Produktbeschreibung

"A retired combat veteran leads discount heroes on a suicidal rescue attempt in the Caribbean."

An emotionally unavailable retired combat veteran living in south Florida gets a call in the middle of the night telling him his younger, Ugly American, brother has been kidnapped in the Dominican Republic. Paying the ransom is the last thing on his mind. With the eager assistance of a small group of discount heroes, he initiates a reckless and daring rescue attempt which will leave a trail of death, destruction and a little grand larceny in its wake. "The Caribbean has never been more deadly." This character driven, slightly dark and quirky with a dash of humor Action Adventure was inspired by something my older brother, a retired Marine Corps combat veteran, said to me before I traveled overseas to host a workshop, "Don't go over there, get in trouble and make me come get you out." One Way Tickets is a novella containing about 22,500 words-a good quick read for those who don't have the time for a big fat novel which can become the house guest that stayed too long. Enjoy the read.

Autorenporträt

Sent away to boarding schools to get a fancy education, the members of my immediate family proudly referred to me as bilingual for an uncanny ability to speak both Standard American English and my native Cracker. After graduation from a large brick and mortar university, a curious nature and an overactive imagination have led me down many paths in life: Former Peace Corps Volunteer, sales engineer, packaging design consultant, recovering golfer and more recently, an award-winning and produced scriptwriter. When not being fussed over by the woman who shares my life, I enjoy riding a large German motorcycle and writing character driven, slightly dark and quirky stories.
