess of Greece) "I have offer for you." I start. "Hmm interesting." He walks towards me and takes cigar pack from nightstand, pulls out one with lips and lights it. "What kind of offer darling?" "Sex offer." He starts coughing. "Excuse me."Covering mouth he takes cigar with middle and index fingers. Pure shock is written on his face. "Let's have sex, just sex. Both of us will be satisfied." I take cigarette from his hand and then put in my mouth. "What do you say? No sleeping together, no commitment, just pure orgasm." "You want to have sex with me." He assures himself. "Don't act like you don't want to rip my clothes off right now, you know you want me." It's my turn to be fucking smug asshole. "Oh yeah?" His eyes slightly squint. "I'm your favorite enemy." My smirk, cockiness, attitude, it's not that bad being in Kent's shoes. I'm very entertained. "Hell yes you are." He murmurs but I hear. "Well then, we'll just have meaningless pleasurable sex." I explain once again. "But still keep pretending that you don't like me." "I do not like you." "Then how will it work?"

Attached- Tsukishima Kei
Tsukki falls for his chaotic Black friend. That's it. Okay real summary: Kanai Athena came to Japan when she was in middle school.

Read as the chaotic duo go through slight ups and downs in order to figure out their feelings for one another.

The Most Beautiful Place On God's Earth
The adventurous journey continues. After Dave suddenly finds himself blackmailed by the IRA, Tom and Martin travel to London to help him solve the problem. In the process they get to know other "right people", the German TV cameramen Hans and Reiner and the musicians of the reggae band "The Uptones". In the course of the year, Tom and Martin travel to Northern Ireland, where they meet Barry Madden, the head of finance of the IRA, who turns out to be a "very nice murderer". They meet a similarly "nice murderer", namely the Libyan head of state, Col. Gaddafi, when they accompany Madden on a secret trip to Libya, where he strikes an "arms for information" deal. Gaddafi offers generous financial support to the Greek resistance organization in return for information from the NATO base at Souda Bay on Crete, from where he fears an attack on his country. But in Greece, too, there are further adventures to be had. For example Philipos, the youngest, cheekiest and most precocious member of the group, on a mission that the group is carrying out in Kastoria in northern Greece, finds himself in a cellar with 100 skulls and a zombie, which is a big, albeit embarrassing, step on his path to adulthood. Time and again Tom and his friends get into unpredictable, dangerous situations, which they survive because the members of their group now understand each other other blindly, become braver each time and learn from their mistakes. Of course there are news about the love triangle of Tom - Sophia - Nikos, and love affairs also emerge among the other members of the resistance group. As I said - the journey continues, more adventurous, more dangerous, more exciting. This is a work of fiction, although I thoroughly researched the historical facts. New chapters will be uploaded every Friday.Complete

Green Neon
"Green Neon" is the first of 20 volumes in my book series "The Right People". Tom, a 15-year-old German, is spending the summer holidays at Christina's house in Athens in 1969 during a military dictatorship. His hostess is a lawyer who represents opponents of the regime, and shortly after arriving, he meets men at Christina's flat who had been interned in a concentration camp on the island of Gyaros. This meeting makes him suspicious in the eyes of the police, with whom he engages in a game of cat and mouse without even knowing it. He meets Sophia, with whom he falls in love with the help of a full moon over the Acropolis, her brother Georgios, who is used by his father as his sister's chaperone with rather limited success, and Nikos, who soon becomes Tom's best friend. After just a few days, Tom realizes that this holiday will be very different from what he imagined at home in Hohenberg, Westphalia. How could he have known that he would experience his first great love and be hunted down by the dictatorship's henchmen, interrogated and threatened with arrest? How could he have foreseen that a bronze statue thousands of years old would take his breath away? And what would he have said to someone who had prophesied that he would soon be able to recognize plainclothes police officers by green neon signs on their foreheads? I invite you to accompany Tom and his friends on this exciting journey. All characters, except those from contemporary history, are fictitious. However, the plot itself is based on diaries and letters; historical facts have been carefully researched. New chapters are uploaded every Friday. Please don't forget to like, comment and follow my page. I would like to thank John Piccone for his hard work and the countless hours he spent editing the English translation. Have fun.Complete

✓ | The Crown of the Dead
Almost thirty years have passed since the second Titan War. At least, that's what everyone keeps telling Bianca. She doesn't quite understand what the second Titan War is- or was, for that matter- or why it's important. Bianca doesn't understand a lot of things. For example: why she is just now realizing that her parents were demigods- children of the Greek gods themselves- and she's what people at camp call a "legacy." She also doesn't understand why her Aunt Piper practically tossed her into a car with two men she's never met and shipped her off to this aforementioned camp. A magic camp for descendants of the gods. Camp Half Blood. Bianca doesn't understand why everyone at Camp Half Blood seems to whisper under their breaths whenever she passes by. She doesn't understand the class system or the sub divisions of legacies, or how magic works, or how to fight monsters. She doesn't understand why all of these people who were painted as best friends have grown so distant. But the biggest thing she doesn't understand? Definitely her existence. Kids who aren't biologically related to their parents shouldn't be getting claimed by both their godly grandparents. ----------------------------------------------------------------- The Greek Tragedies series: 1/4 The world and a lot of the adult characters belong to Rick Riordan, don't sue me please~Complete
