Blue Coyote Motel is a suspense thriller about six travelers who stop at a motel and become unknowingly addicted to a "feel-good" drug by a mad scientist. He has been fired from a prestigious drug manufacturer for giving his beautiful Latina wife an anti-aging hormone he discovered.
Would you take an anti-aging hormone? What if you could keep your youth? If someone you knew was terrified of aging, and you'd invented the hormone, would you give it to them? Even if it meant discovery would cause you to lose your chance of winning the Nobel Prize?
An Award Winning Best Seller, Blue Coyote Motel was chosen as a quarter finalist in Amazon's Breakthrough Novel Award contest in the mystery/thriller category as well as a Goodreads Psychological Thriller Book of the Month.
Blue Coyote Motel is a suspenseful love story which begins in the barrios of Southern California and spans the globe in such diverse locations as Provence, South America, and the Himalayas. The beautiful Latina, Maria, and her husband, Jeffrey, a scientist fired from a prestigious laboratory, struggle to build a new life in a remote Southern California desert area as owners of the motel.
Along with the anti-aging hormone, Jeffrey invents a "feel-good" wonder drug to help Maria with her depression. As Jeffrey becomes insane, he begins to experiment with the wonder drug. Six wayward travelers, including an alcoholic priest, a couple who own gold mines in Brazil, a depressed widow, a struggling salesman, and a Native American pediatrician, find themselves spending the night at the small motel. The next morning they wake up feeling better than ever. Has Jeffrey's miracle drug delivered? Or is the nightmare of addiction only beginning?
Excerpt
He thought about what a refreshing and pleasant place the Blue Coyote had turned out to be. Yesterday he had seen nothing but tumbleweeds and searing blacktop when he drove down the highway, but today he saw the beauty of the desert with its varying shades of brown and the beautiful hills in the distance. Yes, it definitely felt good to be alive.

Great read, can't put it down!
I just started reading Blue Coyote Motel and I can't put it down! From the first page, the story draws you in and locks your mind on the feeling that everything is driven by a great cosmic force. From an enjoyment standpoint, this book creates everything you could desire for entertainment, intense thoughts and all around literary excitement. This book is my new best friend, my train commute has just taken on a whole new meaning. As a bonus, this is volume 1... may there be many more to come.
Blue Coyote Motel
This book is magic!
My husband got hold of the book as soon a I brought it home and I still have not been able to rip it out of his hands. He has been obsessed with it. He has not been this interested in reading since he got hooked on Stieg Larsson's first book, (the Girl with the Dragon Tatoo), followed by the second and third book in that series. Then as now, he read morning, day and night. It is truly amazing to see him THAT deeply engrossed in Blue Coyote Motel. Dianne Harman has written a absolut keeper here and I hope I will soon get my turn to read it.
We all now hope that Dianne, after showing her very strong penmanship and imagination, continues to pump out books for all of us to enjoy!
Thank you Dianne!
WOW!
My first question, "What is up with this motel?" There's an over the hill football player with a blown out knee, who comes to the motel, ready to give up on everything. Spends one night...his entire life turns out for the better. A Native American with major anger issues, spends the night and wakes up happy and ready to take on the task of becoming a pediatrician and the tribe's Medicine Man, to take care of his people.
Dianne tells of a whole cast of flawed characters with different problems that are somehow made bearable and also made their lives better, after spending one night in this motel, or so it seems. Dianne Harman tells you the story of what and where this motel came from, who started it and why. The mysterious happenings kept me moving forward to find out what's going on with a disgraced scientist and his beautiful, narcissistic wife (it is explained why she became that way...truly heartbreaking) who run this motel.
I have to admit, there was one part of the book, I had a hard time getting through and once you read it, you will see why. But, the mystery of what is going to happen, kept me intrigued

I recommend this book because of its original story-line and subject matter and the one thing that I came away with to describe this book. "Don't mess with Mother Nature."
