Okay, we're live. Hi, this is William Ramsey. Welcome to William Ramsey.

Investigates on tonight show, a very special guest, a returning guest. His name is Blaine Pardo.

I spoke to him back in July on July 19th, 2019, about a true crime book he wrote with his daughter titled

A Special Kind of Evil, The Colonial Parkway Serial Killings. So you can go back and check that out on my podcast.

But he has just published a book. The title of this book is Blue Dawn, the most chilling

what if in history. The Progressive Overthrow of the United States published June 29th, 2021.

But he has also, since our last interview, he published another true crime book with his daughter, Victoria Hester.

That title of that book is Tantamount, The Pursuit of the Freeway, Phantom Serial Killer.

And he's also done some other historical novels, nonfiction books.

The title of one is The Murder of Maggie Hume, Cold Case in Battle Creek.

That's from 2014. Secret Witness, the untold story of the 1967 bombing in Marshall, Michigan, 2012.

The Terror of the Autumn Sky is the true story of Frank Luke, America's Rogue Ace of World War I.

That was from 2008. And Blaine has also written 15 or 16 books in the Battle of

Tech series. But we're going to talk about this book, which I read. And I really was reading along

with this book. It is a fictional book. It reads like a true story. But there are so many

concepts and things in this that I highly recommend people check out Blue Dawn.

But Blaine Pardo, are you there?

Yeah, I am.

Thanks for having me back on.

Awesome.

Well, thanks for agreeing to the interview.

For people who may not have heard of your background, can you talk about your kind of literary career and what led you to write Blue Dawn?
