Bidwell Moore's most recent book The Black Pearl was released in April 2005.  Nineteen thirty-nine Hawaii: two Hollywood actresses, the artillery brigade's handsomest officer and finest polo player, the polo player's beautiful wife, a Japanese carrier pilot who is sketching the aerial approach to Pearl Harbor, and the captain of the sketcher's sampan unite in a mélange of passionate encounters that find coherence in the symbology of a Tahitian black pearl.

Sidelights are the gold mesh necklace concealed in the God Kane's chest and the emerald cut diamond lost in the sand of the officers' beach at Waialua.


Steel Shards is a true masterpiece that easily whisks the reader back in time to W.W.II. Stripped of propaganda, the conduct and character of the Americans, British, French, and Germans are depicted with searchlight clarity through the eyes of Captain Kimbro Sawyer, CO of an anti-tank company. In over 600 action-packed pages the reader plays touch football with Merle Oberon the Hollywood actress, dances with Lady Nadine Denis, employs anti-tank guns against German pillboxes, joins Bull Rainey in the futile assault on Faid Pass, marches with the doomed assault panzers of Sawyer's German cousin Oberleutnant Gerhard Krieger and fences with one of Germany's clever spies, Hugo Brukner. Later comes hand-to-hand combat with the elite Bersaglieri, the assault on Omaha Beach and the Bulge's seventy-five -mile-deep German salient.
 

With the recently disputed presidential election still fresh in the minds of the public, American Eagle is a fascinating glimpse inside Washington politics. Sex, dirty tricks and blatant propaganda characterize the action.

 

In Caribbean Holiday , Sextus Durkin is recruited by Mideast interests to abduct his wealthy half-brother, Augustus Bishop, in order that they may 'persuade' Bishop to sell them uranium ore. The arabs seek a nuclear capability for their tiny oil-rich country. Holiday is a brutal action thriller set in the Caribbean island of St. Kitts, then the Bahamas' Cat Island. Mako sharks, friendly dolphins, the brain-altered duo Felix and Retro (lion and gorilla) dance through the action pages as counters to the cruelties of Sidi Kusair and his attaché case of pain-inflicting instruments.
