|  | | Knowing Daniel
Set in the late 1700s and early 1800s, this dramatic historical novel is a page-turning book with robust characters. Daniel Burns struggles with the love of two women and persistent nightmares as he fights real and imaginary foes. The book steeped in the substance of life itself: happiness, sorrow, romance, action and conflict. The true-to-life characters taste both defeat and victory in roller coaster events.
The hero is Daniel Burns, a talented young man considered a prize catch by the young women in the frontier town of Oakville, situated atop the Cumberland Plateau not far from the Smoky Mountains in Tennessee. Daniel's attempts to choose the perfect woman drives him into bizarre reactions while jealous and deadly enemies stalk him and his former gentrified classmates even before he reaches full manhood.
True to the times, the many colorful characters of the novel do not change the sources or outcomes of historical events as they actually occurred. | |  | | My Friend the Felon
While his friend struggles with illegal ambitions, the author worries if fun-loving Jimmy Bray can resist pressure from his girlfriend to become a hardened criminal. Meanwhile, the author is also concerned about the suffering of his cousin Bobbie, who is thwarted in her efforts to locate the child she had with Hank Williams. In a twist reminiscent of a Dickens tale, a schemer managed to cast Bobbie's two-year-old daughter into the world of anonymity to prevent her from inheriting a fortune. My Friend the Felon is based on true simultaneous stories.
