Roads Less Traveled

I have written my second novel, “A Christmas Story.” Here’s a summary from the book cover:

“A Christmas Story” is the adventurous tale of three young brothers who discover a hidden icon while staying at their grandparent’s house over the holidays. Intrigued by the mysterious image of St. Nicholas on the picture, they secretly drive an old snowmobile into town to find out more about it. There, they encounter a giant Russian, who recognizes the true value of the object, and he and his henchman kidnap one of the boys, leaving only the two remaining siblings and Santa Claus himself to save the hostage! Yet even after a daring rescue attempt, a magical sleigh ride, and a wild chase through town, the boys are even more surprised to find that things are not always as they seem, and that even the most outwardly monstrous people are not really monsters at all. “A Christmas Story” is written with a humorous, contemporary flair, but the underlying message, about the magic of Christmas and the miraculous healing power of faith and love, is timeless.

Just for a minute, put yourself in the shoes of a central Bankster. Your life is pretty good…no, your life is actually very good! You live wherever you want: a penthouse in Manhattan, a flat in London, an estancia in Argentina…there is no home that you cannot afford and where you are not welcome! You have women at your beck and call, you have more money than you know how to spend, your yacht is longer than many cruise ships, and if you play your cards right, you could even be knighted by royalty and feted by the press, all for the simple decision to print tons of money at someone else’s expense. Not a bad gig, eh? Think about it – If you had that kind of wealth and power, you’d probably guard it jealously too, right?

I have written my first published novel, Downsized, and it’s now available for purchase via Amazon:

The easiest way to describe the book is via the book jacket blurb about it:

“Downsized is a novel for our times. It depicts the story of three friends who struggle through hardship and adventure after they lose their jobs in a corporate downsizing event and are forced to reinvent their lives, both as expats in Costa Rica and as outcasts in the USA. Soon, they find themselves confronted by corruption, betrayal, blackmail, and a looming economic crisis that forces them to put everything–even their lives–on the line. Written in an earthy, contemporary style that combines elements of literary fiction, humor, travel, suspense, and psychological analysis, Downsized blends a variety of genres in the telling of this fascinating story of ordinary people facing extraordinary circumstances as they “take the road less traveled by.”

I hope y’all will enjoy the read!
