    Meet Bill Blowers

    After a successful career as an engineer and business owner, Bill has turned his creative efforts in the direction of creative writing. He enjoys creating works of original fiction, humor, fictitious scenarios about past historical events and satirical observations on the human condition. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences recognized Bills creative efforts during his professional engineering career. His novel, Dangerous Betrayal-The Vendetta That Sank Titanic chronicles a story of hatred and revenge ultimately resulting in the famous disaster.

    At 2:20 a.m. on the night of April 15, 1912, 1500 people perished in an iconic nightmare that would perplex the world for generations. How was it that the unsinkable Titanic, carrying 1320 passengers and a crew of 892, sank in freezing waters after hitting an iceberg three hours earlierespecially when the technology of Titanic was such that she could have easily avoided the impact with the iceberg? Was this a bizarre accident or the unfolding of a sinister plot to undermine the success of White Star Lines feature attraction? For over 100 years, the secret lay hidden in Titanics bowels at the bottom of the North Atlantic. Dangerous Betrayal brings to the surface a story of conspiracy and revenge. In vivid prose he paints a picture of an age of ruthless, wealthy barons who run roughshod over anyone or anything that stands in their way, including the most brilliant inventor of the eraNikola Tesla. Perhaps the world will finally know what may have happened that fateful night that held Titanic hostage on her maiden voyage.
