New Book on the Horizon: "Death in the Desert" Coming Soon

After a lot of hedging and stalling, "Death in the Desert," (formerly "The Cactus Murders") will debut sometime this fall. The book, too controversial and defamatory for most publishers and agents, will be, alas, self-published. The book deals with reality, folks. The reality is that there is a RIVER of narcotics flowing into this country from south of the border. The reality is that there are closer to 100,000,000 illegal aliens in this country than the paltry 12,000,000 claimed by the government. The reality is that we could see a Mexican flag waving at the White House if we do not get this situation under control.

For those who loved "Northern Escape," you'll find the same Detective Ben Thomas and State Trooper Chloe Littlebird. Both characters come to terms with their private life decisions in this book (the final Ben Thomas novel) and both make dramatic changes that will shock and surprise the reader. New to the story is Arizona Marshal Jake Starr, a man who straddles the law but steals your heart and your sympathies in the process.

You'll also meet the tragic AND heroic Juana Salcedo, and the spoiled, determined Stephanie
Thomas (yes, Ben's ex.)
