I'm a journalist, novelist, and occasional screenwriter: author of 13 published books, with the 14th due on March 31, 2010. That is Devil's Keep, from Pocket Books/Simon & Schuster. It's my first published novel in almost 15 years: a thriller with a complex, tormented protagonist, a vivid setting, a truly diabolic criminal conspiracy, and a stunning last-page plot twist. It takes place mainly in the Philippines, where I have lived and traveled extensively, and where I have deep personal roots. From the cover: A decade ago, Ray Favor was a remorseless killer for the Black Ops cell Bravo One Nine. He did what he was hired to do out of patriotism and duty. Now, having amassed a fortune, but deeply troubled by his past and suspicious of his own nature, Favor is motivated by something more: a chance to right the wrongs he committed and restore balance. He gets that chance deep in the Philippines, where the disappearance of two teenagers leads Favor and his Bravo team to confront an illegal operation by the Russian mob—and an evil so deplorable that it can only be righted by the means Favor once used to wreak destruction. Now, driven by a hungry sense of purpose, Ray Favor will seek retribution by any means necessary. And exact a violent justice without mercy—or regret. READ MY WORK Three of my books are available free in HTML form on the site Libertary.com: the novels Paradise Junction and Sugarland, and the non-fiction Fatal Flaw, which deals with a 1976 quadruple murder in Orange County, Florida, and which has long been difficult to obtain. In addition I'm pleased to offer here a free PDF version of Fatal Flaw. The Google Books Page for Diving Into Darkness (UK and global title: Raising The Dead) has an extensive preview and some nice reviews. WANT MORE? Find all my works in print (and some that aren't) on My Author Page on Amazon. Stay up to date with me and my work on Facebook.
