After a career of writing military reports, I have written my first true work of fiction, TROUBLE a thriller/mystery starring a young female veteran named Jo.

BOOK NEWS!

The first chapter of TROUBLE has been accepted for Issue 2 of Hallaren Literary Magazine!

It’s a perfectly dreary Monday. Jo, commuting to work on the train to her less-than-satisfying job, overhears two people arguing in Russian, who then leave behind a bag. In the bag, inexplicably, is a kitten. It’s only after completely dumping out the bag that Jo finds the gun. Also on the train that day are two agents, Robin and Sam, following the Russians. When the bag and the gun disappear, Jo joins Sam and Robin to figure out – why Jo? What unfolds traces back to Jo’s father, a career Army officer, who died mysteriously in Afghanistan decades ago.
