Huckleberry Finn is back in a big way in this modern take on an old favorite. After falling into an Artic ice hole and becoming frozen solid for well over a century-and-a-half, Huck is discovered, thawed out, and brought back to life, unleashing his unique personality upon the 21st century. On the run from the group of shady scientists that brought him back to life, Huck seeks refuge in a small Indiana town, making friends with the Musketeers-a group of boys led by Johnny MacShea, whose family treats Huck like one of its own. As Huck adapts to the modern age, he turns the Musketeers' local ragtag football team into a juggernaut. But he also begins to realize that a mystery facing the MacShea family could mean grave danger. Huck's new life is jeopardized when parents of players on an opposing football team question his eligibility, leading to unwanted attention from the Department of Child Services. Meanwhile, Huck tries to resolve the peculiar mystery facing the MacSheas. Can Huck win the football championship, solve the mystery, and maintain his freedom?

Autorenporträt
My latest book, 21st CENTURY ADVENTURES OF HUCKLEBERRY FINN: TOM AND BECKY IN ST. PETERSBURG, is the second in a now two-book 21st Century Adventures of Huck Finn. The series unleashes Huck Finn's unique personality on the 21st century. In this adventure, Huck, going by Mark Finn, needs to dodge a shady cabal of scientists led by Dr. Knotts and avoid getting put in the system by the government, while trying to win Lucy Thoreau's hand by getting named Tom at St. Petersburg's annual Tom and Becky competition. Can Huck pull this inside straight? In 2006, I earned a Ph.D. in history from Purdue, and in 2013 I completed an MBA at DePaul. I'm an asst. men's basketball coach at Missouri State. My wife Christy is essentially superwoman, and together we have six children.
