Guest Authors Jake and Kate Persy

About us. Our names are Jake and Kate Persy and we’re young, self-publishing writers. We’re a happy couple, we have a healthy, active lifestyle and our motto is, ‘The best moment to be happy is right now’.

Kate: “Jake is someone who is just constantly growing and developing. He has such a wide range of interests that he’s like an open book to me. Jake has a good understanding of modern cinema, but still takes delight in watching old James Bond movies. He also loves listening to rock music at full volume. Jake can sit for hours, working on a serious project, and then suddenly jump up and run outside to watch the falling snow, just like a child. He’s put part of his fiery, aspiring nature into each of the characters in the book.”

Jake: “It’s always fun when Kate’s around! She’s charming, optimistic and makes friends so easily. She enjoys kung fu training, and that’s actually how we met. Kate likes reading books and playing with her pet tortoise, as well as cooking and making me try out her new dishes. She’s creative and always full of new business ideas. I believe that we’ll definitely be bringing one of them to life one day.”

About our book. Codename: Chimera is a fast-paced whodunit mystery. Because of its easy, laid-back style, the pace of the action and the absorbing puzzles, the book soon took off. In Codename: Chimera, the detective and his friends investigate a chain of bloody events with links to an ancient curse. The terrible secret they are trying to get to the bottom of is shrouded in the legend of a mythical creature, Chimera.

Book description. A famous millionaire dies under mysterious circumstances in the Brooklyn ghetto. What it was that made him go to such a dangerous place at night remains a mystery. The only clue is a book, Mythical Creatures of Ancient Greece, left on his body and opened at a page on Chimera. Private detective Kevin Kris takes on the case, helped by Penny, his trusty assistant, and Michael, his best friend. They soon uncover a chain of bloody events shrouded in mystery from the past. Little by little the private detective and his friends discover the real truth hidden by the Man With No Face.

Social impact. We wanted to do more than just write an interesting story; we wanted to share our philosophy with you, and our motto, ‘The best moment to be happy is right now’, sums it up perfectly. Using the example of the characters in Codename: Chimera, we wanted to show you how important it is to savour every single second, and not put off until tomorrow what life holds for you today.
