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>

<span style="font-family:georgia, serif;font-size:12px;line-height:18px;">&quot;...a brilliant and stunningly original work, by far the best novel I read in 2008.&quot; <br />- <a href="http://www.alternativereel.com/includes/cult-fiction/display_review.php?id=00067" style="color:#666600;">Alternative Reel</a> <br /><br />&quot;as authentic as they come, experimental without trying to be intentionally obscure, dark without making you doubt humanity, smart and energetic. In short, it’s great writing.&quot; <br />&quot;...it’s about obsession, self-negation, love, even God (“The Everything”), making Broken Bulbs an entirely unique take on a subject. It’s a science fictional, hard-boiled, poetic vision of drug addiction and hamsters (read it!) A great addition to a genre that has never existed before.&quot; <br />- <a href="http://www.selfpublishingreview.com/2009/02/01/broken-bulbs-by-eddie-wright/" style="color:#666600;">Self-publishing Review</a> <br /><br />&quot;...this slim volume is the bastard child of Memento and William S Burroughs, absolutely not for the faint of heart nor for anyone seeking a nice, simple beach read.&quot; <br />- <a href="http://www.cclapcenter.com/2009/03/book_review_broken_bulbs_by_ed.html" style="color:#666600;">Jason Pettus, The Chicago Center for for Literature and Photography</a> <br /><br />&quot;An existentialist’s dream, the author has dug in deep and laid bare the raw emotion so candidly that we can actually feel the futility, the desperation, and the humour.&quot; <br /><br />&quot;Philip Dick would be proud.&quot; <br />- <a href="http://podpeep.blogspot.com/2009/01/review-broken-bulbs.html" style="color:#666600;">POD People</a> </span><div><span style="font-family:georgia, serif;"><span style="font-size:12px;line-height:18px;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span style="font-family:georgia, serif;"><span style="font-size:12px;line-height:18px;">&quot;...the absolute perfect spot-on portrait of the mind of an addict.&quot; <br />&quot;The first chapter alone is a nauseating churn of short choppy staccato sentences, random thoughts and actions, that read like beat poetry at a slam.&quot; <br />&quot;The whole thing is filled with crazy quips and one liners worthy of a high lighter so you can memorize and use them later.&quot; <br />- <a href="http://llbookreview.com/2008/09/review-34-broken-bulbs-by-eddie-wright/" style="color:#666600;">The LL Book Review</a> <br /><br />&quot;...strangely complex and fascinating.&quot; <br />- <a href="http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8va2F5ZXRyb3V0LmJsb2dzcG90LmNvbS8yMDA4LzA1L2Jyb2tlbi1idWxicy1ieS1lZGRpZS13cmlnaHQuaHRtbA==" style="color:#666600;">Kaye Trout's Book Reviews</a><br /></span></span></div>
