Story Behind The Book

Reviews

I’ve read your stuff and I like it. Keep it up. Keep it up - John Bosford<br /><br />Chapter 14 struck a chord with me.  There was something about it that touched a resonance inside me. I've never been to sea or in a storm.  But I was there that night.  Something special about this author.  - Tom Jenkins<br /><br />It was a fast read, wasted no time on the trivia one sees in so much writing.  Tha characters were unusual and each new one added his/her own personality.  There are some sick people in this book.  Howie Morgan is unforgettable as just such a sicko. - Bill Monahagn<br /><br />If you like a book that just keeps growing as you read.  This is it.  Jonathon Trowes<br />
