A Stroke of Luck

I am seeking a home or representation for any, or all, of my three completed projects, which span gripping true crime, an inspiring stroke recovery half-hour TV dramedy, and a high-stakes featurepolitical thriller. Each is primed for a wide audience and significant commercial success. The non-fiction book High Profit, Low Risk is a mix of memoir, exposé, and business book—an insider’s look at the black-market cannabis trade and how legalization failed to kill it.

I am seeking a home or representation for any, or all, of my three completed projects, which span gripping true crime, an inspiring stroke recovery half-hour TV dramedy, and a high-stakes featurepolitical thriller. Each is primed for a wide audience and significant commercial success. The non-fiction book High Profit, Low Risk is a mix of memoir, exposé, and business book—an insider’s look at the black-market cannabis trade and how legalization failed to kill it. This is my firsthand account of navigating the underground world of high-stakes weed deals, dodging law enforcement, and witnessing how legalization ironically fueled the illicit market. Fans of Narcos and Black Edge will find this a fascinating, real-life ride through a billion-dollar business still thriving in the shadows. A Stroke of Luck, a half-hour TV series dramedy, is inspired by my own battle as a stroke survivor. When a stubborn, semi-paralyzed patient (me) lands in a chaotic rehab ward, he and his equally tenacious fellow patients form an unlikely alliance—turning their struggles into moments of defiant humor, heartbreak, and camaraderie. Think The Upside meets One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, but with more catheters and curse words. Inspired by M. A. S. H. the TV series. The Fentanyl War is a ripped-from-the-headlines feature political thriller. After the U.S. President’s daughters die from fentanyl-laced counterfeit prescription pills, he orders a military strike on the cartels, igniting a war that pits him and his ex-Navy SEAL Chief of Staff against cartel kingpins, Washington power plays, and global adversaries. With echoes of Sicario and Tom Clancy thrillers, this is a cinematic, high-stakes ride with real-world urgency. I am an experienced author with a dozen published crime novels, but I am now looking for the right agent or publisher to take my work to the next level. I believe these completed projects have serious commercial appeal, from gripping adaptations to breakout bestsellers. Full manuscripts, synopses, or sample chapters are available upon request. I’d love the opportunity to discuss any, or all, of these projects with you. Please let me know if you’d like to see more. Best regards,?Jed Power?jedpower@verizon.net
