Description

<p>FBI agent Alexis Toles is dispatched to New Rochelle, New York, to investigate threatening letters sent to Congressman Christopher O’Brien, and to protect his ex-wife, Cassidy, and six-year-old son, Dylan. But when she gets to New Rochelle, Alex discovers that there is more to the situation than simple stalking or political agendas; she finds that she has growing romantic feelings for Cassidy—and that the feelings are mutual.</p><p>As Alex and Cassidy explore their budding romance, they must surmount many obstacles in explaining their relationship to those around them, including Dylan. All the while, the investigation continues, and the disturbing, convoluted, and complicated web surrounding the threats begins to unravel, placing the characters’ lives in grave danger.</p><p><i>Intersection</i> is a taut political thriller that combines the action and suspense found in hit television shows like <i>24</i> with the insight and drama found in the widely popular fiction of LGBT authors such as R. E. Bradshaw and Stacey D’Erasmo. It is sure to appeal to fans of intrigue, mystery, and romance, and to provide positive role models for marginalized groups and relationships.</p>

Story Behind The Book

York 1990. It was at a St. Johns’ College Rowing Club meal at The Merchant Venturers’ Hall, that my imagination was fired. What was the Company of Merchant Venturers? They were merchants who went on voyages around northern Europe to buy and sell cargoes, bringing back to York these exotic goods – such as furs. A venture was a risk. They were taking risks. It’s where we get the term venture capital today. Someone puts this money at risk by investing in a new idea. Their coat of arms carries the motto “Dieu nous donne bonne aventure,” which I have since thought of as something one can live by, “God, give us good fortune”, or as I mistranslated it, “God, give us a good adventure!” The idea of placing one’s savings and wealth into a voyage and setting off at the mercy of the elements seemed to be incredibly brave. Anyone going off to sea is very brave in my opinion. I wanted to write a story that reflected the unpredictability of the sea.
