To serve society or humanity? It's been fourteen years since the basketball-mad detective Fran Obrien captured the urban bomber Lavi, who has since moved to Spain and rehabilitated himself beyond recognition. Fran is fresh off a two-year sabbatical, during which he tended to 11-year-old Ben, the family comedian, and 17-year-old Alice, with, yes, as much attitude as you'd expect. His estranged boss Karl has retired and Fran must learn to deal with the new brass - no small task itself. His first assignment is to investigate an act of alleged political corruption which seems more wild goose...

Three Days in July is the tale of a ten-year journey to discover one's roots. From a London base, I scouted and scoured databases, joined ancestry forums and corresponded with archives in numerous countries, sometimes successfully. However, nothing can compare with understanding the land first hand. Accordingly, when I had time to spare this summer, I flew to Lithuania and rented a car, with a mission to absorb history with the aid of a contemporary personal lens and a smartphone, but no maps. Buy the ticket, take the ride. But wait, there's more. If one portion of the family was daring...

Return of the Drama Prince is the sequel to 2011's Nectar of the Lavender, fifteen years down the road. Rather than young, single, and gainfully employed, our main character is married with three children and now freelances, but in a most unexpected industrial pursuit. He has outgrown depression but has been unable to tackle in his mind sources of his inner social and professional conflict. He's outwardly relaxed and life should be fine, but he can't escape the Doldrums, and he fears he may run out of time before they envelop him. This condition he masks through exaggerated courtesy and...

Think yourself alive. The Victory Walk tells the story of one man's long struggle for the rights of the silent majority, told through the eyes of an idealistic yet practical part-time right hand man, who in the era of digital democracy, performs this role remotely.

The Victory Walk criss-crosses the United States in search of...

On or about the 6th of April 2010, the Icelandic volcano known as Eyjafjallajokull began quietly churning and four days later, in an act of super-human magnanimity, Europe's governments opted en masse to close their air space indefinitely, marking the most-massive interruption to routine transportation in sixty five years and more poignantly, approximating the first time its many leaders had acted in unison against a common enemy, no less so quickly. Roughly 100,000 travelers were stranded, including you guessed it, us. Never has a plume of volcanic ash so punched above its weight, but when...
