 Montparnasse. Paris, 1919. The Great War has ravaged Europe and the Paris neighborhood of Montparnasse has become the center of the artistic universe. Picasso, Coco Chanel, Cocteau, Modigliani, Soutine and other creative giants all coexist there, some thriving, others not.

L'Amerique cover L’Amérique. The Amazon Bestseller! “An immigrant story told from a child’s viewpoint, Jeanot’s escapades in the land of miracles are wonderful and wonderfully rendered. Sometimes naïve, other times wise in the ways of the very young, L’Amérique is rich in surprises and delights. It’s a book worth lingering over.”
– David Robbins, New York Times bestselling author of War of the Rats; The Low Bird

Filled with fascinating characters, a fantastic sense of time and place, and shot through with threads of rich humor. At the close, our young narrator is in America, awaiting an unsure future in the land of hope. The reader waits eagerly for what happens next.”

Thirst cover

Thirst. The Number 1 Amazon Bestseller!

The two African guys grabbed him, real Africans from Africa, you could tell by their kind-of British accents. They knocked on his door and he opened it while talking on the cordless. He thought it was the paperboy come to collect. The taller African hit him a quick, vicious blow just below the chest and Herbie let go of the phone; the second guy caught it before it hit the ground. Then the first guy hit him again three, four, five times in the face, breaking his nose and opening a gash over the right eye. Then Herbie passed out.

The Africans found a pillow case in the linen closet, a garbage can bag in the kitchen. They slid the garbage bag over Herbie’s head, left it loose so he wouldn’t suffocate, slid the pillow case on top of that. They carried him down the service stairs to the alley behind the building and dumped him in a battered Chevy van with a magnetic sign that said Mr. Ratchet! Plumbing & Heating.
