Perry Ludy Releases Debut Novel, The Third
Medallion
(1888 PressRelease) "Ruthless killing. Lies and
deception. Manipulation. These are not the
intended goals of globalization, but very often
the results." -Dr. Tyler West, The Third
Medallion. ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. - Senior executive
and business book author Perry J. Ludy today
released his first novel in the Tyler West
series. The Third Medallion pairs prominent
executive Tyler West with his wife, Lydia, and
their Jack Russell terrier PJ, as they come face
to face with rogue government agents and
assassins in search of a medallion in their
possession. When Tyler and Lydia accept a
mysterious invitation to Monte Carlo, it leads to
an intriguing multi-million-dollar business deal
for Tyler and for Lydia, a new friend who
mysteriously and tragically dies after slipping
her something equally intriguing a commemorative
medallion that instantly plunges the couple into
a high stakes game of corporate espionage. As
the couple struggles to find the true meaning
behind the medallion, they find themselves
questioning who to trust the plodding French
detective investigating a string of murders, the
retired MI6 agent who seemingly comes to their
rescue, or the debonair yet shadowy stranger who
appears to know their every move. Unaccustomed to
dealing with the underbelly of business, Tyler
and Lydia are forced to rely on their wit - and
grit - to save their medallion and themselves.
The Third Medallion is the debut book in the
Tyler West series, a set of novels featuring the
jet-setting duo of Dr. Tyler West, a prominent
African-American business executive, and his
business partner wife, Lydia. Tyler has a calm
and measured demeanor that serves as a perfect
balance for Lydia's insatiable curiosity, and
taste for adventure. Together, they uncover a
formula that, in the wrong hands, may hold the
power to revolutionize world financial markets or
drive world powers to war.
