The final chapter of the trilogy
“Publisher’s Weekly Praise!
“…beneath the suspense and danger is a deeply human love story about two damaged people who have survived a mob hitman, Jihadists, secessionists and climate destruction, trying to hold onto each other while the world around them spirals toward chaos…”
“Alby and Ginger’s romance is brimming with dialogue, comedic interludes and conflict…they are the driving force, and thankfully for thriller fans, they are well worth spending time with.”.— BlueInk Reviews

FUNERAL as top 10 read!
Book 1
Framing my life and writing is the fact that my father was a con man and mob money launderer who used his wages to pay for my very upright Quaker education, which emphasized a principled life. My natural tendency to embrace contradictions starts there and falls across all my writing.
Life was filled with wiretaps, FBI agents, and, finally, my father’s fall from grace and his federal trial. Moral ambiguity and redemption are very personal themes.
After several decades of a highly successful New York marketing career, film school, professional writing, public speaking, and travel blogging experience, throw in a big Irish-American family, stories were a big part of my life.
But it took the tragedy of losing my wife to cancer — and finding the true homage to their love living inside Ginger — to push me to finally embrace my lifelong dream to write novels.
Credit to the kind souls around me, and the beauty and kindness of my second country, Ireland (dual-citizen) in helping me heal.
I may write thrillers and mysteries…but just to be clear: Love wins.
Drew Anderson of TV’s Talking Up A Storm on my novel FUNERAL OF LIES

“The story is gripping, thought-provoking, and impossible to put down, leaving a lasting impression that makes returning to its pages irresistible.”
“Wow! My wife wondered why I came to bed so late. (2:30 in the morning) Here's was something I couldn't put down. Driving, compelling, nitty-gritty, something that's so real, it's hard to believe it's fiction. You're right there, part of the story from the beginning to the action packed end...”
