Book excerpt: The Juicy Fruit Man is the story of Declan Noakes, a Vietnam veteran who chooses a life of itinerancy while he struggles to cope with the inner demons who seek his demise. Rejecting the chains and tethers others accept as the cost of living, Declan has no permanent address, no traditional employment, no car and no significant other. What he does have is almost a ton and a half of Thai Sticks, potent marijuana from Thailand, known on the streets of America as Juicy Fruit. Declan travels the routes of Amtrak at whim, selling his wares on a small scale. He's found that smoking weed pacifies the monsters, and he's established a loose network of friends across the nation, but what he hasn't found is a way to kill the demons. He'd smuggled the weed with the help of his cousin, Rachel, and another Army Ranger, Ben Fisher. What he sought on the tracks is peace, but life had other plans for him.After the war, Declan's confronted with Fisher's betrayal when he schemes to steal the marijuana. To further complicate matters, a pair of Amtrak detectives get wind of his cache, which is worth in excess of one million dollars. They team with a sometimes-crooked Chicago PD homicide detective and battle against Declan and Fisher, for the stash.The Juicy Fruit Man is the story of a good man who made poor choices, the price he paid, and his pain as he watches his cousin sacrifice her innocence to save them both. Declan is you; he is me; he is every man, a flawed hero who finds that he must first conquer himself before he can slay his demons.

Charlie Muffin, the British operative, is having enough problems without traveling to the hell-on-earth that is Siberia, but once there he begins to suspect that this might be just his sort of case. His phones are tapped, his own government seems to be against him, and his fellow agents are as uncooperative as the corpses they're investigating. When Charlie finally identifies the bodies, he finds he's unearthed a secret that all three governments will kill to put back in the ground--even if he has to go there with it.

Now a crime reporter at a Detroit newspaper, Julia tries to give others the closure she’s never found. Still, she lives in fear that whoever took her brother could come back. Nowhere seems safe—not even the secluded lake town where she plans to raise her children. And then, on the anniversary of Ben’s disappearance, Julia’s worst fears are realized when her two-year-old son, Will, is snatched from his bed. Convinced that the crimes are related, Julia tries to piece together memories from her final day with Ben. Julia knows she has hours at best to find Will alive, but the deeper she digs, the more personal and terrifying the battle becomes. “A gripping story that I read in one night—I could not put it down.” —Debbie Howells, author of The Bones of You

Book excerpt: Jesse, Son of God is a spoof on the story of Job with a twist. This time the Devil tells God, Sure Jesus loved you. He knew he was your Son. But Ill bet you, if you have another Son and you dont tell him of his divinity, then he couldnt find you with a map. So, being a sporting sort, the Lord agrees to the wager. Now its up to Satan to lead Jesse (Gods second son) away from the straight and narrow path, which isnt all that difficult since Jesse is easily distracted by girls, drugs, fishing and life in a Hawaiian paradise. However, just when the Prince of Darkness thinks hes won the bet, Jesse finds some way to express his love for God: a poem, a kind deed, an encounter with sharks. Youll enjoy experiencing life with Jesse, from his early days as a Kindergarten Casanova, to his contemplative Grandpa years when he realizes the more he knows, the more he knows he doesnt know. In between that time, Jesse will nearly burn down his town, escape from Moonie camp, call in a bomb scare to this church, fall in love a lot and prove hes more sinner than saint.
