I'm the author of The Boxcar Blues, which in book stores and online book sellers now. This is a hard hitting story about two teenage boys growing up and trying to survive during the Great Depression. This novel is a coming of age story, a crime drama, an aviatioin epic and a story of lost, and regained love all rolled into one. This will be followed by The Brazilian Blues in October, 2008. A kidnapping in the dangerous Amazon River basin leads to a one thousand mile chase through the most hostile country on earth. The ransom money gets stolen, a boat gets stranded in the middle of the rain forest and crooked cops derail a rescue attempt...that's just the beginning. The third book is The Espionage Blues. Set in cold war Russia, a patriotic pilot tries to help his country, but finds out the espionage game is far more complicated an diabolical than he ever imagined.
