Wolves Behind You

Fab or Flab

My novels are reaching an international audience through Amazon!

Welcome to my new readers in…

…Australia
…Canada
…Germany
…Japan
…Poland
…and the United Kingdom.

Throughout Wolves Behind You, Sam and Sir Alec discuss the Knight’s Code.

             Sir Alec rested his hand on the hilt of his sword.  “That was quite courageous,

         my lad.  We live another day, to serve the King, to protect helpless damsels, and

         to battle the forces of evil – we brave knights of yore!”

 

What is the Knight’s Code?

Medieval knights were the first superheroes, famous for their extraordinary courage and gallantry.

A brief summary of their code of honor:

~~ To respect and serve God

~~ To obey orders

~~ To be honest, kind, and brave

~~ To assist widows and orphans

~~ To respect women

~~ To never refuse a challenge

~~ To fight the good fight

~~ To never give up

~~ To assist fellow knights

~~ To oppose and vanquish evildoers

~~ To refuse financial compensation for their assistance

In Wolves Behind You, Sam – a 21^st century knight – clashes with the most powerful Mafia family in California.  By living according to the Knight’s Code, he proves that one hero can make the difference in a dangerous world.

 

Who is Sam Donahan?  He’s the heart of the story. 

He’s the guy who climbs onto a window ledge and talks Natalie out of jumping to her death.

He’s the guy who tells Mia, the former call girl-turned-cook:

        “You must put all of those unpleasant memories behind you.”  He cast an invisible

     baseball over her shoulder.  “That’s where they belong.  Focus on the person you are

     now.  What will you be, and what will you do in the years ahead?  Who will make  

     those decisions?  You.”

He’s the guy who tells the wicked Cosmo Cappalletti:

          “‘Mene, mene, tekel upharsin…God has numbered the days of your kingdom and   

     brought it to an end, you have been weighed on the scales and found wanting, and    

     your kingdom is divided and given to your enemies.’”

Wolves Behind You 

 

My latest suspense thriller novel is live on Amazon!

 

Wolves Behind You is the fictional story of the Cappallettis, a wealthy and powerful Italian-American mob family. Just as the aging Cosmo Cappalletti -- the most feared name on the West Coast -- is about to pass his empire to his son, the beautiful call girls enslaved in his Beverly Hills mansion stage a revolt.

The story is told from the perspective of Sam Donahan, a young, idealistic priest. Will Sam convince the Cappallettis to end their hundred-year blood feud with a rival clan, or will the family continue to battle for control of L.A.’s dangerous underworld?

Adventures With Spell Check

I was running Spell Check on my latest novel, and everything was going swell.  Then it ground to a stop at selfie.  This brilliant software -- confident in its ability to identify all of the letters in a word as complex as onomatopoeia -- found one of the most commonplace words of the early 21^st century discombobulating.

 

Spell Check’s alternatives included elfie and Sheltie.

 

Elfie?  I ran a Google search.  Urban Dictionary calls it a selfie of an elf.  Elfie can also refer to an elephant taking its own photo -- which proves that animals can be just as silly as humans.

 

Sheltie.  An amazingly smart breed.  Can a Sheltie take a selfie?  Would she use her nose or her paws to push the button on a cell phone?

 

I worry about accidentally clicking on Change instead of Ignore and turning my stories into gibberish:

 

     “Look at this guy’s elfie.  He never smiles.  He looks like Buster Keaton.” 

 

    “She’s so vain.  Every time she goes to the salon, she posts a Sheltie on Instagram.”
