Bringing Home The Lambs - The story of Mark Miller and his American Association of Lost Children, the only completely free child recovery for parents whose children have been illegally abducted by the other parent. Miller has saved over 120 children and a case from 2008 where he rescued a child from South Korea is being made into a movie on Lifetime Television.
Street Guys: A Novel of Wall Street (in development as a TV series by the television division of the Fox Studio until the market fell apart in late 2008), about how the market was heroically turned around in 1987 and the heretofore unknown regular people who work on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange. Parenting Myself - Lessons about fathering and family learned despite the terrible examples of all the main male role models in my life. Dream Life - Novel of a man devastated by tragic events who pieces together his life through dreams and a mysterious blonde woman who may be a precognitive dream, or the anima/muse within himself. The Judas Wife - A heart-wrenching love story told by the sister-in-law of a misunderstood man who weathers an explosion of insanity and horror from his wife, keeping his children protected and sane while following the simple maxim, "What would Jesus do?" Rainy Day Tales - Book of short stories, the majority of which were previously published in American magazines. |
