Novelist Richard Livingstone is a jerk. He hates people and sees them only for what he can take from them. Besides eating food, his only pleasure in life is writing stories, but Richard has not published a book in years. When his wealthy wife Suzette threatens to divorce him because he has let his health deteriorate by gaining fifty pounds since losing his day job at the bank, Richard must agree to enter a weight management clinic if he wants to stay married to her, or he could refuse her demand and become penniless. But the Baines Clinic is no ordinary health spa. Upon his arrival, Richard notices something is wrong. From its eerie castle-like appearance to its army of ferocious Dobermans to the electrical fence surrounding it and the creepy graveyard outside its doors, not to mention its ghoulish head nurse and its insane head doctor with a penchant for performing experimental surgeries, it’s clear the Baines Clinic is hardly concerned with making people better. Eventually, Richard realizes he will lose more than just weight if he doesn’t escape this hotel of horrors. Can he learn to work with others to save his life, or will Richard be another nameless number that checks in but never checks out of the Baines Clinic? Horror. Available in paperback or Kindle eBook.
The Krakatoa Crisis
(Rusty Savoy, #1)
Hillside Academy for International Students is not what it seems. International criminals send their children to the prestigious school, not to study but to discretely trade secrets in a world under constant surveillance. Rife with skullduggery and international intrigue, the school is a playground for the world's top criminal minds. Sadly, Hillside's most respected faculty member, Dr. Crenshaw, a teacher of Latin, has suddenly died from a heart attack. And it couldn't have happened at a more opportune time for the CIA, as a Russian asset at the school is negotiating an arms deal with a resurgent ISIS group in Northern Syria; the deal has to be stopped to keep the Middle East from further instability, taking Turkey with it. In a desperate move, the CIA has to send an agent to Hillside to stifle the arms deal. But not just anyone. They need someone who can teach Latin and only Agent Rusty Savoy, former Cold Warrior and meticulous digital forensics expert, can do it because he's the CIA's only agent who still speaks the ancient language. Problem is Rusty just wants to retire and read his Latin classics, but international crime never retires and his country needs him to infiltrate the school. However, what Rusty and the CIA soon discover is that the world is in more danger than they previously thought. Now available in paperback at Amazon.com.
