"The Horseman"

Synopsis: THE HORSEMAN opens in 1964, while the shot that rang around the world (JFK’s assassination) is still echoing throughout Turkey. During the course of the novel, the young American woman Ariadne and her Turkish husband, Burhan, will battle destructive forces as they strive to build their own version of Camelot in the nation’s capital, Ankara. At a time when Turkey is the blood-soaked battling ground of divergent Eastern and Western interests, and the clandestine Kurdish insurgency is bubbling away like the proverbial witches’ cauldron, destiny has marked Burhan, an avowed Kemalist (progressive and pro-Western without losing the national ID), for leadership in this beleaguered nation. After spanning Turkey, Ireland, New York and Mekka, the Horseman concludes in Tarsus,Turkey, where, at long last, love and justice prevail and an ancient moral debt rooted in the mists of Chatalhoyuk, an 8,000 years old Megalithic town, is repaid in full — because sooner or later, in some sphere which manifests itself in God’s own good time, the Harvest is gathered, and thus, Whatsoever a man soweth, so shall he also reap....


"The Scorpion Child", sequel to The Horseman

Synopsis: This is a contemporary suspense/thriller about reincarnation that flows between California, New York and Istanbul, from yesterday to a misty tomorrow that may never dawn. It is the sequel to The Horseman and part of the Lands of the Morning Series. The heroine, Ariadne, an American expatriate novelist married to a Turk, lives in a dangerous, exotic world. There is also an American stage and screen star, Daniel Saxon, and Burhan, an advisor to the Turkish military junta. The plot is a cinemascopic reel of romance, high-stakes terrorism, sex, intrigue, and subtle undercurrents of mysticism and reincarnation, the concept of the latter put forward in a no-nonsense, thought-provoking manner.


"Ride The Eagle, an Electric novel about Newspapers in NYC"

Synopsis: Passions are at war in New York City Labor Union Strike When Passions Are At War With Principles! A powerful, unique novel for every woman caught between her career and principles. Caroline Keller is the first woman labor representative for the nation's largest newspaper - the "New York Mirror." She is the fastest in the fast lane, racing straight to the top. Until she finds herself bargaining not only for her employer, but also her heart. Opponents from the outset, Caroline Keller (Management) and Lester Gordon (Labor Union's President- of Cherokee American roots) are each determined to win the battles that explode amid the electric tensions of major NYC newspapers' union/management negotiations.
