<content:encoded>&lt;![CDATA[ &lt;p&gt;Joseph Badal&#39;s 19th novel, and 4th in his Curtis Chronicles series will be released on November 11, 2025. &lt;em&gt;Soulless&lt;/em&gt; features Eddie Parnall and Tatiana Borodvic who were introduced in Joseph Badal’s novel, &lt;em&gt;Justice&lt;/em&gt;, the third book in the Curtis Chronicles series. Parnall, a retired CIA Agent, and Borodvic, a former Bulgarian Special Operator, join a high-octane cast of characters who starred in previous books in the Curtis Chronicles series, including Matt and Renee Curtis. Joseph Badal introduces diabolical villains who the reader will love to hate, while cheering on the good guys as they work to bring down evildoers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;At a time when human trafficking has become a $150 billion-dollar annual business and a global catastrophe, &lt;em&gt;Soulless&lt;/em&gt; offers a picture of the extent of this crime against humanity and puts the reader on a roller coaster ride of tension and suspense. The story is presented via well-drawn characters and dynamic dialogue that will entertain the most demanding thriller and mystery fans.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Fans of Robert Ludlum, Robert Dugoni, and Brad Thor will love this story. Badal is a master at mystifying, misleading, surprising, and entertaining the reader. &lt;figure data-trix-attachment=&#39;{&quot;contentType&quot;:&quot;image/png&quot;,&quot;filename&quot;:&quot;sjxjzf1lzuvzvwm5h9nf0rm9k4pp&quot;,&quot;filesize&quot;:1223659,&quot;height&quot;:900,&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://res.cloudinary.com/wellfleet/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto,c_limit,w_600/sjxjzf1lzuvzvwm5h9nf0rm9k4pp&quot;,&quot;width&quot;:600}&#39; data-trix-content-type=&quot;image/png&quot; data-trix-attributes=&#39;{&quot;presentation&quot;:&quot;gallery&quot;}&#39; class=&quot;attachment attachment--preview&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://res.cloudinary.com/wellfleet/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto,c_limit,w_600/sjxjzf1lzuvzvwm5h9nf0rm9k4pp&quot; width=&quot;600&quot; height=&quot;900&quot;&gt;&lt;figcaption class=&quot;attachment__caption&quot;&gt; &lt;/figcaption&gt;&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;/p&gt; ]]&gt;</content:encoded>
